Cigar Advisor, the nation’s premiere online cigar magazine, proudly serves cigar enthusiasts with a uniquely down-to-earth perspective on the enjoyment of premium cigars. The magazine has just published a review of the newly-deemed FDA rule that extends the agency’s intent to regulate more tobacco products — including premium cigars — under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (FSPTCA). Titled “FDA Cigar Regulation: Effects of the 2016 Deeming Rule,” Managing Editor John Pullo addresses the impact this new authority granted to the FDA will have on the premium cigar market, and the market uncertainties it has created.
“There are a number of ‘untolds’ in the document. These are the numbers, processes, costs and more that the Agency hasn’t defined yet… perhaps, because it can’t. That’s why we wanted to address these regulations — they’re important for cigar enthusiasts to understand,” says Cigar Advisor Managing Editor John Pullo. “They have the very real potential to negatively impact the consumer — and in more ways than just the choice of premium cigars available for sale.” He’s compiled an analysis of the stricter FDA regulations that affect the production, marketing and sales of tobacco products that were announced this month, titledFDA Cigar Regulation: Effects of the 2016 Deeming Rule. Released as a 499-page document on May 5, John examines four of the most prominent issues created by the FDA decision for stronger regulation.
John notes one particular concern immediately: “The damage that is likely to be done to the manufacture and marketing of premium cigars by this decision is sweepingly broad, but done in a way that’s extremely vague. That is worrisome.” He specifically points to the newly-ordered “substantial equivalence” verification process for premium cigars that entered the market after 2007, and how “there is a lot of gray area here.” Pullo argues that cigar manufactures are placed in an immediate disadvantage by the agency, as the inner workings of the tests that FDA plans to run on the products at hand are “unclear, have no benchmarks established, and the costs — and how they’re figured — are seemingly guesses, at best.” He also believes that this ruling places the legalization of Cuban cigars in America in limbo.
The Cigar Advisor analysis discusses the banning of cigar sampling, age verification for the purchase of cigars, and the steps that retailers have already taken to be in compliance with existing age restrictions for the purchase of tobacco products by those under the age of 18. “These laws already exist,” he says.
Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center for Tobacco Products released their 499 page final rule that would deem additional tobacco products subject to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (“Tobacco Control Act”). Under today’s release, premium cigars have been deemed and will be subjected to the “option 1” regulatory framework, which in some respects treats premium cigars in harsher terms than that of cigarettes and other tobacco products.

Thompson Cigar is now offering free shipping on orders over $99. Anyone have experience with Thompson? I have generally purchased my cigars locally and haven’t yet ordered any cigars online.
Yesterday, we took to pair the very rare and exquisite 12-year-old Syndicate 58/6 scotch whiskey with a cigar that would complement its rich and intense flavor. There were several cigars I could have chosen for this pairing and I settled on the Montecristo Platinum Series cigar. It is important when pairing a cigar and the drink of your choice that one does not overpower the other.
Although one of the photos shows the scotch in a glass without ice, I did add two cubes of ice after an initial tasting of the Syndicate 58/6. This is a scotch you will want to savor and enjoy unmolested by dissolving ice. Like most lovers of scotch, I like mine cold; and though I would not normally recommend this, it may be worth keeping this scotch chilled in your bar refrigerator or wine chiller so you can enjoy the cold temperature without the ice to affect the Syndicate’s taste as it is rich and smooth.
The Syndicate 58/6 is a premium blended scotch whiskey and is not your average premium scotch. It has a very long history being founded in 1966 by William Muir (Bond 9) Limited (Founded in Leith, Scotland in 1823) and the original blend was distilled in 1954 by Marshall Taplow for their most important customers. In the United Kingdom, Syndicate 58/6 is appreciated by Members of the House of Lords, High Court Judges and a wide range of leading professionals from throughout the United Kingdom. Syndicate 58/6 is blended using a ‘Solera’ system whereby additional whiskeys are blended with the older stock. They include 18 single malt whiskeys and four single grain whiskeys. Syndicate 58/6 still contains small quantities of the 1958 blend and is put in four year old Oloroso Sherry casks which give the whiskey an exceptionally smooth and distinctive taste.
