A Quick Smoke With Ed and Tom – La Aroma De Cuba

This is a new segment called “A Quick Smoke with Ed and Tom.” This video runs about 15 minutes. The name explains it all. The idea is to review smaller ring gage and length cigars in a quick, to the point format. Ed and I figured a little extra content couldn’t hurt, so we did a quick review of the La Aroma De Cuba.

I am not sure how often we’ll do these, but we are shooting for one quick smoke in addition to a full length review each month. These segments will be featured here, and on St. Pete Pipe & Cigars. Let us know what you think. Is it a good or bad idea? Should the reviews be shorter or longer? All feedback is welcome, good or bad.

Hey Tom, great idea! I’m looking forward to more frequent reviews from you and Ed. I’m currently at work, so the video is blocked. But will be sure to watch this when I get home.

Good review, as always. Any idea what you guys plan on reviewing next?

Great Review. The more the better in my opinion.

I agree with everybody else in that more Tom and Ed is always better. I like the shorter format as something different and the length was perfect.
Leave it to Tom to be the non conformist… halves instead of thirds. sheesh LOL

Awesome short and sweet review! I will keep this on my short list to give a try, it sounds good even for us mild-medium lovers!

Thought/Brainfart – how about including a link that would let people buy a 5-pack from Ed’s shop? Maybe it would be too much trouble to mail them all out, but its just an idea.

Hey tom and Ed
I like the short review as much as the long one, you just would have to make them more often.

Knightrid – I’m not sure if Ed can compete with the online shops when it comes to cheap prices though. Although I’ve known him to ship to people all over the US if you give a call. One thing Ed has over the big online shops is… Ed. Fortunately he’s local so I’m set.

Homebrewer – We were going to do the review in 3rds initially. You went into the review thinking it would be in 3rds, but no you get halves. You never know what we’ll do next. That’s how we roll. Seriously though, cutting out a segment basically keeps the review time down to under 20 minutes. We basically copied Jerry’s format from The Stogie Review. For the larger cigars, of course we’ll stick with the standard “Copy Walt” format.

Adam – Not sure what is up next, but I think Ed has an idea. I just can’t remember at the moment. It was for something new or unreleased. Whatever it was, I remember I liked it quite a bit (It was a sample).

To everyone else -
Wow thanks for all the comments. Ed if your reading this, it looks like the “Quick Smoke” review went over well. We’ll have to do more.

Good times.
