- 3:36best thing on at 02: I'm going to say it until you.
- 3:37best thing on at 02: I'm going to load it.
- 3:38best thing on at 02: Provide one.
- 3:39best thing on at 02: Yes.
- 3:40best thing on at 02: And then he won't say it.
- 3:41best thing on at 02: We are going to go camping tonight with a wildfire takeover.
- 3:45best thing on at 02: Oh, good, I forgot.
- 3:48best thing on at 02: So strap on and hang in tight. We're going to have fun. But don't worry, if you miss anything, you can download the full episode from anywhere you listen to your podcast. We are everywhere that you want to be. We're like American Expressive cigar reviews. We're everywhere.
- 4:04best thing on at 02: Never leave home without know.
- 4:06best thing on at 02: I don't know.
- 4:07best thing on at 02: That was actually Visa's ad campaign and, ah, he just attributed it.
- 4:10best thing on at 02: I don't like him.
- 4:11best thing on at 02: M leaning into the microphone and saying, strap on and hang on tight.
- 4:15best thing on at 02: Hang in.
- 4:16best thing on at 02: Yeah. Those are words that we should not especially purposefully flip.
- 4:21best thing on at 02: Those two words just for you.
- 4:23best thing on at 02: Just for me.
- 4:23best thing on at 02: Just for you.
- 4:25best thing on at 02: It's not that Kentucky education.
- 4:27best thing on at 02: Well, I don't want to talk about it.
- 4:29best thing on at 02: Staring at your magnet, I can't keep a straight face.
- 4:31best thing on at 02: Is that like Burgoo?
- 4:32best thing on at 02: Yeah.
- 4:33best thing on at 02: There we go. That is correct.
- 4:36best thing on at 02: Before we dive into the shallow end of the Pole without our helmet, just remember, if you are a cigar newbie, fret not.
- 4:42best thing on at 02: We got you covered on our cigar one on one episode where all of this cigar speak is decoded. Just search, sip studs and Smoke Cigar 101 in that search bar and episode should pop right up. And if it don't, contact your local Internet provider.
- 4:54best thing on at 02: Yeah, that episode does not contain the word. So strap on and hang in tight. No, that does not work.
- 5:00best thing on at 02: No, it doesn't, but it will in the future when we record it again. So good old boy Mike gets the honors of our smokes rating since we haven't heard much from him lately.
- 5:08best thing on at 02: Yeah, thAt's for sure. Well, uh, we'll be smoking and discussing these cigars and rating them with our sips, suds and smokes rating, plus our signature sound.
- 5:19best thing on at 02: Now, I've been challenged by our cast here to channel an evangelical preacher who has come down from the mountain. I'm asking all of you, I want you to walk up, uh, to your headphones.
- 5:34best thing on at 02: Yes.
- 5:35best thing on at 02: Uh, I want you to lay your hands on your ears. I'm telling you it's coming.
- 5:40best thing on at 02: Mhm.
- 5:40best thing on at 02: Our smoke's number one rating, is this sucked even before it was lit?
- 5:47best thing on at 02: Testify. Preach it, brother. Preach it.
- 5:50best thing on at 02: I know that we've been talking here about the love that you should feel towards cigars. Tonight.
- 5:55best thing on at 02: I want you to sit down, think about what you might be doing out in the woods while you're hearing the creatures come along gracefully. And think about our smokes, too. Rating. I, uh, would not even begin to smoke that again. Say it, brother.
- 6:13best thing on at 02: Say it. Come on, brother.
- 6:16best thing on at 02: I know that you're thinking that you can't reach deep into your wallet. Reach it. Find another ten or $20 bill to.
- 6:24best thing on at 02: Get the cigar that you really, really want.
- 6:28best thing on at 02: You have a smokes three rating, which is. Where are they?
- 6:34best thing on at 02: I need a box of this.
- 6:36best thing on at 02: Oh, Lord, give us a box.
- 6:37best thing on at 02: Won't he do it?
- 6:39best thing on at 02: Sounds like he might be coveting.
- 6:41best thing on at 02: Oh, don't covet that ever loving cigar, brother.
- 6:44best thing on at 02: All right, so today we're going to be reviewing the full lineup. It's a gift from Wildfire.
- 6:50best thing on at 02: We're going to start with the intro. We're going to move to the revivalists.
- 6:54best thing on at 02: Have adequate, uh, rum over here.
- 6:57best thing on at 02: We're going to wander around the wanderer and, uh. Arteois.
- 7:03best thing on at 02: Did I say that right?
- 7:04best thing on at 02: Artois. Artwi.
- 7:06best thing on at 02: Artawas.
- 7:07best thing on at 02: Arteus.
- 7:08best thing on at 02: Arteois. You know, I have such a hard time, Jeremy. I'm sorry, but I have such a hard time saying that I wish to register a complete get in line. There's a new single release that has come out well, that was released at the PCA that he did a collab with ammunition, whiskey. And we're going to be going over that one as well. So let's get into it. Let's get this intro start this track. Benjamin. Let's hear it.
- 7:34best thing on at 02: So, as our brother Jeremy, uh, would remind us, wildfire cigars exist to remind us all. It's just a cigar. But it's not just a cigar.
- 7:42best thing on at 02: That's right.
- 7:43best thing on at 02: It's the stories we share, the moments we live, and the memories we make.
- 7:46best thing on at 02: That's right. That's why we do what we do.
- 7:48best thing on at 02: And honestly, those are what matter. Those are what change us. And those are what last forever. Simply put, Wildfire Cigars is about living life to its fullest and remembering what is important. That the leaves will burn out, but our stories will live.
- 8:04best thing on at 02: Love it. I love it. If you guys have not checked out his website, I encourage you to go check out his website and then you can tell us.
- 8:12best thing on at 02: Drew and I are not at the marketing meeting.
- 8:14best thing on at 02: That's right. And you please, in the comments, feel free to tell us that you watched all of the camp counselor videos.
- 8:23best thing on at 02: 100%, man. And you want to talk about somebody that's got the branding down to AC, dude. Nailed it. The website is an absolute masterpiece.