Yesterday, we smoke and review the Davidoff Special R cigar. Davidoff is one of my favorite lines of cigars and next week I will review their Nicaragua cigar.
The Special R is a mild Robusto with an Ecuadorian wrapper and a 50 ring gauge and is about 5 inches in length. The Special R has been available since 1999 and though not the best Davidoff has to offer, it is still a smooth, affordable and enjoyable smoke. And when I say ‘affordable’, I mean affordable by Davidoff standards as they are a premium line of cigars. The cigar can be picked up as a single stick for around $12 to $13.
Coming out of the Dominican Republic, the Special R will last about 35 minutes or so. I did not find any problems with the draw as some have reported over the years, although it did burn slightly uneven. The uneven burn was not from user error or improper humidity, however, more likely a result of production.
Today, we will pair an excellent small batch bourbon with one of the finest cigars. Four Roses Small Batch Bourbon is one of the very best light-bodied bourbons available so it is important to pair it with a similar light-bodied cigar. There are several cigars to choose from such as the H. Upmann Monarcas Tubos or Montecristo Junior. For this review I chose the Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real which is a light to medium strength cigar and it turned out to be a terrific combination. Of course, everyone is different in their tastes, which is why it is important to trying things on your own and keep notes of your likes and dislikes. If you keep a journal, such as this, after a year, you will have a full and complete catalog of what suits you best.
So, what is bourbon? Bourbon is a whiskey; however, as they say, “All bourbon is whiskey, but not all whiskey is bourbon.” Bourbon is simply (and legally) American-made whiskey, starts off with at least 51 percent corn and must be aged (stored) in a new white oak barrel which can only be used once. Also, often people think bourbon must be made in Kentucky, but this is not the case – anywhere in America will do.
Four Roses Small Batch Bourbon is one of the best bourbons I have enjoyed. Today, I did so straight (without ice) in a regular glass tumbler so I could enjoy the aroma and taste without dilution from ice. Again, it comes down to how you enjoy your bourbon with or without ice. When ordering at your local bar, it is best to leave out fancy words like “neat” or “straight” if you prefer it without ice, because half the time, the bartender will serve it to you with ice anyway – even at high-end bars. I know some, that prefer their drink with only one ice cube; yet, if not specific when ordering, the glass will come back half full of chopped ice. It’s all in what you prefer, there is no right or wrong way to drink bourbon.

Since the U.S. enacted the trade embargo against Cuba in 1961, Cuban cigars, which have long been regarded as the best in the world, have been illegal in the United States. This restriction on access to Cubans has resulted in an increased desire for them, as the embargo has created a “forbidden fruit”-type appeal to the cigars. Many Americans are intrigued by the notion of Cuban cigars, but what they don’t realize is that one need not travel to Cuba to enjoy a fine cigar – the real essence of Cuban cigar tradition is already available here in the U.S.
After the Cuban Revolution in 1959, many Cubans emigrated to America seeking alternative political or economic conditions. Some of these were tobacco growers and cigar-makers, who brought with them trade secrets and authentic Cuban tobacco seeds. Some of the most skilled Cuban cigar workers continued to cultivate tobacco and produce cigars in countries with climates similar to Cuba, such as the Dominican Republic, Honduras, and Nicaragua. As a result, the cigars originating from these countries, under the supervision of Cuban expatriates, carry on the tradition in excellence that was established in Cuba.
Best Cigar Prices Director of Marketing and Certified Master Tobacconist Jeff Brown has traveled extensively sampling and researching cigars in several different countries, including Cuba, and has found that cigars produced in the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and other countries compare favorably against those being produced in Cuba. “Thanks to Cuban expatriates like Padron, Nestor Plascencia, and Rafael Nodal of Aging Room cigars, the techniques and customs once closely guarded by Cuban cigar blenders are now used to cultivate tobacco and create cigars that are available for sale in the U.S.”, Brown stated. “These guys brought over the Cuban seeds and their special skill set, and the resulting cigars are as good as, if not better than, Cubans. The quality control standards used by Padron and other factories are far superior to many factories in Cuba, which is another factor that sets U.S.-legal cigars apart – simply put, the cigars we buy here in the States are far more consistent and well made than most Cuban cigars.”
