Alec Bradley American Classic
$115.00 – $159.00Alec Bradley American Classic is one of this great company’s best selling cigars for over 10 years.
The American Classic still garners high ratings and great reviews not only because it’s still a great overall cigar but also because it has a more than a fair price even today. With attention to detail, this well made mellow to medium bodied cigar is a throwback to old school Florida craftsmanship. With this in mind, Alan Rubin went to the factory himself in 2011 to blend a cigar to be smoked any time of day, every day. And he did a great job!
Among many accolades, Cigar Aficionado calls this cigar a Best Buy. And we agree. A rating score of 90 sums it up. Their review says it best. “As the light wrapper suggests, this cigar is sweet and floral with a woody core, hints of cereal and a bit of dried fruit on the finish. Easygoing and mellow.”
Any size you choose is a top pick and worth twice the price.

AJ Fernandez New World Connecticut
$59.50 – $149.40AJ Fernandez New World Connecticut is another one of this company’s best offerings.
With attention to detail, A J teamed up with his son Ismael again to create this Connecticut edition offering the same complexity as the original for smokers that want a mild to medium bodied smoke. The result is a long burning and tasty cigar from start to finish. More importantly, it delivers a profile where the flavors complement each other perfectly. The ratings jury is in! Cigar Authority @ 90. Cigar Coop @ 92. Leaf Enthusiast @ 90. What more do you need to know!
If you’re looking for the quality, craftsmanship and complexity of AJ’s cigars in a smoke that can be equally enjoyed with breakfast as it can after dinner, this is the one for you!

AJ Fernandez Enclave Broadleaf
$162.00 – $189.00AJ Fernandez Enclave Broadleaf is a very unique addition to the popular Enclave line.
When the original Enclave line was launched in 2016 and garnered a 92 rating along with being named one of years top 25 cigars, most of us weren’t surprised. What sets this edition apart is AJ’s first use of a dark and oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper.
Cigar Aficionado rates it a stellar 93 describing it perfectly. ” Despite the strength of the blend (it leans toward full body), these tobaccos play off one another quite gracefully, imparting a palate of earth, mineral and salty notes before taking unexpected sweet turns that call to mind milk chocolate, vanilla bean and anise.” Full Flavor fans can rejoice once again! Without a doubt this is one of the best after dinner smokes around!

AJ Fernandez Bella Artes Maduro
$94.50 – $225.00AJ Fernandez Bella Artes Maduro is another one of this company’s best offerings. In fact, it’s one of his highest rated smokes!
With attention to detail, this dark skinned box pressed Maduro contains a Brazilian mata fina triple fermented wrapper. Combine this with a vintage Mexican San Andrés binder and fillers from AJ’s personal farms in Estelí, Nicaragua and you have a winner. The result is a spectacular medium to full bodied smoke.
Most of us know that virtually all of AJ’s brands are 90+ rated cigars. Without a doubt, this one scores off the charts across the board. Consider this, Halfwheel @ 91. Cigar Aficionado @ 91, Cigar Snob @92, Cigar Journal @ 94, Cigar Coop @ 91. If you consider yourself a Maduro lover, this is definitely your cigar!

Crowned Heads Luminosa
$24.99 – $152.15The Luminosa is another collaboration between Jon Huber and Ernest Perez Carrillo.
While the Luminosa contains a mystery blend of filler and binder leaves, what we do know for sure is that this Crowned Heads cigar is one of the most popular blends the company produces. Setting out to make a mild to slightly medium bodied smoke that’s still packed with flavor and complexity, they definitely succeeded.
Results? Cigar Coop rates it @ 90. Blind Man’s Puff rates it @ 91. Cigar Authority rates it @ 93 and noted reviewer KATMAN gave it a 94. His summary is spot on, ” The Luminosa is not a heavy cigar but smokes like one. Slow and steady as she goes. The complexity of the flavor profile is outstanding but that finish……it is almost the best part of the blend…it just keeps on chugging with no end in sight.”
The greatest facet of this outstanding cigar is that it can be thoroughly enjoyed any time of the day. It’s as great with a cup of coffee as it is with an after dinner cocktail.

Crowned Heads La Imperiosa

La Imperiosa is the blending brainchild of John Huber himself. Containing a dark oscuro Ecuadorian grown Habano wrapper around Nicaraguan filler and binder, this one is a winner! Think a perfect draw delivering an amazing array of flavors and natural tobacco taste. The jury has definitely spoken. Cigar Dojo rates it a 90 as does the Cigar Authority. Halfwheel scores it a 91. And the highly critical folks at Blind Man’s Puff rate it a 92.

La Coalicion possesses an oily Connecticut broadleaf Maduro wrapper, a sweet and spicy Sumatra leaf, and a core of Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos. This is a robust, full bodied cigar delivering a spectacular smoking experience.
Among the rave reviews, Cigar Dojo scores it a 90 giving it the best summary. “It’s clear as soon as you light this cigar that you are dealing with very high-quality tobacco that is masterfully constructed. These two industry giants (Crowned Heads and Drew Estate) have perfectly imprinted their mark on a true collaborative flavor profile. There are sure to be notes that remind you of each blender’s signature styles. The construction is immaculate and the flavor delivers in a way that any cigar connoisseur can appreciate.”

Crowned Heads Jericho Hill
$182.58 – $223.38Crowned Heads Jericho Hill ranks as the 4th entry from this great company way back in 2014.
Jericho Hill comes to us from My Fathers cigar and the mind of Jon Huber.
It’s no surprise Cigar Dojo rated this one a score of 90. Add this to what the critical folks at Halfwheel say, “It never leaves me unsatisfied; more importantly, it leaves me wanting to fire up another one.”
But there’s more! Cigar Authority bestows a score of 92 with the best summary that still stands today. “I am a huge fan of a box pressed cigars, and this one is a fine specimen with an exquisite draw, solid burn line and ultra thin carbon line.”
Cigar Aficionado rates it a 90 as well with a perfect layout of what you can expect.”Dark in appearance and flatly pressed, this cigar starts out herbal and woody, but develops heartier notes of toast, nuts and spice that lead to a licorice finish.”
If you’ve waited to try this great smoke, now’s your chance!

Crowned Heads Four Kicks Original
$168.30 – $202.98Crowned Heads Four Kicks Original is the one that started it all in 2011!
This cigar was the first collaboration between Jon Huber and Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr. This is a classic medium strength cigar that still appeals to a wide range of cigar enthusiasts.
This premier signature blend has remained a favorite for over a decade. Twelve years after its initial release Cigar Aficionado still rated it at 90. Their words for this masterfully blended medium to full bodied jewel are short and sweet. “A light beginning of herbs, anise and botanicals becomes richer with notes of raisin, malted chocolate and ground red pepper before an earthy finish. It draws and burns evenly.”
