I've only had the Freki by them. It was a pleasure to experience. I really enjoy the cigar pipes as well. I'm excited.

Wrapper: Nicaraguan Binder: Nicaraguan Filler: Nicaraguan Strength: Medium to Full Vitola: Toro (6 x 52) Pairing Suggestion: Dark lager, stout, or whiskey-barrel-aged ale 🍺 🔹 First Third Right from the toast, you’re greeted with a creamy oak base and a slight pepper spice that tingles the retrohale. There’s a touch of sweetness — think caramelized malt or molasses — that perfectly hints at the beer-inspired theme. The draw is smooth, smoke output is thick, and the construction tight. Main flavors: Toasted oak, mild pepper, sweet malt, and a touch of nuttiness. 🔹 Middle Third The cigar opens up beautifully here. The spice mellows out while the profile deepens into roasted nuts, cocoa, and a light espresso note. There’s also a subtle creaminess that ties everything together, giving it a rich but balanced feel. Main flavors: Roasted nuts, cocoa, espresso, creamy texture, light sweetness. 🔹 Final Third By the final stretch, the Bricktoberfest turns darker and fuller. Charred oak, black coffee, and a hint of leather dominate the finish. The body is more robust but still smooth — no harsh edges, just depth and warmth that lingers beautifully. Main flavors: Charred oak, dark coffee, leather, touch of spice reappearing on the finish. 🔸 Final Thoughts The Bricktoberfest is a perfect fall cigar — hearty, balanced, and made for cool evenings with a dark beer in hand. It’s got the signature Brick House smoothness but with a seasonal twist — a toasty, malty richness that lives up to the name. Rating: 9.1/10 ✅ Excellent construction ✅ Balanced transitions ✅ Perfect with beer or whiskey 💨 A must-smoke for Brick House fans

Choosing the right cut changes how your cigar smokes. Here’s a quick breakdown: 1. Straight Cut ✂️ - The classic and most popular. - Gives the widest, easiest draw. - Best for: almost all cigars, especially large ring gauges. 2. V-Cut 🔻 - Creates a wedge-shaped channel in the cap. - Produces a concentrated, flavorful draw. - Best for: thicker cigars or when you want more intensity. 3. Punch Cut 🥊 - Cuts a small hole in the cap. - Provides a tighter draw, less loose tobacco. - Best for: smaller ring gauges and cigars with delicate wrappers. 💡 Pro Tip: Try all three — you’ll find that certain blends taste better with specific cuts. 👉 Which cut do you use most often?

One of the best ways to experience a cigar’s full flavor is by retrohaling — pushing the smoke gently out through your nose. You don’t inhale into your lungs — instead, you let the smoke travel from your mouth through your nasal passages. Why it matters: - Unlocks hidden flavors your palate can’t catch alone. - Helps you pick up subtle notes like spice, wood, or sweetness. - Gives you a deeper appreciation for the blend. 👉 Have you tried retrohaling before? If so, what flavors did you pick up that surprised you? #TheStogieClubhouse #CigarTalk #CigarEducation
