Hi and welcome to another episode of Monday's with Mardo I'm Gerard this week I'm going to
talk about something that i have recently tried and I was really impressed by it
this is our work area right here
as you can tell we work very hard
all right there's a couple of cigars
here we're going to talk about
and I'm going to bring this with me so basically
the topic of this video is the cigar that really
surprised me yes it did and that is the Stillwell
star cigar by the man himself Steve Saka
um I'm not sure if you guys ever met Steve Saka he used to work for drew state he was a blender there
he had a lot to do with the uh creation of
the Liga Privada cigars that we all love
since then he went on his own he started
a company called Dunbarton cigars
excuse me Dunbarton tobacco and trust and
he has a lot of cigars that he makes but one
of the ones that he just recently added to his
portfolio is still well star now what's so big
about Stillwell star as four different blends
two of them are gonna be more of a cavendish
and two of them are going to be more of a
latakia you'll be wondering what the heck
I'm talking about these are terms used in pipe
tobacco world that's right pipe tobacco what does
pipe tobacco have anything to do with cigars
well in this blend it has a lot to do with it
the one that i really liked is the bayou number
32 and the bayou number 32 had that cavendish very
sweet smell to it I'm right here smelling it right
now and this cigar when I first lit it I was very
skeptical i thought it was a joke i thought it was
some kind of gimmick but once I smoked it by god
let me tell you it was delicious very smooth very
well balanced the pipe tobacco blended with the
tobaccos from the cigar mesh very very well
now I've heard he only uses two grams of pipe
tobacco and these blends so I'm very surprised
at how much of an influence it has on the flavor
but very well done my hat goes off to you Steve
and everything you do always comes out very well
so if you're interested there's the aromatic
number one the bio number 32 which are gonna
be more on the sweeter side and he's got
the navy blue number 20 no navy number 1056
and then the other one is called i think i
have it right here English number 27. the
English number 27 and the navy 1056 are more of
that latakia it's going to have that more of the
kind of like pungent tobacco flavor when it
comes to pipes I'm not a big very big fan of
it but when it comes to the navy 1056 the second
third of the cigar really opens up and changes
completely different profile and I really really
liked it so anyways I'm rambling on and I want to
cut out and I want to say try the Stillwell star
we do have at modocigars.com other than that let
me hear in the comments what you think of this
cigar if you've tried if you haven't go smoke
