This week, Scott, Greg, Larry, and Anthony load up the humidor for a double header worth savoring. First up, we crack open the newest release from Apostate Cigars — The Lost Pages — marking the brand's surprising first foray into machine-made cigarillos. Can Apostate translate their signature magic into a smaller, faster format? We break it down stick by stick.

Then we switch gears entirely, torching up the Drew Estate Blackened S84 in Toro — a bold, whiskey-barrel-aged powerhouse that couldn't be more different from our first smoke. Two cigars, two completely different experiences, both an absolute joy to smoke.

Along the way, we dig into fan mail, trade our usual bullshit, and catch you up on the latest cigar industry news. Plus, get a sneak peek at next Sunday's special episode — our full recap of the Rocky Mountain Cigar Festival, straight from Cheyenne Wyoming.

Grab a cigar, pour something strong, and settle in — it's another episode Beyond the Humidor.

Grab your favorite stick and settle in, folks — the boys are back and this time Greg's got backup. Well, sort of.

In this episode, Greg is joined by William Brown of Brown's Life Oasis Podcast and Tommy Elledge of Traveling with Cigars and Pipes for a pregame session ahead of the Rocky Mountain Cigar Festival 2026. Three hosts, three cigars, and — as always — approximately zero functioning pieces of recording equipment. Yes, we're bringing you our patented technology disaster, live and unfiltered, because at Beyond the Humidor we believe suffering builds character (and content). On the smoking docket tonight: William's puffing away on a Kristof Tres Compadras, Tommy's working through a Nub Habano, and Greg's got his hands on the Caldwell Blind Man's Puff Chico — which, considering what's about to happen to him, feels weirdly on the nose. We're all supposedly hyped for the Festival... well, two of us genuinely are. Because unbeknownst to Greg, William and Tommy have been cooking up a little something behind the scenes, and he has absolutely no idea what's coming. Buckle up, Greg. It's gonna be a bumpy — and hilarious — ride.

So light one up, pour something brown, and settle in for cigar talk, festival hype, terrible tech luck, and a surprise that's gonna leave one host very suspicious of his co-hosts.

This week on Beyond the Humidor, Greg, Scott, Larry, and Anthony fire up a house blend that's boldly claiming Cuban, Nicaraguan, AND Dominican tobaccos in one stick — because apparently subtlety is dead and we're just throwing every hemisphere into a single wrapper now. Does it deliver, or is it a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none situation? You'll have to light one up and find out with us.

Larry, Greg, and Anthony also swap stories from the Nevada County Sheriff's Association's annual fundraiser — a good cause, good cigars, and (we're guessing) at least one questionable decision made in the name of charity.

As always, we've got a fan letter to read (don't worry, it's mostly nice), the latest cigar industry news that actually matters, and our usual completely unfiltered, borderline-unhinged banter that you've come to expect — and honestly, deserve.

Grab a cigar, pour something brown, and settle in. Just... maybe don't expect to actually get one of these sticks anytime soon. That's kind of the point.

Scott, Greg, Larry, and Anthony are back in the humidor, and this time the smoke of choice is the Ferio Tego Metropolitan Limited-Edition 30 Years — because apparently regular cigars just weren't cutting it for this crew anymore. Buckle up, this one's a full ride.

We finally get to open that listener letter — you know, the one from the guy we roasted a little (okay, a lot) last episode. Spoiler: he didn't just take it, he clapped back. Respect where it's due — the man showed up and brought receipts. We're reading it live, unedited, and reacting in real time.

Meanwhile, Scott rolled back into town from a Dominican Republic cruise looking suspiciously tan and suspiciously smug, and Anthony survived his very first-ever cruise — to Ensenada, of all places — and lived to tell the tale (barely). Naturally, the two travel stories collide into a full-blown comparison of who had the better trip, who packed the better cigars, and who made the more questionable life choices at sea.

As always, expect zero filter, a whole lot of bull, and the kind of banter that only three guys who've smoked way too many cigars together can produce.Grab something worth 30 years of aging, pour something strong, and settle in.
