Welcome to another week of cigars, stories, and steals.
This week’s spotlight is on Lure Cigars, a boutique brand built on fishing memories, family rituals, and nostalgic smokes. We also take a strange trip into the past with our fun fact: Did you know cigar ash was once used in homemade toothpaste?
Meanwhile, the cigar world sees Diesel’s Sideshow return, another limited Crowned Heads release, and some serious courtroom drama over the Cohiba name.
Also huge shoutout to our top sponsor this week: Best Cigar Prices. They just launched a custom Stogies & Steals landing page loaded with exclusive box deals just for our readers. 👏 (Check it out here)
On the topic of deals! Let’s just say the CAO 8-pack is back, infused samplers are flying, and Oliva 2nds are as steal-worthy as ever.

Brand Of The Week
Lure Cigars (Check Them Out)
Smoke Great Cigars & Tell Tall Tales
Lure Cigars was born out of personal tradition and storytelling. Rooted in fishing memories shared between father and son, the brand is more than tobacco it’s about heritage, conversation, and the moments we remember.
Why Lure Stands Out
The founder channels childhood memories of fishing expeditions, coffee, and cigars into each blend creating a brand built on ritual and nostalgia.
Lure positions itself around the notion of “Tackle & Tobacco,” encouraging smokers to slow down, enjoy the pull (of a cigar or a fishing line), and share stories.
The mission is simple: bring people together through premium craft cigars and meaningful encounters.

Weekly Interesting Cigar Facts
Cigar Ash Was Once Used to Make Toothpaste
Yes, you read that right! In the 1700s and 1800s, cigar and pipe ash was sometimes used as an ingredient in homemade toothpaste!
Before modern dental hygiene products existed, people experimented with all kinds of abrasive substances to clean their teeth. One popular DIY mixture combined cigar or pipe ash with crushed charcoal, salt, and water to form a gritty paste. The ash helped scrub away plaque and stains though it was far from gentle on the enamel.
Some even believed that tobacco ash had antiseptic properties, although we now know that might’ve caused more harm than good. Still, it’s a quirky reminder of how far we’ve come and how cigars once played a role in routines far beyond the smoking lounge.