- 8:34best thing on at 02: He is very consistent.
- 8:36best thing on at 02: Very consistent.
- 8:37best thing on at 02: This man has a storyline and I'll.
- 8:41best thing on at 02: Tell you, I'll tell you in real life. This is him in real life.
- 8:45best thing on at 02: Absolutely.
- 8:45best thing on at 02: I spent some time with him over the past couple of weeks and, man, we did a chats episode which will come out soon. Our first video chats episode was cigars.
- 8:55best thing on at 02: Oh, that's scary.
- 8:56best thing on at 02: Yeah, I know. And it's recorded in 4K.
- 8:59best thing on at 02: Yeah. Because you definitely have the face for Radio Barger.
- 9:01best thing on at 02: I'm going to tell you too. I've been kicking and screaming about that for years.
- 9:05best thing on at 02: It's going to be awesome. And there might have been bourbon involved.
- 9:07best thing on at 02: Yeah. More rum at seat, too.
- 9:10best thing on at 02: So, yeah, we're going to start with, uh, the intro today.
- 9:13best thing on at 02: Um. Uh, this is what it says on the website about the intro. Uh, this is Jeremy's inspiration. A memorable song takes you on a journey. It starts out and progresses through the different movements, carrying you away to different dimensions.
- 9:28best thing on at 02: This three part series is intended to do the same by taking some familiar and unique tobaccos, showcasing them in a completely unique way, giving you a memorable smoking experience. Uh, the intro is the first release of this limited series. Uh, so the intro is going to be Ecuadorian, Connecticut wrapped, uh, over a corojo binder, uh, and a halapa, Pennsylvania, and Esteli Filler. Um, this is also, uh, what I would consider to be in Big Boy, Connecticut country.
- 9:58best thing on at 02: Big boy.
- 9:59best thing on at 02: Yeah, absolutely. Uh, the rapper on this thing, we mentioned it, um, in our last episode about how, um, the Agonorsa. Yeah, the Agonorsa episode about how don't let the shade of the wrapper fool you. Don't let know, uh, they come in many different strengths and flavor profiles.
- 10:19best thing on at 02: This, uh, one is an absolute crusher of a Connecticut shade for me. You think it's going to be creamy and then the spice just kind of hits you consistent, um, earthiness. Tea and cream notes throughout. This cigar for me, medium, full body. Get a lot of those white pepper floral notes on this cigar.
- 10:38best thing on at 02: Yeah, for sure.
- 10:39best thing on at 02: Uh, especially on the retro. Hell, a lot of like, brown butter and oak tones. This thing's got some body to it. Um, and I really enjoyed this smoke. This surprised me, honestly.
- 10:53best thing on at 02: Yeah. Um.
- 10:56best thing on at 02: I can't say enough about how much, um, every cigar is its own subjective taste. But, um, don't judge a cigar by its wrapper.
- 11:09best thing on at 02: I'm telling you. Right. The single on the album.
- 11:13best thing on at 02: Uh, this is a heck of an intro, right?
- 11:15best thing on at 02: This is something that would definitely get you jazzed up for the rest of the album, if you will.
- 11:20best thing on at 02: Jazz hands.
- 11:21best thing on at 02: Yeah, this is a heck of a start. Um, and even if you are a beginner, even though this thing has a bit of body on it, I think it's got the complexity, uh, that would actually kind of make you maybe turn you into a cigar smoker if you weren't a habitual smoker.
- 11:37best thing on at 02: Yeah, it's great. I have some notes on it, but, Drew, what did you think?
- 11:41best thing on at 02: Um, I was just listening to Ben wax poetic, and I agree with basically everything that you said.
- 11:50best thing on at 02: Um, it's just I'm on the opposite end of it from a standpoint of I also assumed that the rapper was going to be lighter than it ended up being, and it wasn't as pleasant of a surprise for me as I would imagine it was for you. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the smoke. Um, it was just one of those cases where I lit it up, and I specifically started with the one that appeared to be, to me, sort of the lightest because it looked like I was going to be getting into something that might not be that I would call the most enjoyable smoking experience as I worked my way through the line knowing good old boy barger. Um, so I, uh, was a bit apprehensive as I got into it, but I found myself really enjoying it.
- 12:35best thing on at 02: Um, it fit right into that middle sweet spot that I like.
- 12:41best thing on at 02: The medium cigar, if you will. It's not a Maduro, but there's enough going on, there's enough spice, there's enough complexity that you're not feel like you're just smoking air.
- 12:54best thing on at 02: I think this is a cigar you travel with too, right? You keep a couple, you hand off to a friend.
- 12:59best thing on at 02: It's got enough to it to where you'd be interested to come back to have another one for sure.
- 13:06best thing on at 02: Drink wise, I 100% agree with that. And I'll give you guys my notes right after this break that we're going to have with our sponsors. But until then, I'm just going to let you listen to some crickets as we watch the campfire rolling.
- 13:27best thing on at 02: And we're back. I'm just going to share my notes on the intro with you guys because I really enjoyed this cigar.
- 13:33best thing on at 02: Why don't you remind everybody what we're talking about?
- 13:35best thing on at 02: Uh, we are talking about the intro. Thanks for keeping me on the tracks there, Mike from wildfire cigars. So the wildfire intro, I said it was mellow, off the light and that was that Connecticut that I really got a lot of that dry spice a little bit coming through with the dry draw that I do before I light a cigar. Um, I said for my humidification, I had a little trouble with my humidor at home, so it burned a little bit funny off the light, but it quickly fixed itself, um, halfway through, the spicy flavors kicked in, and it was a mouthful.
- 14:12best thing on at 02: And, ah, it finished just as strong as it began for me. I really love this cigar.
- 14:19best thing on at 02: Uh, that brings up an interesting point that you made. It did finish it as it began, really m it kind of blew my mind as I was smoking through these, how consistent the flavor was through the entire cigar, and might not have liked all of the flavors that I had on some of the heavier cigars, but they were consistent. Uh, consistent.
- 14:40best thing on at 02: I think the question I wanted to throw out. So I did not smoke this cigar. But I'm looking at the choices that they made here, and it's interesting. I would have some. I think it should taste like X, y or very.
