Macanudo Inspirado Black
$126.56 – $144.54Macanudo Inspirado Black is one of the company’s four hugely successful boutique Inspirado entries.
Coming off the success of the Inspirado Orange, this Black edition amps up the game across the board. Worth noting is the Black line is not your grandpa’s Macanudo. Crafted by a proprietary and experimental process, General Cigar declares, “Cigar lovers who now see Macanudo in a new light should be prepared to be wowed yet again.” With this in mind by contrast, this Inspirado is more full bodied. With attention to detail, this blend possesses a broadleaf wrapper, Ecuador Sumatra binder and Nicaraguan filler from Estelí.
So if you’re looking for a great medium to full bodied cigar with character, this Macanudo should fit right in. A standout in the Inspirado line, Inspirado Black delivers full-bodied boldness in an innovative and balanced cigar. In short, Black is a modern interpretation of timeless knowledge and experience, and the proof is evident in each and every puff.

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!

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.”

Oliva Serie O
$80.89 – $182.01This great brand traces its roots back to 1886 when Melanio Oliva began growing tobacco in Cuba. After the revolution, his grandson Gilberto went to Spain and then settled in Nicaragua. In 1995 Gilberto and his son Gilberto Jr. launched the company.
When Series O appeared in 2008 it was highly rated and remains so all these years later. This top-selling medium-bodied “go to” stick is well made with a smooth draw. It’s really well balanced with a nice bit of sweetness and spice while not being overpowering.

Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Connecticut (7y)
$114.75 – $239.40No 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!
If you’ve read my posts you know I’m bullish on aging your cigars to enhance their taste. This beauty is encased with a 7 year old Connecticut leaf that tames the Nicaraguan and Dominican filler and binder into a super smooth and mellow smoke. Although it’s definitely a mild to medium bodied smoke, it’s so well rounded and balanced.

Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 Sumatra (10y)

If you’ve read my posts you know I’m bullish on aging your cigars to enhance their taste. As with the other Vintage series cigars, the ’90 is perfectly box pressed. The big difference is the very dark 10 year old Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper giving this medium bodied stick a thick smoke that draws and burns perfectly.

Grab a five pack and enjoy this great cigar with your favorite libation.
When the folks at The Cigar Authority gave it a 93 on their scale, one senior reviewer summed it up as follows, “A subtle mix of spices and sweetness that are enjoyable at any time of day, this is a cigar that is definitely box worthy and a welcome addition to the great Camacho portfolio.”
