Year of the Duque, Sinatra Select, and Redemption...

Eat Drink Smoke ·

2026/03/09

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy light up the Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Year of the Duque and immediately get stuck on the most important question of all: how exactly do you pronounce it? Along the way, they break down the cigar’s rich, low-maintenance smoking experience, talk through notes of wood, char, cocoa, and spice, and debate whether a 5x48 stick at nearly eighteen bucks earns a place in the humidor. On the drink side, they crack open Jack Daniel’s Sinatra Select and ask the big

Happy Hour -- Crux Marblehead Toro

Eat Drink Smoke ·

2026/03/07

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy light up the Crux Marblehead Toro (6x50) and immediately run into one of the most confusing cigar caps you’ll ever see. The Marblehead name comes from the 109-style Cuban cap, which sits somewhere between a traditional rounded cap and a belicoso tip. Translation: it looks cool… but it also raises an important question. Where exactly are you supposed to cut the thing? Tony and Fingers break down the cap design, the cutting strategy, and whether this cigar

This week on Eat, Drink, Smoke, Tony Katz and America’s favorite amateur drinker, Fingers Malloy, light up the Crux Marblehead Toro (6x50)—and immediately get distracted by the cigar’s weirdly fascinating 109-style “Marblehead” cap. Where do you cut it? How do you cut it? Do you need a V-cutter… or a prayer? Along the way, they break down the flavor profile (wood, spice, a little leather… maybe saddle… definitely not a handbag). On the bourbon side,

Happy Hour -- Starlight Distillery Honey Reserve Bourbon

2026/02/28

This Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour starts exactly where it should: right here in Indiana, with a limited-release bourbon that hits like a freight train and a cigar that absolutely earns its keep. Tony Katz and America’s favorite amateur drinker, Fingers Malloy, pour up the Starlight Distillery Honey Reserve Bourbon — a 106-proof, honey-barrel-finished beast coming in hot at $60 a bottle. Aged five years, blended from two mash bills, and delivering caramel apple, honey, rye spice, and a

Happy Hour -- Southern Draw Lady Killer

This week on Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour, Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy crack open the humidor and pull out something special — the Southern Draw Cigars Lady Killer, a 6½ x 46 Lonsdale created in collaboration with Privada Cigar Club back in 2021. Don’t ask how it survived that long. Just be grateful it did. Wrapped in Ecuadorian Habano Maduro, packed with Nicaraguan Corojo and Criollo tobaccos from Estelí, Jalapa, and Condega, this cigar delivers spice, cedar, a little

This week on Eat, Drink, Smoke, Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy do what any reasonable adults would do in the middle of allergy season: light up a cigar and pretend that counts as medicine. They’re smoking a Southern Draw Lady Killer — a special Privada Cigar Club release from 2021 (don’t ask how it showed up… it just did). It’s a 6.5 x 46 Lonsdale with an Ecuadorian Habano Maduro wrapper, a Nicaraguan Corojo ’99 hybrid binder, and Criollo ’98 fillers from

Happy Hour — Angel’s Envy Triple Oak

Eat Drink Smoke ·

2026/02/21

During this Happy Hour edition of Eat Drink Smoke, Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy go full “more is more” with a bottle that laughs at your double-oaked phase. They’re drinking Angel’s Envy Triple Oak (92 proof) — finished in a blend of Hungarian oak, Chinkapin oak, and French oak. It sounds like a bourbon and a passport stamp got married, and the result is… surprisingly gorgeous. On the nose, it’s oak-forward but not overpowering, with a fruit-rich note that

Happy Hour — Plasencia El Año del Caballo

2026/02/21

On this Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour, Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy light up a cigar that might belong on a very short list. They’re smoking the Plasencia El Año del Caballo (7x58) — the Year of the Horse — a big, beautifully built cigar with a braided tobacco “horse tail” cap that immediately sparks debate—gorgeous presentation, serious weight, and a feel that’s nearly perfect in the hand. Flavor-wise, this one hits early and confidently:cedar and wood,

This week on Eat, Drink, Smoke, Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy ride into the Year of the Horse with a cigar that might actually earn a spot on “the list.” They’re smoking the Plasencia El Año del Caballo (7x58) — a gorgeous, heavy, beautifully-presented stick complete with a braided “horse tail” accent. The guys break down the first-third flavors — cedar/wood, baking spice, creamy sweetness and cocoa — and get into the real question: is it worth

Happy Hour -- Clermont Steep American Single Malt...

Eat Drink Smoke ·

2026/02/16

It’s a rare day on Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour when the guys say, “Let’s try a bourbon,” and then immediately pivot to… American single malt. Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy crack open Clermont Steep from the Beam folks — an American single malt whiskey, aged five years, 94 proof, and weird enough (in a good way) to throw both of them off their normal tasting lanes. The nose hits sweet, rich, and ethanol-forward… but the palate lands ridiculously smooth, warm,

Happy Hour — Ave Maria Excalibur and Five for the...