- 14:55best thing on at 02: This is a sneaky Connecticut, is how I would describe this, because with those choices, I think of Ecuadorian Connecticut as being. It really is not a vanilla bomb.
- 15:06best thing on at 02: Um, is one of the main things that is out of the Ecuadorian Connecticut as opposed to some other, uh, origins where they might be growing. Connecticut, where it's going to be very sweet and light. But aside from the corojo, uh, when I look at the filler of being this very interesting blend, um.
- 15:29best thing on at 02: I would.
- 15:30best thing on at 02: Have thought that it would have been this interesting balance between something that was neutral, um, with something that is a little bit spicy, definitely.
- 15:39best thing on at 02: But not to the point where you would say, wow, this is spicy. At some point, either when it was lit or in the midpoint, um, just based on.
- 15:48best thing on at 02: I didn't smoke this like I mentioned earlier, you will. But I think my question to all of you is, do you think that that would be a profile based on what you're seeing, and then how does that compare with your actual experience between that?
- 16:04best thing on at 02: I really think that the Connecticut wrapper in that, with the corojo binder. I think the Corojo binder is what really shines through this.
- 16:12best thing on at 02: And I think that that Connecticut gives it that mild sensibility of approachability to it.
- 16:18best thing on at 02: Approachability? Sensibility. I know it's two big words at once.
- 16:21best thing on at 02: I'm sorry. It's all my education has for today.
- 16:24best thing on at 02: Um, but anyway, let's talk about ratings.
- 16:27best thing on at 02: What do you guys got for ratings?
- 16:30best thing on at 02: That's across the board of three.
- 16:32best thing on at 02: It's a good rating for me. I think it's great.
- 16:36best thing on at 02: It is an interesting question that Mike brought up, though.
- 16:39best thing on at 02: Um.
- 16:42best thing on at 02: Um, to clarify, I think you were asking if the sort of dissociation of what we expected by looking at it continued through the line.
- 16:56best thing on at 02: Only time will tell. Next, 45 minutes.
- 16:59best thing on at 02: Very true.
- 17:00best thing on at 02: That's right. So what blows me away is that you put a spicy cigar, you gave it a rating of a three. I'm just flabbergasted.
- 17:09best thing on at 02: I don't hate spicy cigars. I don't like cigars that feel like they're one note to me, though, and this didn't feel like one.
- 17:17best thing on at 02: So as we're talking. Yeah. As we're talking about notes and music, it reminds me of our time we spent in, uh, PCA with them.
- 17:25best thing on at 02: We had a really good time at PCA. Myself and Benjamin and, uh, good old boy Justin went to a dive bar in Vegas to watch his band play.
- 17:34best thing on at 02: And we had a really fun time, but it was very out of our. Well, out of their normal zones. I'm used to it because I played music for a long time.
- 17:43best thing on at 02: I don't know.
- 17:43best thing on at 02: There's been to plenty of dive bars.
- 17:45best thing on at 02: There's a little, uh, music venue here in Nashville called the End.
- 17:48best thing on at 02: Yeah, that's gone.
- 17:49best thing on at 02: I mean, R-I-P to all dope music venues for the most part.
- 17:53best thing on at 02: Right. It's a lot of capitalism.
- 17:54best thing on at 02: Right. Uh, but it reminded me of, or maybe like the Springwater Supper Club.
- 18:00best thing on at 02: Okay.
- 18:01best thing on at 02: Right?
- 18:01best thing on at 02: That's a throwback. Yeah. Dude, bro.
- 18:03best thing on at 02: Hey.
- 18:03best thing on at 02: Oof.
- 18:04best thing on at 02: Six one five OG.
- 18:05best thing on at 02: Right? Hey, girl, what's up? Yeah.
- 18:07best thing on at 02: Knee high since the tree High.
- 18:08best thing on at 02: As much as I liked Starwood, it sucked though, let's be honest.
- 18:12best thing on at 02: Yeah. One way in, one way out.
- 18:14best thing on at 02: Right? For sure.
- 18:16best thing on at 02: But no, definitely, uh, I think super cool for someone. Jeremy's, uh, band is pretty solid.
- 18:21best thing on at 02: Yeah.
- 18:22best thing on at 02: Right? I think those dudes rock and he's.
- 18:24best thing on at 02: A lefty playing guitar. Not very often you see that switch.
- 18:27best thing on at 02: Foot on the guitar.
- 18:28best thing on at 02: That's right. Um, and it was a good time. It really was a good time. Um, but what's interesting to me is that how he's woven his musical love and taste into his branding and his profile of his cigars. So I think coming out strong with the intro is just a solid thing to do.
- 18:49best thing on at 02: Brash.
- 18:50best thing on at 02: It's in your very, very much punk rock rock and roll.
- 18:54best thing on at 02: Yes.
- 18:55best thing on at 02: This is what you, uh.
- 18:57best thing on at 02: Right. That's right. I'm a California guy.
- 18:59best thing on at 02: I'm going to put it in your face and take it or leave it.
- 19:01best thing on at 02: Knock on the door and then kick it, right?
- 19:03best thing on at 02: That's right.
- 19:04best thing on at 02: So next up, we've got the revivalist and good old boy Mike. Take it away.
- 19:10best thing on at 02: Yes. Uh, so the next cigar we have is, uh, the revivalist tells the story of a man who is out on the road sharing a story to all who will have ears to hear. Step right up. Just approach the radio just like I've told you. Your mama's told you. You're going to hear about this cigar. Can you feel the power? I feel the faith coming through this cigar. The story is the experiences we share and the memories we make.
- 19:36best thing on at 02: Everyone has a story to be told. This is something we can all get behind.
- 19:40best thing on at 02: That's 100%.
- 19:41best thing on at 02: All we have to do is listen. And those stories are what make history. Our history.
- 19:47best thing on at 02: That's right.
- 19:48best thing on at 02: So the revivalist, the rapper is Mexican. Um, Claro. The binder is Indonesian. The filler is Estelli and Halapa.
- 19:58best thing on at 02: And what are your thoughts?
