I'm a cigar fan. I enjoy getting lost in a cloud of smoke. I find it relaxing and a chance to engage the mind. I particularly enjoy Smokes from the Ashton line, but let's face it, they are EXPENSIVE. At 8.30 a stick the Maduro #20 can eat up the weekly paycheck.
For the past two months I've been smoking all kinds of 5.00 sticks with hopes that I could find something to satisfy my palate. Well the search is over. The Arturo Fuente Curly head is a $3.25 stick full of flavor and I just love it. The taste is great and you'd never think it was under 5.00. The value exists because the stick is rolled from the Hemingway 2nds, so if you've tasted the Hemingway this will give you an idea. It's spongy and flakey, hence the name, but the flavor is good. I enjoy the Maduro and it reminds me a lot if the Ashton Maduro #20. It's sweet on the tongue and follows the flavor profile of the traditional Fuente line. Don't cut it too aggressively as the tobacco is loose. I welcome your thoughts.
Stay classy Gentlemen

A gentlemen cares
There are a ton of hair products out there to choose from. Advertisements would lead us to believe that everything is the best. Let me assure you, not all of them deliver. I'm willing to bet you're not going to meet a guy pickier than me when it comes to his hair. The right product is a must. Shine, sheen, wash out, these are all things one must consider. DO NOT BUY YOUR STUFF FROM WALMART BOYS, the old adage is true, you get what you pay for. There are however exceptions to the rule. My recommendation - the classic brylcreem. It adds shine and makes your hair very soft and manageable. This is very light so it's going to wash out well however the hold isn't as strong as say a high life. I was attracted to it due to its classic popularity and longevity. 7.00 a tube, Because its hard to locate i hit amazon, however i hear Walgreens has it.Give it a try,
Your grandpa will be proud!
Brylcreem - "a little dab will do ya"