2026/02/16

This week on the Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour, Fingers Malloy goes full bargain hunter and somehow drags Tony Katz along for the ride. The guys light up the Ave Maria Excalibur, a Cameroon-wrapped cigar that’s big, beefy, and not exactly subtle — and they do it for one simple reason: Fingers scored a five-pack for about $16.50 total on CigarBid. Yes, total. Roughly five cigars for the price of one. That leads to a two-part breakdown: The CigarBid experience (not a sponsor… and

Five for the Price of One

This week on Eat, Drink, Smoke, Fingers Malloy goes full bargain-hunter mode… and somehow drags Tony Katz into a cigar experiment that starts with one simple question: How cheap is too cheap? Fingers scored a five-pack of the Ave Maria Excalibur on CigarBid for about $16.50 — a price that’s borderline suspicious when the same cigar can run roughly $16 a stick. So the guys break down the whole “Free Fall” bidding experience (and yes, they make it crystal clear: CigarBid

Happy Hour: Old Soul High Rye Bourbon

2026/02/06

Happy Hour starts the way a lot of good pairings do—by accident. Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy reach for Old Soul High Rye Bourbon from Cathead Distillery without knowing what cigar it’s supposed to match, and end up finding something worth slowing down for. The nose comes in sweet—vanilla cake, bakery notes, and frosting—before the palate flips the script with rye spice, cinnamon heat, and a surprisingly layered finish that doesn’t behave the way the nose promises it

Happy Hour: Karatoba Robusto from OZ Family Cigars

2026/02/05

Happy Hour kicks off with a box-pressed Robusto and a simple question: what happens when a cigar everyone’s been whispering about finally gets lit? Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy fire up the OZ Family Cigars Karatoba Robusto, a 5x52 that wastes no time making its case. Early impressions land on wood, white pepper, and a creamy, nut-forward profile that quickly turns into what may be the most accurate tasting note of the night: chew the cashew. Cedar spice, nutty creaminess, and a steady, easy

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy light up a cigar that’s been getting a lot of buzz: the Oz Family Cigars Karatoba Robusto (5x52 box press)—Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and Nicaraguan/Dominican filler. Early impressions land in the sweet spot: cedar spice, nutty creaminess, and that “chew the cashew” texture that turns into an instant running joke. At around $12, the big question becomes simple: is this a daily-humidor staple? Then they pour something neither of

Happy Hour: 15 Stars First West Toasted Oak Bourbon

2026/01/31

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy crack open one of their first new bourbons of 2026: 15 Stars First West Toasted Oak Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey — a 98-proof blend of 5, 6, and 7-year bourbons out of Bardstown. The nose comes in sweet and easy — caramel, vanilla, oak — with no ethanol bite. The palate? Lighter and thinner than expected. But then the finish shows up late with oak, spice, warmth, and just enough intrigue to start an argument about value. Is this a $70 bottle?Or is

Happy Hour: Room 101 Farce, Connecticut With Attitude

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy light up the Room 101 Farce. Connecticut Super Toro (6x56) and immediately derail the show by debating pronunciation, ring gauge philosophy, and whether this thing is way bigger than anyone actually wants. And the cigar itself refuses to behave like a traditional Connecticut.Instead of creamy and mild, it comes out swinging with wood spice, cocoa, coffee-adjacent bitterness, and enough personality to raise questions about aging, draw issues, and whether Tony is suffering

Tony and Fingers light up the Room 101 “Farce” (or is it Farce) Connecticut Super Toro 6x56 and immediately get derailed by the pronunciation, the bands, and the reality that this “Connecticut” is coming in way more wood-spice / cocoa / coffee than anybody expected. Tight draw. Uneven burn threats. Pinch-and-roll diplomacy. Plus: Tony’s humidor drama turns into the cigar version of the yips, and we try to talk him off the ledge with a notebook, a weather report, and

2026/01/23

Happy Hour continues at Big Hoffa’s Barbecue in Westfield, Indiana, and things only get louder, looser, and more opinionated. Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy are still on location, still surrounded by barbecue, and still working their way through Old Forester 1897 Bottled-in-Bond, this time with a full room behind them and brisket disappearing by the pan. Joined again by Madison Tragesser from Old Forester, the conversation shifts from tasting notes to bigger questions—history, hype, and

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy head out of the studio and straight into Happy Hour at Big Hoffa’s Barbecue in Westfield, Indiana, for an Old Forester night that quickly turns into a master class in bottled-in-bond bourbon, brisket philosophy, and ketchup-related outrage. With cigars off the table, the focus stays on Old Forester 1897 Bottled-in-Bond (100 proof) from the Whiskey Row series. Fingers breaks down what he’s getting on the nose and palate—pepper, dark fruit, oak, and a