- 20:01best thing on at 02: Um.
- 20:02best thing on at 02: Uh, my first impression when this was lit was, um, there was a little bit of spice up front, but it was incredibly tame, um, for the first third. The middle, uh, was incredibly Woody.
- 20:16best thing on at 02: Um.
- 20:19best thing on at 02: I was like, wow, this is like elements of oak and elm and some birch. And it had that I'm sitting around a campfire kind of aspect to it because it didn't smell or taste like freshwood. It tasted like something had been well seasoned. And you were just kind of downwind campfire.
- 20:43best thing on at 02: No, it wasn't. Well, some good Applewood.
- 20:46best thing on at 02: Yeah. I, uh, didn't choose any real spicy woods like cedar or something like that.
- 20:52best thing on at 02: It had a very woody characteristic in the middle of it. Great. Um, I thought it had a good draw. Uh, the construction off the one I had was okay ish. Uh, actually, um, the, uh, wrapper was kind of peeling off a bit for me.
- 21:08best thing on at 02: It's been banging around my humidor for a while.
- 21:10best thing on at 02: My travel humidor, this is the point that was, uh, really influenced a lot of, uh, the experience itself. But I like the size. I love the draw. Um, I thought it was just a good, solid.
- 21:26best thing on at 02: I'm out in the middle of, uh, standing in a creek with a fly rod in my hand. Yeah, I could have this.
- 21:32best thing on at 02: Yeah.
- 21:32best thing on at 02: I actually was, uh, standing in a creek when I lit this cigar.
- 21:37best thing on at 02: Shut up.
- 21:38best thing on at 02: I was not fly fishing. Um, I was working to get the well pump back into the deep hole so we could pull the water up to the cabin. But, uh, I've been there. Yeah. Uh, it was enjoyable.
- 21:51best thing on at 02: Um.
- 21:51best thing on at 02: Go a bit further, Mike. Go a bit further.
- 21:54best thing on at 02: Yeah. I also noticed construction issues.
- 21:59best thing on at 02: Yeah, there you go.
- 22:00best thing on at 02: I unfortunately, also noticed construction issues on this. Uh, know, it was difficult to describe what it was, but I laughed a little bit when I heard Mike describe it as woody, because as I was telling the crew that there was one cigar from this line that I could only really describe as, like, a stem, but it literally looked like a stick running through the cigar as it was burning, and it was this one.
- 22:23best thing on at 02: And it made me sad because I actually really enjoyed the cigar up until about the halfway point where I got to where this stick was, and the draw got very funky and obviously, and it just changed, and I ended up having to put it out. Um, but I will say that what I had of it, I will go get another one and try again. It was enjoyable.
- 22:42best thing on at 02: Well, one thing I would like to tell our listeners and people that are out there is these are all handmade cigars, and that's with 80% of cigars that are on. Um, they're machine made. Some of them are, and some of them aren't. Uh, but the real hand rolled good cigars, occasionally you're going to get a stem.
- 23:04best thing on at 02: Absolutely.
- 23:05best thing on at 02: And occasionally you're going to have construction problems.
- 23:07best thing on at 02: So I encourage people that encounter issues to try it again. I always say try everything twice because you might not like it the first time. That's just a motto that I live my life by. And, uh, I'm looking through my humidor now because I think I have another one here that I can give you to take home.
- 23:28best thing on at 02: Well, I appreciate the offer.
- 23:31best thing on at 02: It's not an offer. You're taking it home. Yeah.
- 23:33best thing on at 02: And you're going to anybody that's ever bought a box of cigars, whether it be 1015 20.
- 23:39best thing on at 02: Right.
- 23:40best thing on at 02: You run into a couple that are going to have some construction issues, they're going to have some burn issues.
- 23:45best thing on at 02: Uh.
- 23:46best thing on at 02: Um. My old man actually has A ritual to this. And anything that comes in, like a bundle or a box, he'll try to dig down into the middle and just kind of grab something out of the middle. Um, because, um, it's that production mindset, right? Like, you don't want a car built on a Monday or a Friday. You want a car built on a Wednesday.
- 24:07best thing on at 02: That's right.
- 24:08best thing on at 02: The Wednesday, Thursday, Monday, they're still shaking off the weekend a little bit. Friday, they can't wait to get up out of there.
- 24:13best thing on at 02: But a Wednesday car, right. And that's exactly what you're looking for. Um, and 90% of these cigars, uh, closer probably to 95% of the cigars, if you're buying in a box, are going to be exactly what you're looking for.
- 24:31best thing on at 02: So.
- 24:31best thing on at 02: Yeah, I couldn't echo that more. Anytime you have any type of construction issues, go back, pick up another one. Um, and just try to have that experience again. And those flavor profiles, too, are going to be subjective. Right? What'd you eat that day? What are you drinking with it?
- 24:46best thing on at 02: What mood are you in? Right.
- 24:48best thing on at 02: Uh, that's definitely something as ritualistic as smoking a cigar.
- 24:53best thing on at 02: My house, when I smoked, the revivalist and I had some just rock and roll, like some red fang and the sword and torch, and was just listening to some rock and roll, I saw.
- 25:03best thing on at 02: You nodding your head when I was talking about Wood.
- 25:07best thing on at 02: This one was a big, Woody notes for me. Right.
- 25:10best thing on at 02: Um, and I think that you nailed it with, um, more of those kind of herbal, fragrant style of woods.
- 25:18best thing on at 02: The notes that I wrote down, uh, were sweet hay and leather kind of on the wrapper. But once you get this thing lit, white pepper Earl Grey tea, it's almost like an oversteeped tea as well.
- 25:30best thing on at 02: It's got some good, uh, uh, dark wood herbal notes to it.
- 25:35best thing on at 02: Amberana was what jumped out in my.
- 25:38best thing on at 02: Head, which was interesting choice.
- 25:40best thing on at 02: The heck is Amberana?
- 25:41best thing on at 02: It's a Brazilian hardwood.
- 25:43best thing on at 02: Yeah, that's kind of having a moment.
- 25:45best thing on at 02: Your fancy woods can just sit over there, Mr. Woods.
