Happy Hour - Camacho Corojo Toro

On this episode of Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour, Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy light up the Camacho Corojo Toro -- and find out what happens when a cigar sits quietly in the humidor for nearly four years before finally getting its turn. The guys break down the cigar’s oily wrapper, steady construction, black-and-red pepper spice, wood notes, and just enough underlying sweetness to keep things interesting, even if it doesn’t quite land in Tony’s personal wheelhouse.

They also stumble into an actual surprise during a Gas Station Find when Big Sipz Chocolate Martini turns out to be far more drinkable than either of them expected. What starts as a joke ends with comparisons to a White Russian, a rare moment of approval, and the shocking possibility that a three-dollar gas station drink might actually be party-worthy.

Along the way, they get into rotating cigars in the humidor, frozen burger tricks that may or may not be gourmet, dog walkers treating Fingers’ mailbox like public property, the challenge of talking about Iran when the story keeps changing by the hour, and why this may be the first truly successful gas station find in show history.
