Drew Estate Website Review

May 17, 2008

This website review comes as a special request from Jerry over at Stogie Review. He had some frustrations finding information on a cigar he’d recently smoked and wanted to call them out.

AVO Cigars Website Review

March 14, 2008

The AVO Website is another one to add to my list of frustrating cigar manufacturer websites. While not a terrible design it does have some flaws, and hasn’t been kept up to date. Cigars: C The only thing I do like is the fact that they show pictures of all the sizes. Other than that [...]

Carlos Torano Website Review

February 29, 2008

Torano has long been one of my favorite brands. Denise reviewed the Reserva Decadenica a few days after the RTDA and when looking for information on the cigar it wasn’t listed yet on Torano’s Website. It is long overdue but I’m finally reviewing Torano’s Site.