- 25:50best thing on at 02: But no, this definitely had, uh, some skin on walnuts for me. Uh, some real cool kind of fruity notes, but, yeah, couldn't say more about the Minty m kind of Herby, Woody tones.
- 26:04best thing on at 02: So we're going to give it a smokes rating of a three.
- 26:11best thing on at 02: It was split. There was two twos and two threes, just so we're all aware.
- 26:15best thing on at 02: So I didn't talk about what I paired, uh, the revivalist with. What did you pair it with? Ah, actually, I really enjoyed the pairing I had was with, um, Luxro. Uh, it is twelve year. Yeah, it's a twelve year double barrel.
- 26:29best thing on at 02: Drinking. It.
- 26:30best thing on at 02: It's, uh, only available in the gift shop. And, um, it's picked a product that the taste profile tends to change because they're working off, uh, different batches from that time to time.
- 26:44best thing on at 02: But what a super solid choice.
- 26:49best thing on at 02: Um, the thing that I liked about it is that, um, I wasn't looking for something to completely balance out the cigar. And I was really afraid, because that's a very big whiskey, that Luxro double barrel. It's like, oh, man, I'm here.
- 27:09best thing on at 02: That's right.
- 27:09best thing on at 02: I'm going to command your palate. And I was really afraid it was actually going to influence the experience, but it really was a pretty good companion choice, and I actually liked that pairing. I was a little surprised. Like I said, I really, um, thought it might blow out the cigar.
- 27:24best thing on at 02: But I thought it worked.
- 27:25best thing on at 02: Yeah, well, man, what you're saying really makes my mind wander.
- 27:30best thing on at 02: And now we're going to talk about the wanderer. Drew, take it away, baby.
- 27:35best thing on at 02: Come through here, my friends. We're going to wander through the wilderness.
- 27:40best thing on at 02: I wander as I wander.
- 27:42best thing on at 02: Some say you must first get lost before you can truly find yourself. Often we miss out on what is truly important in life because we focus on the destination rather than the journey.
- 27:55best thing on at 02: Wandering is not a goal, barger. Okay?
- 27:57best thing on at 02: It's a lifestyle choice, and I choose to live it.
- 28:00best thing on at 02: Is it a lifestyle choice?
- 28:04best thing on at 02: All I know is that the wanderer came out of being at a loss. Kind of like Barger was for words.
- 28:10best thing on at 02: Just right.
- 28:11best thing on at 02: And finding that in the journey, we had already found what we were looking for.
- 28:19best thing on at 02: Sage. Not a flavor that I got from the cigar, just the wisdom.
- 28:25best thing on at 02: Oh, uh, yeah. Like old sadducees telling us. What's that?
- 28:30best thing on at 02: Who? What?
- 28:33best thing on at 02: We're going biblical. Let's do this.
- 28:35best thing on at 02: I thought you said Sagittarius for a second.
- 28:37best thing on at 02: No, never mind. It went over your head. It's fine.
- 28:39best thing on at 02: Obviously.
- 28:40best thing on at 02: Tell everybody what the wanderer is made up.
- 28:42best thing on at 02: Yeah, let's get.
- 28:43best thing on at 02: The wanderer is wrapped with Ecuadorian Sumatra.
- 28:46best thing on at 02: The binder is Nicaraguan habano, and the filler is jalapa. Jalapa, Dominican piloto, Paraguay, and broadleaf.
- 28:58best thing on at 02: Yeah, see, I didn't smoke this one as well.
- 29:01best thing on at 02: And I would look at those choices and go, super spice bomb.
- 29:07best thing on at 02: Um, I mean, through and through.
- 29:09best thing on at 02: Incorrect.
- 29:09best thing on at 02: Huh.
- 29:10best thing on at 02: Interesting.
- 29:11best thing on at 02: This one wasn't super. I mean, it has a great pepper spice to it, but this is, like, big espresso, chocolatey, rich body notes for me. The, uh, Spice, I definitely got more on the retrohale than I did on the palate, necessarily. Um, but this was a really earthy and kind of rustic cigar when, uh, we've talked about in the past about Nicaraguan cigars having this kind of minerality. Right. And this terroir driven rusticity, this is that kind of flavor profile, but in a very decadent approach for me.
- 29:46best thing on at 02: See, chocolate covered red hots.
- 29:49best thing on at 02: Uh, that's what I wrote down.
- 29:50best thing on at 02: Yeah, I like chocolate covered cinnamon in there, for sure.
- 29:54best thing on at 02: Yeah.
- 29:55best thing on at 02: Um, see, I didn't get much of the sugar, the sweetness. I got all the spice.
- 29:59best thing on at 02: Oh, see, I don't get sugar from red hots. I just.
- 30:02best thing on at 02: Dude, when I eat red hots, man, I get that, like, sugary kind of.
- 30:07best thing on at 02: It's just straight cinnamon burn to me. And that's what this reminded me of. It was just cinnamon burn.
- 30:12best thing on at 02: I get, I get that.
- 30:12best thing on at 02: That and a little sweetness from, but a chocolate, earthy sweetness.
- 30:17best thing on at 02: So this is actually one of my favorites of the line.
- 30:21best thing on at 02: Same, uh.
- 30:25best thing on at 02: We touched early on his branding and everything about that and the colors that he chose to go with the bands with each cigar. Uh, everything is meticulous and it really shines. I really think that what he blended with the wanderer is spot on point with what I like about cigars.
- 30:51best thing on at 02: Like, it is a spice bomb, that you would not look at it and say, that's a spice bomb. You would think that's, uh, going to be a mild smoke. But no, that thing slaps you in the face like Your mother with her sandal.
- 31:04best thing on at 02: The chunkla.
- 31:06best thing on at 02: That's right.
- 31:08best thing on at 02: Yeah. And dude, it was awesome. I love Sumatra. I can't get enough Sumatra in my life.
- 31:15best thing on at 02: But I think it's also worth mentioning that spice is balanced. Sure. It may be prominent, no?
- 31:21best thing on at 02: Yeah, absolutely.
