Camacho Connecticut
$31.68 – $180.00The Camacho website introduces the Connecticut by stating, “This is one Camacho smoke that doesn’t kick in the door. It knocks. And enters with a mild, smooth taste.” With that being said, as the high ratings came in, the industry knew this cigar was a winner. Without a doubt, this well made cigar is not your father’s Connecticut. When the highly critical folks at Cigar Dojo rated it a 90, they described it best, “The Connecticut begins with notes of spice that grows the further you go along. It’s the same bold flavor I have come to expect from Camacho, sans the heaviness you get from stronger blends. The blend of Dominican and Honduran tobaccos brought out the spice but with hints of sweetness not found in other Camachos.”

Alec Bradley Project 40
$119.88 – $205.20Alec Bradley Project 40 is the first of the company’s new Experimental Series blended by Alan Rubin himself.
With attention to detail, Project 40 is being produced at Jesus Fuego’s factory in Estelí, Nicaragua. With this in mind, it includes a complex blend made up of a Nicaraguan wrapper covering a Brazilian habano binder and filler tobaccos from Nicaragua. What’s more amazing is that this amazing medium bodied cigar sells for around $5.
It’s safe to say that this 2019 “Experiment” is a huge success. To put it another way, Cigar Aficionado @ 92, Halfwheel @ 91, Blind Man’s Puff @ 92 and Cigar Authority @ 91. And that’s just for starters! Need we say more about this fantastic cigar that you can thoroughly enjoy any time of the day!

Punch Gran Puro Nicaraguan
$124.02 – $154.62The dark, oily appearance of this cigar may lead you to believe its something its not. In fact, this stick is a very rich medium to full bodied smoke with a subtle sweetness paired with complex, earthy natural tobacco flavors. They burn slowly and cooly and can be enjoyed from start to finish. I love the Double Coronas when I have the time to kill.

Tatuaje Reserva Broadleaf
$81.00 – $270.00We’ve often spoke about age as it pertains to tobacco. When this edition launched ten years ago, many felt it came to market before its time. While all the right components were in place, the fillers and binder were considered a bit young. With passing years, this cigar has gotten better and better. As the guts of this stick have matured and seasoned, their encasement around a Porterhouse grade of USA Grown Connecticut Shade wrapper turned the tide. In fact, this medium to full bodied stick has gotten so good they’re difficult to find most of the time. Get them when we have them.

Tatuaje Nicaragua
$168.75 – $292.50The carefully chosen Nicaraguan fillers and binder that are encased with a USA Grown Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper produce what some have said is an acquired taste. Although it’s medium in body, it’s also light in taste. This is a long burning stick that’s easy to handle.

Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne
$49.00 – $227.03Nick Perdomo and his Dad are well renowned cigar makers. I’ve watched them grow to one of the world’s powerhouse teams producing a wide array of highly rated premiums. In fact, over 20 years ago I remember Nick personally traveling around the country and winding up in my Long Island store soliciting for business! Many years later when I went to the last big Cigar Show trying to see him was like trying to see a rock start! His success is well earned.
When this 10th Anniversary Champagne line was launched it was well received. Let’s face it, Perdomo only makes great cigars! The Ecuadorian Connecticut seed wrapper encasing this Nicaraguan stick yields a mild taste with a nice bit of sweetness.

CAO introduced the Flathead into the marketplace in 2015 and it received 90+ ratings immediately! This solid medium to full bodied cigar is a box pressed beauty. It’s dark oily wrapper encloses a terrific blend of fillers and binders that yield a great open draw, slow burn and robust complex taste.
When Cigar Aficionado rated it an astounding 95, everybody took notice. Their review still stands. “From the first light, this seriously squared-off cigar takes off with notes of ripe fruit, leather and molasses that only gain intensity as it smokes.”

Bolivar Original
$53.00 – $187.00Bolivar Original is the Dominican edition of this famous Cuban brand coming to us from Forged Cigars within the General Cigar portfolio.
This complexly blended Original version is a smooth smoking, medium to full bodied jewel. No surprise Cigar Aficionado bestowed it with a very respectable score of 90. Their description is perfect. “A rich brown wrapper. This cigar burns and draws well, with creamy, slightly sweet flavors. A well-made cigar.” Many smokers may also pick up subtle undertones of dried fruit and coffee as the cigar progresses, making it a dynamic and evolving smoke.
Without a doubt, Bolivar Dominican cigars are known for their complexity and subtle power, reflecting the personality of this iconic brand. The 8 count box of 5.5 x 50 Robusto Crystal Glass Tubes are the top pick here. They also make a great gift for any cigar lover.

Cusano 18 Double Connecticut
$27.99 – $124.74Ok, I’m sticking my neck out here. I think this is one of the absolute best cigars you can buy for the price. Oddly enough, this edition has been flying under the radar for over 15 years. Since it’s been available, I’ve emphatically recommended it more times than I can remember. Davidoff acquired the Cusano brand many years ago and performed magic with the brand. All you need to know is that every component in these cigars has been seriously aged up to 18 years. The result of this true luxury blend is a spectacularly tasty, rich and flavorful mellow to medium flavored jewel with a great draw and a perfect burn. Try a five pack when we have them and see for yourself.

