Ferio Tego Timeless Prestige is a very popular addition to this legendary brand.
The Prestige contains a complex, new world blend of six tobaccos from three countries. This includes a silky Honduran wrapper, prime Dominican binder, and vintage filler tobaccos from Dominican Republic and Nicaragua.
No doubt the results speak for themselves. Cigar Aficionado rates it a respectable 90. They describe it perfectly. ” This cigar has a fine draw and even burn. It’s a nutty, woody smoke showing cedar and almond, but sweeter notes of molasses and vanilla bring balance without making the cigar too sweet.” The folks at Cigar Coop give the Prestige a rating of 92. Their conclusion is spot on. “This was one tasty smoke!” In other words, if you’ve never tried a Timeless, the Prestige should be your first!

Leaf by Oscar’s Island Jim is certainly one of the most unique offerings from this renowned cigar maker.
This masterfully crafted Torpedo sized cigar is made in two two blends. With attention to detail, each one yields a very flavorful medium bodied smoking experience. Both contain vintage Honduran fillers and binder leaves. It’s the choice of wrappers that make things very interesting. Pick the Nicaraguan Jalapa one and you’ll taste that Nicaraguan signature of underlying strength. Choose the San Andres version and you get a Ecuadorian Grown Connecticut leaf around the foot. How’s that for complexity!
No doubt, any Island Jim you choose is a top pick. And either can be enjoyed anytime of the day by all smokers.

Crowned Heads Juarez is a value-conscious alternative to the company’s popular Jericho Hill brand.
Juarez is a full-bodied cigar with a San Andres Mexican wrapper and tobaccos from Ecuador, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic. To call this robust cigar a flavor bomb is an understatement. Noted reviewer KATMAN rates it a 91. His summary confirms this for sure. ” There is a new caramel or butterscotch flavor. It gives the creaminess a leg up. And now a strong peanut element appears. With the fruitiness and baked bread flavors, it is like smoking a PB&J.”
Cigar Authority ups the score to 94 exclaiming…”It’s incredibly rich and flavorful and a definite must have.” And then there’s Cigar Coop scoring a respectable 90. Their summary is perfectly said. “It definitely provided a smoother smoke than your typical San Andres offering, and brought a nice balance of sweetness and spice to the forefront.”
Juarez is a must try for sure!

This amazing medium to full-bodied cigar is deliciously complex. No doubt the Matacapan Mexican binder and the USA grown Pennsylvania Broadleaf ligero filler combined with Vintage Nicaraguan leaves is a key contributor. As with all Dunbarton sticks, this one is perfected made and gives off a wonderful aroma. The bonus here are the tasting notes, and there are many. Black cherry, cinnamon, red licorice, dark coffee and of course…just enough spices. Enjoy this truly great cigar!

What is it about Warped Futuro? As the story goes, Eduardo Fernandez created Fernandez Aganorsa farms in 1998 to produce the finest cigar tobacco in the world along with the most talented growers from Cuba.

This edition’s intricate blend of 1998 Criollo and 1999 Corojo long leaf fillers encased in a 1999 Corojo wrapper represents Aganorsa rarest and finest vintage tobacco.

Since its launch in 2003, Pete Johnson’s Tatuaje cigar portfolio has grown to include more than 20 brands—both in regular and limited production and has grown from unknown status to one of the cigar industry’s highly rated and sought-after boutique cigar brands. Johnson himself has also evolved from an unknown newcomer to visionary and respected industry entrepreneur.
This Black edition was very elusive to most folks for a long while. After an exhausting series of sporadic releases, it’s nice to know you can get it on our site. This 92 rated, full bodied Nicaraguan puro wears a dark, oily, aged sun grown Criollo wrapper encasing a very interesting blend of fillers and binder. The result is smooth and strong smoking experience that actually yields a sweetness reminiscent of a nice red wine! The petite lancero is my favorite.
