Tobacco hasn't grown in Florida since 1890 when Jeff Borysiewicz decided to change that in 2013 when he planted tobacco on 8 acres of farmland in Clermont, Florida. Today his tobacco is used in cigars by some top cigar manufacturers including Drew Estate who produced the Florida Sun Grown featuring tobacco grown in the Sunshine state. The cigar was blended by Willy Herrera and we tell if a cigar containing Florida Sun Grown tobacco is worthy of The AshHoles.
We will also have The Victor Sinclair 55 Top 5 List and all the madness you come to expect from The Ash Holes as we broadcast live on location from Studio 21 Podcast Cafe high above Two Guys Smoke Shop in Salem, New Hampshire on the United Podcast Network.

Good things come in threes like the hosts of The Ashholes EdSullivan, Aaron Noonan and Michael Dimare. Then there are anniversaries, and today we celebrate our 3rd anniversary. So when we got together to decide what to smoke the answer was obvious, Atabey Tubes. These sticks come in a 3-pack making it the ultimate triple-play. We fire up the Atabey Misticos Tubes from Nelson Alfonso that measures 6 3/4 x 56.

This week on the Ash Holes we smoke a cigar that was blended to represent the taste of Cuban Cigars, but the question is do they? Can a cigar that costs under $3 replicate the old world Cuban cigar profile? Are these bundles worth the price of admission? The Ash Holes light up a cigar that won’t break the bank and tell you if they are worth every penny.

In 2012 J.R. Dominguez and Scott Weeks would launch their company Iconic Leaf Cigars and the brand Recluse and the secret to their success is the special fermentation process they use for all their tobacco with each cigar being rolled entubar for a perfect draw every time. Accord to Scott Weeks their cigars are meant to be a mini-vacation and what better name for their San Andres wrapped cigar than Los Cabos. It’s a cigar you don’t need to babysit or change its diapers. This week The AshHoles fire one up and Ed Sullivan Aaron Noonan and Michael Dimare share their thoughts on Recluse Amadeus Los Cabos.

Founded in 2011 by Reinier Lorenzo HVC was started as a way of paying homage to Havana City, where Reinier lived for most of his life. The HVC goal is to keep the Cuban tradition of hand-made cigars alive and well with products that are inspired by the cigar tradition of Cuba, specifically Havana City, while incorporating the customs of their adopted U.S. home. On today’s show we fire up one of the hottest brands from HVC, the HVC Broadleaf which as you would guess features a wrapper from Connecticut.

As we approach Columbus Day we decide to light up the Toscano 1492 Anno Domini cigar which was launched as a limited edition in 2007. It was a success, but it wasn't until 2013 that it became possible to source the same type of tobacco of the highest quality from Tennessee and so offer the 100% pure American tobacco cigar on a continuous basis. And it is precisely the use of these premium Tennessee tobaccos that inspires its name and creation: a tribute to the discovery of America.

There is nothing like the classics and Indian Motorcycles are as classic as they come. It’s a piece of Americana that one can’t help but admire. However, when it comes to the cigar, Indian Motorcycles Maduro is anything but a classic Maduro. This week we fire one up and let you know if it should be considered a classic cigar. We will discuss how brand owner Phil Zanghi has ties to the company and it is an interesting story.
