Montecristo Platinum
$167.91 – $389.60Montecristo Platinum is one of this iconic company’s most popular cigars for over 20 years.
For the record, the Platinum series is still pleasing discerning smokers since 2002. With attention to detail, this great cigar consists of quite the intriguing and complex blend of cigar tobaccos from four countries. When Cigar Aficionado gave the Churchill a 94 rating, it beat out most of it’s Cuban competitors. Their short and sweet description still applies today. “A hearty, meaty smoke with flavors of salty, roasted nuts and wood on the palate.”
Without doubt, this Montecristo is a long standing winner. To put it another way, aficionados will continue enjoying Platinum for years to come.
Like its counterparts, Platinum is perfectly made with a great draw. The bonus is this medium-full bodied beauty increases in intensity as you move it along to the glorious finish.

Montecristo Pilotico
$74.00 – $352.00Montecristo Pilotico is a very special edition from this long storied brand.
This 2017 creation has an interesting heritage. It turns out that around 50 years ago, Jose Pepe Mendez came upon a region in the Dominican Republic that proved to be perfect for growing tobacco leaves. It was here where he planted what is known as his Pilotico seeds. As time passed he also gained a reputation for establishing many growing techniques and grading guidelines that still exist today in the industry. The master blenders of Montecristo decided to pay homage to Mendez and his seeds by creating this three country blend that yields a sweet kind of medium bodied taste.
To put in another way, Blind Man’s Puff rated this one at 90. Cigar Coop gave it a 91. Without doubt, Pilotico is a must try for aficionados everywhere!

Montecristo Epic
$157.47 – $222.30Montecristo Epic is an epic achievement for this amazing brand. No pun intended. Even the boxes bear the signatures of the blenders that create them.
You know the name. What sets this 91 rated Epic series apart is two things. The rollers are the Maestros of the factory and the Dominican and Nicaraguan filler leaves used go back as far as 13 years.
Delivering rich nuances of caramel, chocolate, leather, espresso and cedar throughout its slow burn, without doubt this Montecristo is another winner! In other words, this is a solid medium to full bodied complex smoke that’s perfectly made, draws consistently, and is worth the price.

Alec Bradley Magic Toast
$199.80 – $232.20Alec Bradley Magic Toast is a very special cigar from this iconic company.
With attention to detail, Magic Toast employs an oily Honduran wrapper covering a double binder of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos; the fillers are also Honduran and Nicaraguan. This extremely well made medium to full bodied cigar delivers thick, rich aromatic smoke with every puff via a superb draw. What’s more important is this cigar definitely delivers an array of flavors. Think coffee, black cherry, dried fruit, malt, cedar, real earthiness, and a deep richness that is very satisfying.
While Blind Man’s Puff rates Magic Toast a respectable 90, Cigar Coop ups the score to 92. But without a doubt, it’s KATMAN that really raves about it with an astounding 95. If you haven’t tried one of these truly unique smokes, here’s your chance!

Alec Bradley American Sun Grown
$115.00 – $159.00The Alec Bradley American Sun Grown is an amazing pick by any standards.
When Alec Bradley introduced its American Blend back in 2012 it garnered high ratings and great reviews not only because it was a great overall cigar but also because it was priced right. This well made mellow to medium flavored stick was throwback to old school Florida craftsmanship. When this Sun Grown line came out in 2018 the Churchill garnered a 91 rating from Cigar Aficionado. Remember, this is a very affordable cigar! This medium-full bodied beautifully dark stick amps up the taste just a bit over the original Classic blend. However, this slow burning beauty seems as though it has double the amount of tobacco inside. Enjoy this great cigar made by Plasencia Cigars in Estelí, Nicaragua.

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 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!
