Don Tomas Maduro
$148.40 – $179.78Don Tomas Maduro is another popular version of this storied brand.
This darkly wrapped edition is known for giving brand fans a bit more character than the original blend. Using a grade A Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper starts thing off. Tweaking the legendary Honduran filler with Dominican leaves adds to the smoothness. The result is a medium to slightly full bodied smoke from start to finish. Think charred hard woods, chocolate, black pepper and natural tobacco taste via a great draw. The aromatic smoke is a bonus.
Cigar Aficionado rating it a respectable 89 doesn’t hurt either.

Don Tomas Clasico
$150.53 – $206.91Having been around for over 50 years, Don Tomas Clasico is a brand worth rediscovering.
The Honduran blend enveloping this survivor is still holding up throughout the world. The addition of select Nicaraguan leaves to the filler rounds out a taste that’s been enjoyed for decades. This medium to full body, medium strength cigar still remains affordable to everyone.
How about a 90 Rating for this old soldier and being named one of the top 25 cigars of 2006 from Cigar Aficionado! Their words still ring true today. “This cigar tends to be toasty, woody and slightly sweet. Still remaining to be one of the greatest bangs for the buck in the world of premium cigars.”
If you’re looking for a great everyday smoke, Don Tomas should be in your humidor.

Diesel Whiskey Row
$167.99 – $193.99Diesel Whiskey Row is another unique collaboration with AJ Fernandez along with Diesel and the Rabbit Hole Bourbon distillery.
The binder leaves were aged in bourbon barrels from Rabbit Hole Distillery that were initially placed at the factory since 2016. The rest of the blend uses a dark 5 year old Ecuadorian Habano wrapper and fillers tobaccos from the 3 top growing regions of Nicaragua. And each of these leaves has been aged for 5 to 8 years. The result is an amazing medium to slightly full bodied smoke to say the least!
Blind Man’s Puff emphatically states, “The smoke output and construction were spot on and it’s hard to find fault with anything.” To further illustrate the characteristics, noted reviewer KATMAN describes it perfectly. “Lovely components of honey, marzipan, caramel, custard, whipped cream, black licorice, and malted milk balls. The Whiskey Row keeps you guessing.”
To say this a pleasant diversion from your everyday smoke is an understatement!

$158.22 – $176.22CAO Classic: Gold Maduro is the long awaited follow up to the original Gold entry.
It took about ten years for CAO to come up with this darkly wrapped counterpart to their legendary gold line. Cigar Aficionado had kind words in 2007 for this flavorful and medium bodied maduro, as well. “Near black, this cigar has a solid core of sweet tobacco, complemented by nuts, coffee and a hint of leather on the finish.” It goes to show you that after 15 years, this cigar is still a winner!
If you liked the original Gold, you’ll love this maduro!
