The Gentleman and The Scholar Video podcast representing all things cigar culture. Hosts: John Welsh and Dr. Alex Stanford Welcome to the Gentleman and a Scholar Youtube channel.
(1)

The first thing to note is that while this show features ci**rs, it is not a cigar show. We love ci**rs, not only for what they are, but for what they represent. This show delves into the full experience and culture of ci**rs and presents the viewers different intellectual topics through the lens of a cigar chat. John Welsh is a combat veteran, musician, and filmmaker who appreciates the classical

notion of what it is to be a gentleman and how that idea has evolved over time. Alex Stanford is a unique high functioning autist with 6 degrees (including two doctorates) who has been a stand up comedian, mathematician, lawyer, and screenwriter. Together G&S encompasses the totality of the practical and the theoretical, and through that the viewer will not only find entertainment but an appreciation of things in an all new way.

After giving our list of the 10 best smokes of 2021, we decided to formally review each and every one of them that we haven't already featured.

These ci**rs aren't always easy to get, however. We would like to set each cigar to correspond to a subscriber milestone. Every new hundred subs will see us review another cigar on our list, culminating in the big daddy itself, the Davidoff Royal.

Let's make it happen.

Keep it smoky!

The crowned head reserve 18, a solid little stick. Nice notes of marzipan and leather with some little hints of floral spice tossed in. Once she opened up she was a tasty thing.

We couldn't pass up a boutique coffeeshop and got their custom drunk, a mix of cold brew and latte on tap. Yum.

Keep it smoky!

If you were about to be executed, and you were allowed to choose any cigar in the world to smoke beforehand, what cigar would you choose and why?

I think I would choose a behike 56.