Best Cigar Prices carries a wide variety of cigars from brands with Cuban roots like Padron, Plasencia, Aging Room, Don Pepin, Raices Cubanas, and many others, at the lowest prices available on the internet. The company invites you to try cigars from these “Cuban heritage” companies for yourself and see how they compare to the legendary Cuban cigars.
Best Cigar Prices is a leading online distributor of discounted premium cigars, serving cigar aficionados worldwide since 1997. The company’s global headquarters in Drums, Pennsylvania features a state of the art, warehouse-sized cigar humidor that ensures quality and freshness in every cigar shipped. Best Cigar Prices offers a diverse range of cigar deals, discounts, and specials designed to make cigar shopping an easy, affordable, and rewarding experience for consumers.

Brooks Entertainment Inc. dba. Brooks Financial & Entertainment Consultants ratings has spiked further with the anticipation of the launch of a new 24/7 On Demand Television Network Channel on the Cox Media Countour TV platform. The package has over 320 channels, all premium movie channels such as Sundance, Hallmark, Lifetime, Epix, Fearnet, Starz including Movie Paks of Encore, Showtime, Cinemax, HBO and more. No corporate sponsors have been revealed as of yet for the new Brooks Entertainment Inc. television channel, however, Lincoln Financial Group confirmed sponsoring the entire NFL season promotional package with Cox Media for Brooks Entertainment Inc.
Shon Brooks is one of the leaders on the IMDB http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3779078/, and when asked about obtaining this huge television sponsor for S.O.B TV™, he says “It was amazing to work with the Head of Operations for the GA Channel, John Thomas, at Lincoln Financial Group. It reminded me of a time in grade school when my father gave me tickets to watch the Philadelphia Eagles play at Veterans Stadium (Now Lincoln Financial Field). The tickets were given to him by Wally Henry and team member of the Eagles. I was fortunate as a elementary school student to dine with the players, wives, and head coaching staff after the game while being at the stadium. The motivational talks before and after the game in the locker room left a lasting impression on how to persevere and win. I took the motivational messages directly to heart because I thought that they were talking directly to me, since I was in the room.”
Shon Brooks got his start in television writing, producing, and hosting career as a teenager right out of high school. He gained experience on Southwestern Cable TV (now Time Warner) and Cox Communications (now Cox Media) by producing a show called, “Making A Difference.” He learned how to host and produce shows from the network supervisors in their Public Access television studio on the weekends while working pro bono.
Ron Hebert, studio supervisor of Time Warner said, “Shon Brooks has been instrumental in assisting several producers with their studio productions since I first met him. Shon was a SWCTV certified community producer and was qualified to schedule the production facilities on an “as available, first come, first served basis.”
Thereafter, Shon won his first major contract with the United States Olympic Committee ( #USOC ) to write, produce and host this same variety show called, “Making A Difference,” for the Summer Olympic Games. This became the official creation of Brooks Financial & Entertainment Consultants.
Colette Duncan, Associate Director of The United States Olympic Committee said, “The staff and athletes of the Olympic Training Center are pleased to appear on your show this season. As evidenced by previous shows, I know that the interviews you conduct with our new director, Benita Fitzgerald, and several of our athletes will be professional and fair. Good luck on your upcoming season.”
The show later won a Time Warner award for the “Talk Show Category” at the Del Mar Fair Video Expo, says the Entry Supervisor, Teresa A. Barth of the Del Mar Fair.
