About this Episode

This week on Eat Drink Smoke, Tony and Fingers review the AVO Expresivo Toro, a medium-to-full cigar that delivers notes of pepper, wood, coffee and plenty of complexity at a price that earns it a spot in the humidor.

They also crack open the brand-new 1792 Kentucky Straight Rye, and at just $42 a bottle, it may be one of the best whiskey values they’ve tried all year.

Plus, Fingers explains what went wrong with his pre-Labor Day brisket, why the Texas crutch killed his bark, and what he’ll do differently next time. The guys also talk retirement, why older homeowners aren’t downsizing, Gen X nostalgia, video stores, long phone cords, and the things younger generations will never quite understand.

And somehow, Old Smoky Orange Shinesicle Cream Moonshine turns out to be way better than anyone expected.
