Has anyone received Cigar Magazine yet? I subscribed 8 weeks ago, but have not received an issue. Their website sure leaves much to be desired.

Yes, I received the first edition a few months ago. The next should be out any time.

How does the mag compare to C.A. and smoke?? Their website is really weak and doesn't say how many times a year the mag is sent out or have any articles or pictures of it. It looks interesting but want to know if it's worth the money?

Whether it's worth the money is relative. I think it is.

How it compares to CA? Not as glitzy and professionally done as CA(I love CA, BTW). It's primary focus is on cigars, like CA was early on.

The cigar ratings are done differently and broken up into "Mild" "Medium" and "Heavy" bodied cigars, which makes sense.

What is the web site for this "magazine" as I entered cigarmagazine.com and got Cigar Aficianado's web site.....I happen to like CA so it was comical to me that this happened!

My only concern with Cigar Magazine is a rumor I've heard that it is put out by Altadis. I'm not absolutely sure about this, but if it's true, I would imagine that they would tend to give their cigars better publicity than they deserve.

I only signed up for the free cigars, got the cigars but no magazine yet. The cigars are worth it IMHO.

I like the first issue, but for different reasons than the CA.

Cigar Magazine is put out by a direct competitor of cbid who is in fact owned by Altadis. Unbiased reviews of Altadis cigars and the cigars the competitor sells? No doubt.