At the same time, Shon earned his way through college by working at Continental Airlines (now United Continental Holdings), New York Life, and Brooks Financial & Entertainment Consultants until graduation. After graduating from college he gained more popularity for creating a timeless television show called “S.O.B”™ that empowers young people to take control of their lives and become successful adults. The S.O.B television™ show’s high profile broadcast includes traffic spots during the 76 Academy Awards, NFL Network, NBA, Fox Sports 1, ESPN, NCM Media Networks, and multiple television cross-channels. The brand now embarks on approximately 4 billion views unplugged including China with the release of the Brooks Entertainment Inc. international brands. http://www.pakistan.tv/videos-shon-brooks-interview-with-don-king-%5By0XFPq-uZrg%5D.cfm, #SOBTELEVISION.
Shon Brooks of Brooks Entertainment Inc. invented a cigar for the gifted critical thinker and extreme competitor based on astuteness, innovation, creativity, intelligence, and being accountable for one’s status. This brand was created for the ‘Vanquisher’ in making wise choices and decisions in life.
The S.O.B™ Dominican cigar brand’s heritage is from Tabaqueria Carbonell CXA founded in 1894. Shon Brooks discovered Jose Rivas in the same area where Christopher Columbus once sailed in 1492 to help with the earlier prototypes. Brooks Entertainment Inc. has coined the phrase of planet Mars as being the ‘Cigar Planet’, because when looking at the red planet, it look like the exact image of a lit S.O.B Cigar.

Brooks Entertainment Inc. has found that these multiple country cigar and space launches may knock on the door of setting a Guinness World Record considering a safe return from Mars with NASA. (http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/Search.aspx?q=most+brand+launches). When we asked the CEO of Brooks Entertainment Inc. about their brands going into orbit with NASA, Shon Brooks says, “Our mission has always been to work with the best and the brightest people. At the same time, keeping our corporate affiliates, clients and sponsors proud to be partnered with our corporation. The more innovative we become, means, the more innovative they become! As for NASA, it has always been a dream to be a part in any project involving NASA. Nonetheless, whether it be big or small, we thank them for allowing us to join the mission.”
Brooks Entertainment Inc. and Shon Brooks, will attempt to be the first on many levels in taking their brands to Mars on December 4, 2014 at 7:05 A.M (Eastern Standard Time). This is always music to the ears of affiliates, clients, and corporate sponsors in being associated with the first TV show, gamers, and Cigar brand to ever venture to Mars atmosphere. Brooks Financial/Entertainment/Technology takes all the risk, and Brooks Financial/Entertainment/Technology receives all the reward.

Shon Brooks of Brooks Entertainment Inc. invented a cigar for the gifted critical thinker and extreme competitor based on astuteness, innovation, creativity, intelligence, and being accountable for one’s status. This brand was created for the ‘Vanquisher’ in making wise choices and decisions in life.
The S.O.B™ Dominican cigar brand’s heritage is from Tabaqueria Carbonell CXA founded in 1894. Shon Brooks discovered Jose Rivas in the same area where Christopher Columbus once sailed in 1492 to help with the earlier prototypes. Brooks Entertainment Inc. has coined the phrase of planet Mars as being the ‘Cigar Planet’, because when looking at the red planet, it look like the exact image of a lit S.O.B Cigar.

Brooks Entertainment Inc. has found that these multiple country cigar and space launches may knock on the door of setting a Guinness World Record considering a safe return from Mars with NASA. (http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/Search.aspx?q=most+brand+launches). When we asked the CEO of Brooks Entertainment Inc. about their brands going into orbit with NASA, Shon Brooks says, “Our mission has always been to work with the best and the brightest people. At the same time, keeping our corporate affiliates, clients and sponsors proud to be partnered with our corporation. The more innovative we become, means, the more innovative they become! As for NASA, it has always been a dream to be a part in any project involving NASA. Nonetheless, whether it be big or small, we thank them for allowing us to join the mission.”
Brooks Entertainment Inc. and Shon Brooks, will attempt to be the first on many levels in taking their brands to Mars on December 4, 2014 at 7:05 A.M (Eastern Standard Time).