Warped La Hacienda
$182.70 – $250.00Warped La Hacienda and La Hacienda First Growth are two very popular blends from this amazing cigar maker.
First off, La Hacienda is a Nicaraguan puro featuring a Corojo wrapper. This blend comes in two sizes – Superiores (a 5 5/8 x 46 Corona Gorda) and a Gran Robusto (5 1/2 x 52). Making this cigar such a hit is its appeal to such a wide range of smokers. Starting off on a mild note then soon evolving into a smooth, balanced and slightly sweet medium bodied smoking experience. Cigar Coop is quite impressed with the La Hacienda line rating it a respectable 90.
Moving on to the First Growth blend, everything amps up. Here, the aged vintage blend of Nicaraguan leaves adds more flavor, body and strength across the board. For the record, with a Cigar Dojo score of 90 , Cigar Coop at 91 and the Cigar Authority with a 92……You know its a winner as well.
Either one you choose is a top pick for sure!

RoMa Craft Neanderthal
$121.50 – $540.00RoMa Craft Neanderthal is unquestionably one of this company’s great creations.
Neanderthal consists of 6 different filler tobaccos including an exceptionally strong variant of Double Ligero from Pennsylvania known as Green River Valley. With a mix like this, there is absolutely no question this is a very robust smoke. But don’t take our word for it. The verdict is unanimous.
Cigar Authority quickly scores it a 93. They think….”The cigar was like dining on a steak.” Noted reviewer KATMAN ups the score to 94. He loves it and thoroughly enjoys the full body yet smooth strength. Developing Palates heartily believes Neanderthal is a big win for the company. Simply Stogies rates it a 93, they describe it perfectly. “Puff by puff, this cigar is evolving into a wonderful smoke.” Cigar Dojo thinks it’s a 91 declaring this cigar makes for a unique smoking experience with great flavor transitions. Leaf Enthusiast tells us if you love a strong cigar that tastes great, too, you surely can’t go wrong with this one. Their rating of 95 backs it up for sure!
Enough said!

Rocky Patel Sun Grown Maduro
$50.63 – $244.80No one disputes that Rocky Patel is one of the few Titans of the Premium Cigar Industry. Over 20 years ago as he began his quest to get a foothold in the marketplace he actually got in his car and traveled the country visiting high volume Tobacconists unannounced! When he wound up in my store to sell his first entry, I hesitantly took a chance on him. Actually, he was such a nice and appreciative person I couldn’t resist! The rest is cigar history!
This cigar is a masterpiece. Not only did it rank #2 of the top 25 cigars in 2016, it garnered a 95 rating beating out many of its Cuban competitors! Make no mistake, this dark cigar is a very complex extra full bodied smoke. While the Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper gives this box pressed stick a bit of sweetness along the way, the bold, robust taste is smooth to the finish.

Macanudo Inspirado Red
$51.49 – $133.49Everyone knows that if you occasionally enjoy a full bodied Cuban style smoke, Macanudo isn’t your first choice. That was then and Red is now! Macanudo Inspirado Red is another of the company’s hugely successful boutique entries.
For the record, Macanudo claims this Inspirado is the boldest of the line. With attention to detail, this box pressed Red blend uses an Ecuadoran Habano ligero wrapper blended with Nicaraguan fillers including twelve-year aged Nicaraguan Ometepe, ten-year aged Honduran Jamastran and five-year-aged Nicaraguan Esteli, and a Jalapa binder. To say this is a very complex blend is an understatement!
Cigar Coop rates the Red a respectable 90. The description is spot on on all fronts. “This was an excellent offering. While it’s not a cigar that will knock you down with strength, it is a cigar that delivers on a fuller-bodied experience. I found the flavor profile to be quite enjoyable and things worked nicely in the box-press format. While it is fuller, it’s a great cigar for a novice to graduate to something fuller – and will appeal to the more seasoned cigar enthusiast.”
Needless to say, this four country blend will gently push you back in your seat! If your a fan of robust and flavorful cigars, look no further. This box pressed beauty will satisfy every full bodied smoker’s palate.

If you’re a mild to medium guy, move away from this one unless you’re game for an eye opening experience and introduction to a whole new level of taste. Buckle Up!

CAO Classic: Pilon
$138.42 – $179.82CAO Classic: Pilon continues to be one of this company’s best sellers for almost a decade.
Pilon gets its name from the fermentation technique that goes back to 1800s Cuba. Skilled workers called piloneros used a slow, 18-month fermentation technique using smaller round pilons instead of today’s huge square ones. The result is an enjoyable smoke producing a complex medium to full bodied flavor with a great blend of sweetness and spice. In fact, when Blind Man’s Puff recently revisited this cigar, their rating went from 91 to 93!

$70.00 – $350.10Ok. So you found yourself looking at Julius Caesar cigars. You’ve heard about them being very, very good and being somewhat expensive. You heard right! Truth is they’re better than very, very good and kind of pricey. Granted, they’re priced better at our site than in your local store.

Brick House Maduro
$159.00 – $181.12The first thing you have to know about the Brick House brand is that its brought to us from JC Newman, The purveyors of the Julius Caesar and Diamond Crown Super Premiums. When the medium bodied Brick House Classic Original came onto the scene in 2010 it was listed as one of the top 25 cigars of the year. Six years later when it was reviewed again it received a 93 rating. It’s safe to say that 10 years later, every savvy tobacconist’s humidor has Brick House available.
This spectacular Brick House Maduro appeared in 2017 to rave reviews and a 91 rating. This full flavored, rich tasting aromatic stick is so smooth you’ll never want it to end.