- 31:23best thing on at 02: I think that one of the things that I would really want to, uh, portray to our wonderful, wonderful listeners out there is that as spicy as this cigar may be, uh, it's got enough depth to really make that spice complex as, ah, opposed to overpowering.
- 31:43best thing on at 02: Yeah, it's definitely not a one trick pony. I don't think that it's a, um, one trick pony in the spice world. Uh, I think that it's very complex and it's definitely worth grabbing a one or two if you've got a chance.
- 31:58best thing on at 02: I feel like you think I didn't like it.
- 32:00best thing on at 02: No, I think you liked it.
- 32:01best thing on at 02: Let's hear the rating.
- 32:03best thing on at 02: Uh, so we're going to go with.
- 32:06best thing on at 02: A three on that.
- 32:09best thing on at 02: Box worthy.
- 32:10best thing on at 02: I would definitely buy a box. Yeah, I got a box. It's fine. We're good. I love it. So after this break, we're going to come back with the last cigar and have a good time.
- 32:25best thing on at 02: And we're back. We just went over the wanderer from wildfire cigars, but now we're going to take it to the Artawas. Is I say that right?
- 32:34best thing on at 02: Um, probably not. Oh, I got it. I got it. Nailed it. I'm so bad with that word. It's like Kryptonite for me.
- 32:42best thing on at 02: Tricky.
- 32:42best thing on at 02: It's a tricky one. I know it.
- 32:45best thing on at 02: I got it.
- 32:46best thing on at 02: I nailed it. Okay, so the Artawas is a very special bear. God of a, right? That's right. It is a great cigar. Now, I don't have my notes up on his, uh, tasting.
- 33:00best thing on at 02: What is he saying? His website about it. You got that pulled up there? No.
- 33:03best thing on at 02: So the information on the website is still TBD.
- 33:06best thing on at 02: This is a PCA release.
- 33:07best thing on at 02: Okay. That's right.
- 33:08best thing on at 02: That's why I don't have, um.
- 33:11best thing on at 02: But we do have, uh, the product description. So the build out, it's, uh, going to be a Nicaraguan habano escuro wrapper over an Indonesian binder, um, and Nicaraguan filler, specifically from Condega, halapa, and Esteli. This, uh, one is described as being medium plus.
- 33:31best thing on at 02: Um, but I'd agree with that. What a treat. This is my favorite hands down wildfire pRoduction.
- 33:40best thing on at 02: I loved it.
- 33:40best thing on at 02: Uh, I could smoke every day, one after another every day. If you could light cigars off the butt end of each other like you do cigarettes back in the day.
- 33:51best thing on at 02: So can I stick with my theme? I did not have this cigar. Sorry, everyone.
- 33:55best thing on at 02: He's got it. He's going to smoke it.
- 33:57best thing on at 02: Really interesting getting your take on what you would expect it to be like.
- 34:00best thing on at 02: Well, that's what I'm enjoying. Uh, this is kind of a very unplanned moment that we were doing it this way. And again, I'm just looking at the wrapper, the binder, and the filler, and I'm going, well, first off, you had me at a scura. Um, I mean, I am just a sucker for that wrapper. It is so complex and complex and complex. And it's very rare for me to run across, uh, that particular wrapper and go, uh, it's just not going to.
- 34:27best thing on at 02: Work for me, I'll tell you.
- 34:29best thing on at 02: And the Indonesian binder choice here, usually it's a very floral, uh, forward binder for me.
- 34:40best thing on at 02: It makes me do this all the time.
- 34:42best thing on at 02: And it, um, is absolutely, hands down, probably one of my favorite cigars in his line.
- 34:49best thing on at 02: Jeremy, thank you for making this cigar.
- 34:51best thing on at 02: Yes, thank you for providing us with these cigars. Uh, and making these cigars.
- 34:55best thing on at 02: You made this Maduro hater actually enjoy this.
- 34:58best thing on at 02: Oh, snap. We're going to get to that in just a second. But his tasting notes are rich. Cinnamon spice, pepper leather, and a hint of sweetness. I would like to add on that because, man, it is so peppery.
- 35:16best thing on at 02: So peppery and good. But that cinnamon that he talks about in his tasting notes really just slaps you in the face and calms down that spiciness.
- 35:28best thing on at 02: And it is fantastic how they blend together.
- 35:31best thing on at 02: I absolutely cannot get enough of this cigar.
- 35:34best thing on at 02: This thing is like Mexican chocolate for me. Right? If you like any of those dark chocolate squares that have a little bit of cayenne pepper in them. Uh, something along that kind of deep, savory note you almost get from heavy percentage cacao, dark chocolate, and a little bit of cayenne.
- 35:55best thing on at 02: That pepper spiciness. This thing is a home run.
- 36:00best thing on at 02: That's right. I absolutely love this cigar.
- 36:03best thing on at 02: Uh, we're going to just go ahead and jump right into the rating of this cigar. What do we got? That's threes across the board, man. There wasn't a two in the room. It's because Mike hasn't smoked it yet.
- 36:16best thing on at 02: And by unanimous decision.
- 36:18best thing on at 02: That's right. Mike's opinion doesn't matter.
- 36:21best thing on at 02: I look forward to enjoying that.
- 36:23best thing on at 02: And again, that recipe looks really inviting for me. Um, probably if I just looked at the entire lineup, that would have been my first choice. I would have gone, I want to smoke that one first.
- 36:39best thing on at 02: I didn't find it to be overpowering with the cinnamon. I stopped to note because you described it. I say, I am very sensitive to cinnamon generally. So if you are someone like me that's listening and you don't generally enjoy cinnamon, and you feel like maybe you shouldn't know, give it a shot.
- 36:58best thing on at 02: I enjoyed it. I felt it was very balanced.
- 37:00best thing on at 02: And that's coming from a Maduro hater. Let's just talk about that.
- 37:04best thing on at 02: Hate is such a strong word.
- 37:05best thing on at 02: Barker told me every time. I hate Maduros like Mike and Habanos.
- 37:12best thing on at 02: Yeah, but I don't think, uh, you can't throw Escura in the same. I think in the same.
- 37:17best thing on at 02: You can't.
