La Gloria Cubana Maduro
$137.99 – $192.99La Gloria Cubana Maduro remains one of world’s best Maduros even after over 30 years.
This classic Maduro stays true to its Natural original. It also consists of a hand proprietary blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers. Binding this special tobacco is the same vintage Nicaraguan binder. The big difference here is the dark and oily Grade A Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. As with its Natural counterpart consistency also describes this very special Maduro. The result is craftsmanship delivering rich, smooth flavor and incredible natural tobacco taste. It’s safe to say that this Maduro is still the benchmark for the mark.
In 1993 Cigar Aficionado rated this gem a respectable 90. Their description is short and to the point. “A very dark, oily wrapper. This cigar has a rich, creamy taste that is brimming with sweet, spicy flavors.” In 1996 it scored the same. And pretty much the same year after year after year. It’s very safe to say this Maduro delivers a rich flavor savoring smokers palates for generations remaining a fan favorite to this day.

Macanudo Inspirado Orange
$50.99 – $133.69Macanudo Inspirado Orange is the first of the company’s hugely successful boutique entries.
With that being said, the Inspirado Orange line started out as a European exclusive, but eventually made its way to the United States in 2018. Since then, Inspirado Orange has earned countless awards and solidified its spot as a humidor must-have worldwide.
Unlike the traditional Cafe series, this style was more medium bodied with a smooth character and more moderate price. The success of the “Orange” entry led to the additions of Black, Red, White and Green Inspirado brands.
Receiving a 92 rating from Cigar Aficionado caught the eyes of many non Macanudo smokers to say the very least. Their description is spot on. ” Inspirado Orange is simply a great cigar that produces a rich, buttery smoke enriched by leather and mesquite qualities and a bright finish of almonds and black pepper.” Getting a 93 from Blind Man’s Puff backs up the accolades as well. “This was an enjoyable cigar from start to finish.”
If you’ve never tried one of these highly rated cigars, now’s you chance. Any one you choose is a top pick!

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.

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.
