Cigar Weekly

I'm sitting here at Metro Cigars in Germantown, WI again. They're having an event today and Jonathan Drew himself is showing up. I brought a few things for him to sign.

I'm such a nerd. I never get star-struck with regular celebrities, but get all excited when I'm about to meet a major player in the cigar industry.

The only non-Acid cigars they have out on display right now are the Cheateau Real and Liga Privada #9. I have plenty of the Real at home, so I splurged and picked up a few of the Liga Privadas.

Jon signed some collector's stuff that Cigarella gave me, then gave me a free Dynasty. I was surprised - generally I'm not into Acids anymore, but this is a damned good cigar. It doesn't have the sweetened tip that most acids have. It had a maduro wrapper only down to the band, the rest being natural. Really interesting concept and I expect it to change dramatically once I hit that maduro wrapper.

Rich, were you able to pick me up that Chateau Maduro sampler?