- 37:18best thing on at 02: I think you're doing a disservice to both rappers.
- 37:21best thing on at 02: I agree. I agree. Ask hero is in its very own. Yes, but, uh, I think that's good to remember. But a lot of people that don't typically smoke Maduros will shy away from the color Laharo and the Escaro, the darker rappers, because they're afraid of it.
- 37:39best thing on at 02: Don't be afraid of the dark.
- 37:40best thing on at 02: Do not be afraid of the dark wrappers, because they are deceiving. But they are deliciously deceiving.
- 37:47best thing on at 02: Let the glow of the campfire lure you in.
- 37:49best thing on at 02: Uh, that's too close. The smoke's in your eyes.
- 37:53best thing on at 02: Now you're buying the marshmallows, Firebird.
- 37:56best thing on at 02: Damn it, Firebad.
- 37:58best thing on at 02: All right, so the last cigar in the lineup was his special cigar that he just created in Kohoots collaboration with ammunition whiskey. Now, the notes that I have from this cigar is what he sent me. It said, ammunition earns 90 plus point score from the industry's most trusted sources. Don't know who these sources are, but.
- 38:20best thing on at 02: Trust the ratings, not, uh, us.
- 38:21best thing on at 02: Its secret sauce Is finishing their unique blends of whiskey in barrels that once housed their ammunition. Wines. So this is a wine barrel finished cigar. Its French oak cask offers depths of flavors and nuances that is complementary to wildfire's spice rich and sweet profiles.
- 38:43best thing on at 02: I think that that was an accurate statement.
- 38:50best thing on at 02: I, uh, um, didn't hate this cigar. I actually first tried this cigar when we were at PCA. He was handing these out at his band's, um, performance.
- 39:01best thing on at 02: And that was his introduction. That was his. Hey, you guys are the first to try these. And I liked it. And I liked it so much, I got a second one to take home. And then, uh, he sent us some more of them. But now I get that the wine barrel aging and all this other stuff is kind of gimmick.
- 39:21best thing on at 02: A bad idea.
- 39:22best thing on at 02: Yeah, well, it could be.
- 39:25best thing on at 02: Maybe they can put it in a barrel and put it on the bottom of the ocean. Next.
- 39:28best thing on at 02: Just check with the state of California first.
- 39:30best thing on at 02: Let's just make sure Jefferson's hasn't done it yet. So the ammunition cigar is a Dominican corojo wrapper, a Nicaraguan habano binder, and its filler is Dominican and Nicaraguan.
- 39:42best thing on at 02: And so there's no press release on this cigar yet, because, like I said, it's one of the newer ones that he hasn't even put out yet. Um, it's an exclusive. And these are another thing that he gives out.
- 39:57best thing on at 02: You can get at his events, and if you haven't been to any of his events, it's pretty funny. Like, funny in a great way. I love it.
- 40:06best thing on at 02: He's literally on the road right now, touring the country. Just him, his forerunner, and a pull behind camper in his camper. He's just crashing in.
- 40:15best thing on at 02: Is there Camo involved?
- 40:16best thing on at 02: No.
- 40:19best thing on at 02: I wish there was, like, a crossbow hanging up inside of it.
- 40:21best thing on at 02: Straw hat, maybe?
- 40:22best thing on at 02: Yeah. But no. He sets up a solo stove and makes s'mores in the parking lots of all these cigar shops. And it's just a fun time. If you've got a wildfire event coming to any of your towns near you, go to it.
- 40:39best thing on at 02: I think he even brings his own firewood.
- 40:40best thing on at 02: He does.
- 40:41best thing on at 02: And you want to talk about the.
- 40:42best thing on at 02: Definition of hospitality, man, he brings his firewood.
- 40:45best thing on at 02: I hope he buys it when he's close by, because you can't transport firewood across state lines. Children bootlegging.
- 40:50best thing on at 02: I don't know about that.
- 40:51best thing on at 02: No, there's, uh, the emerald boar beetle, let's say. They say that's bad emerald ash boar.
- 40:57best thing on at 02: Well, I'm sure he buys it locally, wherever he's going, because above reproach, we're all going to be.
- 41:02best thing on at 02: So let's just. I like this cigar, and I would like to hear your guys thoughts on it.
- 41:10best thing on at 02: We'll start with Mike.
- 41:12best thing on at 02: I wish to register a complete yes.
- 41:16best thing on at 02: Wow. Yeah.
- 41:18best thing on at 02: There is nothing even remotely close to that description and the experience of this cigar.
- 41:26best thing on at 02: Um, I guess the first thing that struck me was, um, this was a fairly crispy, um, cigar that I was holding. It was like, wow, okay, is this thing going to break in half? Um.
- 41:41best thing on at 02: Um, not, uh, the manufacturer's fault. No, not necessarily, but it's been in.
- 41:47best thing on at 02: My truck alongside of the.
- 41:49best thing on at 02: So I completely smoked this blind. I had no idea what it was. Man, if you told me this had been aged in a wine barrel, there is no way you would have convinced me of any value add that brought to the table. Um, in fact, probably if you had asked me what cigar that was, I would have pulled it as a dead wringer for a curly head. Um, really? Yeah, really. Um, it reminded me definitely of having a curly head, for sure. Um, not a lot of flavor. I really thought around the whole thing. It had kind of a bit of a thin draw. Um, I thought overall, um, the wrapper was very veiny.
- 42:32best thing on at 02: And after, uh, Drew's comment about a stick really coming around, I was like, wow, I hope I don't have that. And I did not have that experience at all, but it really had, uh, I don't know, just holding it and that very thin draw about it. It was like, you know what? This needs a little bit of flavor. And so I found myself, actually, uh, going through. We've been, uh, enjoying several things out of a bag that I brought of a wide range of things. The first choice that I had was actually a rum from privateer with, uh, our good friend, the rum Sherpa.
- 43:08best thing on at 02: Hi, Andrew.
- 43:10best thing on at 02: Thank you, Andrew, for, ah, making the triumphant, um, and, uh, this is a very special blend from privateer. It's a single barrel. It's not widely available.
- 43:20best thing on at 02: Um, just Tennessee, I believe, for this particular.
