The Drew Estate Liga Privada #9 is an interesting cigar and by far my favorite. It comes dark in appearance with a white label. The interesting thing about the cigar is the scent. It smells like the perfect cigar, and it is. I would call it more of a boutique cigar. I use a standard double blade cutter that you can get at your average shop. Light it and it has this strong sensation spicy type of taste.

It burns very evenly and doesn’t get too smokey like the Undercrown. It’s a good tasting cigar, but when you get to the middle, you are completely shocked. You have never tasted such a cigar in your life. It’s like your taste buds go on a wild roller coaster specifically Nitro. You think it’s going to be a heavy cigar, but it’s the smoothest smoke I ever had. I usually have about 3-5 of these a day, so I enjoy it alot. The ash is very white and burns perfectly. It’s very hard to get this cigar to finally burn out because it burns so well.

At the end, you know right away that this is your cigar, and you need another one. This would be a perfect cigar on the beach on some paradise island. At the end, it has some what of a nutty taste, but it’s not as heavy and you believe it to me. I’m 21 years old, and my taste buds are constantly changing, but this is by far my favorite cigar. When properly humidified it’s not to hard and crunchy but it’s not too soft either. This is a great cigar to go with beer, liquor, a game of poker, a football game, or basically for an every day smoke. If you haven’t tried this cigar, pick it up it’s a gem!! You’ll impress a few of your buddies also because it’s not exactly easy to find!! Imagine your favorite beer.. but in cigar form.

Here we have the Undercrown also made by Drew Estate. You’re a little curious because you may be wondering if it’s anything like the Liga Privada’s. It’s more of a cousin if anything. You have a lighter appearance than the Liga. It’s an easy cut. As you get ready to light it, you’re thinking how interesting this cigar is. Well, here you go, you’ve finally cut it. It sounds like a perfect cut that you have accomplished which you have.

You start smoking it at first with that heavy tobacco taste. You’re thinking hmm this is a little interesting it’s not like the Liga at all. Because it’s not. It doesn’t have the taste or the spice of the Liga, but it is VERY smokey. If you’re against the smokey part of a cigar, then you shouldn’t smoke this. By smoking this, it’s like you’re in a Godfather scene with the Godfather speaking to his soldiers with the smoke in the background. It doesn’t have the power of the Liga, but it is one heck of a smoke. It’s not as smooth as a T-52 but if you smoke Liga’s you’ll enjoy this cigar.

After a Tatuaje Fausto, I usually smoke an Undercrown because they go well together one after the other. You get a little sweetness, coffee, and nut taste, but this goes away as soon as you get to the middle. The ash is white in appearance and once again it burns perfectly. It’s another cigar that I smoke every day.

What a busy 2012 this has been so far. A few interviews, a couple photo shoots & a very special guest spot invite to a respectable radio morning show. New Jersey’s WRCC 107.7 fm The Bronc aka Team iLLz Medical Militia invited me out to their show to discuss the Single Malt & Cigars Luxe lifestyle. Radio personality & fellow female cigar smoker ILLuZionz O’Grandeur, a.k.a iLLz & her team cover topics from entertainment, sports, current events, film & very importantly health issues.

ILLz, Major Hickz & I (Serious Bok) covered the segment of “Single Malt & Cigars”. We discussed the lifestyle, how we began cigar smoking & choosing personal preferences. Even had cigars in the studio so this was official. This Broad&Luxe and SingleMalt&Cigars lifestyle is to much to cover in one session. So I was invited back! And I’m going back! LUXE in the building and on the radio. Tune in to the Medical Militia radio show Sundays 9:30am- 10:30am on 107.7fm or stream online here >>> 1077thebronc.com

Leaving the pawn shop and entering Beauty & Essex is part of what makes it cool & NY. Inside is swanky and laid out very nicely. Long hanging chandeliers, winding staircases, fur walls,2 bars & seating for dining. There is a bar in the ladies room & complimentary champagne. I did not use the men’s room, but it trust it was up to standards. Drink menu include creative cocktails like the Emerald Gimlet, Beauty Elixir,the O.D.B. or the Woodford Wilson. Women have a nice selection of trendy drinks to sample. I am not into fruity drinks, but the Woodford Wilson which is, Woodford Reserve bourbon, pineapple, lime, ginger beer, brandied vanilla cherry, is more masculine than it sounds. A small selection of impressive beers like Stella, New Castle, Negra Modelo & yeah even Hieneken Light. Red & white wine by glass or bottle.

I did not eat, but I will return to have dinner. A woman seated next to us at the bar had a pizza appetizer thing called a, “Sweet Roasted Tomato Pizzeta”. It smelled delicious. The menu includes gourmet versions of burgers,onion rings, ribs , steak & seafood. Also known as the Beauty & Essex burger, Vidalia Onion Ring Tempura,Heritage Baby Back Ribs, Bone in Rib-eye & Pearls of the Sea. Remember, a Bentley isn’t white,it’s moonbeam!

Beauty & Essex is a cool place to take a young lady(or two)hang out have some drinks, appetizers & a meal. This is where you go when Fridays wont do. When she deserves more and you need a different element. Good place for date,groups, a sexy night out for the ladies, celebrations & good times. For a guys night out on the town not so much.

This what I’m talking about. This is Luxe. Adults having a good time. The evening is so much more enjoyable when everyone in the room can pull their own weight. Enjoy 2012 people & your Ciroc.

Bond #9 High Line is described as ,”The scent of wildflowers, green grasses & urban renewal.” Listen it smells fresh and no one will smell like her. She may be a Beyonce fan and I know its easy to go to CVS and get that Beyonce Heat… but don’t. Available at Saks Fifth Avenue stores. 100ml $220

Alexander McQueen Skull Scarf. Why because it’s tough and the skulls are mean, but she will smell all feminine and intimidate. Also at Saks or online $295

Balenciaga Shades. I like shades so if I’m fly she fly. These are popular not not common. Very fly. Find these at Solstice Sunglasses. $375

A camera upgrade is always nice. I know most phones especially iphones have great cameras. Nothing better than an official camera during vacation time or especially at concerts. Disposable cameras are useless at concerts.

Neiman Marcus Jewelry Box. Her jewelry box should be just as Luxe as your humidor. If your cigars are in imported Spanish cedar with golden handles her diamonds and baubles should be just as comfortable. $285

Speaking of cigars get her some. If your lucky and she smokes cigars hit up your local Cigar Shop like Barrister Cigars for some Drew Estate Acid Blondies or whatever she likes.

The only thing better than happy hour prices is a free happy hour. Throw some gift cards to her & her girls friends favorite watering hole in a stocking. Fridays, Cheesecake Factory, Legal Seafood , Nobu..etc,.The place she likes not you! Remember it’s the thought not how much the gift cost..usually. Merry Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa all that from Serious Bok!
