Diesel Fool’s Errand Simple Fool is the second entry of the Fool’s Errand Trilogy line and another collaboration with AJ Fernandez.
Simple Fool uses a dark Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper encasing Nicaraguan habano binder and filler leaves. The result is an exquisite medium to full-bodied smoke with flavor notes of espresso, earth and spices with a rich creaminess throughout. It’s important to note that all the tobacco in these great cigars is proprietary to AJ’s farms. Many smokers feel it pairs perfectly with Bourbon, Stout beer and Coffee.
BEWARE, when these limited edition jewels are gone….they’re gone!

Crowned Heads Le Careme Limited Edition 2023 is another amazing collaboration between Jon Huber and Ernest Perez-Carrillo.
It’s important to point out that this LE contains the same blend of the original La Careme entry. The big difference is the old school pig tail cap and its round size as opposed to box pressing. With attention to detail, a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper encases an Ecuadorian Sumatra binder and vintage fillers from Nicaragua. Seeing that this particular Le Carême “Pastelitos” LE for 2023 consist of only 1,250 boxes, don’t wait too long to enjoy this beauty. This cigar looks and smells delicious to say the least.
The Crowned Heads Le Careme Limited Edition 2023 comes in a 4 x 54 size short robusto in 24 count boxes. You can also grab a four pack to try them out. How can you resist!

Montecristo Pepe Mendez Pilotico is a collaboration between Altadis U.S.A’s Grupo de Maestros team and Dominican tobacco company José Mendez & Co.
With attention to detail, the Pepe Mendez Pilotico is the definition of expert craftsmanship. While it’s one of the higher priced Montecristos, it’s an extremely good one. To put it another way, this vintage blend is a flavor bomb! This medium bodied smoke yields heaps of natural tobacco taste and aromatic smoke. Cigar Coop rates it a respectable 92 and describes it perfectly. “While the Montecristo Pilotico Pepe Mendez Toro has excellent flavor, there is one thing that really surprises me – and that is the complexity and change-ups this cigar delivers. If you like a cigar that undergoes a lot of flavor transitions, then this is a cigar for you.”
If you’re a fan of boutique blends and Montecristo cigars, this one should be in your humidor.
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Sumatra
Binder: Dominican
Filler: Dominican Pilotico, Nicaraguan

Blanco Nine
The NINE is made with the finest Oscuro Corojo wrapper grown in Nicaragua. The wrapper, which has been aged for a minimum of three years, has been masterfully blended with an exquisite binder from the world famous Jalapa Valley in Nicaragua. To achieve the complex and sophisticated taste and aroma of this full-flavored and full-bodied cigar, three different ligero leaves are used from various Nicaraguan tobaccos as filler. This cigar has a dark, oily and marbleized colored wrapper. There are notes of wood and cocoa on the unlit foot with big flavors right off the light. Smooth draw with clouds of rich smoke. Earth, coffee and spices dominate the palate, quickly followed by a full and long- lasting body. This is a big smoke with a big profile. After 8 attempts at blending this cigar the ninth was perfection! The NINE is a ten.
From the roller trainee made Curly Heads to the famed Chateau Fuente line and the more than dozen style in between, the Arturo Fuente Maduro Series of great cigars have been pleasing countless smokers for decades. This vast collection of Dominican made violas which also includes the Gran Reserva brands varies in wrapper, binder and filler contents as well as prices. The only difference between these Maduros and the Natural line is the dark and oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. The result is more of a richer more robust taste.
If you’ve tried them, you know what we’re saying. If you haven’t and you’re a fan of darker smokes, what are you waiting for?

La Flor Dominicana N.A.S. is one of the most interesting additions to this great company’s lineup.
To begin with, for what it’s worth, N.A.S. officially stands for Nasty Ass Shit! Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s get down to what this quirky cigar is all about. Most notably, this old school cheroot is made entirely of Dominican Pelo de Oro Ligero tobacco. With that being said, no doubt this cigar is going to be a powerhouse of sorts.
When Cigar Coop rated it at a very respectable 90, they were spot on. ” While I was fulling expecting a spice bomb, the sweetness I got off this cigar was a pleasant surprise. I can only infer the Pelo de Oro tobacco was working its magic delivering both the flavor and strength. Overall, this is the kind of cigar that is not for the novice.”
N.A.S is only produced in 20 Count Boxes of 5 1/2 x 42 sized Cheroots similar to a Corona. If you’re a of La Flor and haven’t tried N.A.S., you’re missing out on another great cigar from this iconic company.
Wrapper: Dominican Pelo de Oro Ligero
Binder: Dominican Pelo de Oro Ligero