- 43:23best thing on at 02: I think this particular Tennessee release. Um, so I really love this rum a lot. And I thought, wow, I thought that might be a really good choice.
- 43:35best thing on at 02: It just, uh, I love the rum, but it was not working well, I thought, together. So, um, I kind of shifted gears, and I'm like, you know what?
- 43:44best thing on at 02: I think this really needs a bit of some barley around it.
- 43:47best thing on at 02: And I grabbed a lakh. Leah, um, to, uh, pair this with this was amazing.
- 43:55best thing on at 02: So, uh, Lakhlia, uh, this is, uh, single malt scotch. Uh, that is combination of bourbon, sherry and straight, uh, cask.
- 44:03best thing on at 02: It's non chill filtered, um, as well.
- 44:06best thing on at 02: Uh, yeah, this did the trick.
- 44:08best thing on at 02: Uh, I didn't have the cigar with that, but that would do the trick with just about anything.
- 44:13best thing on at 02: I think it really elevated the cigar itself and really, I thought, kind of brought things around in terms of one two combo for me.
- 44:21best thing on at 02: Yeah, I wouldn't go back to the stick.
- 44:24best thing on at 02: I'm glad I didn't know the wine barrel aging thing when I had it.
- 44:29best thing on at 02: So I think just to throw a wrench in all this, I, uh, don't think the cigars actually aged in a wine barrel. It's the whiskey that's finished in a wine barrel. Right.
- 44:40best thing on at 02: Um, it is possible that I misspoke, because we all know that my reading skills are fourth grade.
- 44:46best thing on at 02: Yeah. So the ammunition whiskey is actually finished in collaboration then.
- 44:51best thing on at 02: Um, so the cigar is built to, um, mimic the flavor profile. That's exactly right. Yeah.
- 44:58best thing on at 02: So this cigar is supposed to work well with that red wine barrel finish whiskey.
- 45:05best thing on at 02: That would make sense to get out of the way and provide all the flavor.
- 45:09best thing on at 02: I stand corrected. And I apologize for botching that.
- 45:12best thing on at 02: All good. Well, I was just saying, if I had thought that it was wine barrel finished or something like that, I would have been looking for that flavor and been disappointed. So, because I didn't have that predisposition, I actually enjoyed the cigar.
- 45:29best thing on at 02: It was not my favorite of the bunch. It was not my least favorite of the bunch. Um, I agree with that.
- 45:35best thing on at 02: I would say it was approachable. Um, and knowing that it was made to pair with something else and let that thing be the star, that explains a lot.
- 45:43best thing on at 02: Yeah, I agree with that statement. I agree with that.
- 45:45best thing on at 02: I enjoyed the cigar, but it's not something that I would smoke every day. Um, I think that it would be a good campfire cigar sitting down with, like, uh, the campfire potatoes that you eat with the potatoes and onions and the tinfoil. Tinfoil, tinfoil, tinfoil.
- 46:03best thing on at 02: Aluminum fold.
- 46:04best thing on at 02: Aluminum foal. You do it big or you go home.
- 46:08best thing on at 02: Aluminium.
- 46:09best thing on at 02: Aluminium. There it is. There it is.
- 46:12best thing on at 02: All right, well, let's just go ahead and say our ratings on it. Uh. Uh. What we got, man? It's a two across the board.
- 46:21best thing on at 02: Definitely not holding up well.
- 46:22best thing on at 02: We don't count your fingers anymore.
- 46:24best thing on at 02: He smokes that way.
- 46:25best thing on at 02: We don't count Mike's fingers. It was a two. Mike gave it a one, but we.
- 46:28best thing on at 02: Give it a that. Does Mike get a handicap?
- 46:31best thing on at 02: Yeah.
- 46:31best thing on at 02: Is that what it is.
- 46:32best thing on at 02: It's like his golf game.
- 46:33best thing on at 02: Because he's wrong.
- 46:34best thing on at 02: We just don't talk about it.
- 46:36best thing on at 02: That's right. We don't talk about Mike's golf game.
- 46:38best thing on at 02: We interrupt this program to annoy you and make things generally irritating.
- 46:43best thing on at 02: That's right.
- 46:44best thing on at 02: But then again, I was talking. That's what I generally do, is annoy you and make things irritating.
- 46:48best thing on at 02: That's all. Right.
- 46:49best thing on at 02: Well, one thing I want to. Just for me personally, I think that getting to know the face behind the cigar helps make the experience different. So, like I said, I spent some time with him. We did a chats episode, and really, I got to see his heart behind what he does. And I think that speaks volumes to what he's trying to accomplish. And I think that what he's trying to accomplish, he's conveying extremely well, and to me, it's coming across well. What do you guys think?
- 47:28best thing on at 02: Well, so with Jeremy being in town and us being able to do that cigar event, the couple that he did with Smokers Abbey, and then, uh, he also hosted cigar, uh, night at the Whiskey house here. Uh, and getting to sit down face to face with the maker was absolutely incredible. I think my favorite thing about Jeremy is the transparency.
- 47:48best thing on at 02: Right. Any questions that you have, he's going to shoot you absolutely 100% straight. Um, and you don't necessarily get that out of a lot of manufacturers.
- 47:58best thing on at 02: And so it was cool, not just in cigars.
- 48:01best thing on at 02: Sit down and share a smoke with him and get to peek behind the curtain a little bit. Um, and he absolutely brings this brand to life. Absolutely. If there's a wildfire event close to you, man, go out, hang out with Jeremy, roast some s'mores on the solo stove.
- 48:16best thing on at 02: It's a really good.
- 48:17best thing on at 02: The brand is awesome. I really enjoy it, and I work in marketing and advertising.
- 48:22best thing on at 02: He's. They're doing a lot, right?
- 48:26best thing on at 02: That's right. Bring a crossbow, Jeremy.
- 48:28best thing on at 02: Maybe some axe throwing.
- 48:29best thing on at 02: Maybe some axe throwing. That's it. Yes.
- 48:32best thing on at 02: I would hate to write that.
- 48:38best thing on at 02: Plastic axes. Yeah.
