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.

Henry Clay Original
$33.00 – $244.29A long time ago, a very wise and wealthy old man told me something I never forgot, ” When you learn how to do something right, do just that over and over again and you’ll eventually succeed.” This great brands original edition offered here has been satisfying discerning smokers for over 20 years. While their price has risen over the years like everything else, they remain well made, consistent and balanced medium to full bodied sticks. The pure Dominican fillers and binder are perfectly blended within a USA grown Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper create a rich flavorful cigar that has stood the test of time. I highly suggest a five pack of your preferred size to see for yourself.

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!

Cigar Aficionado @ 91, Cigar Snob @92, Cigar Journal @ 94, Cigar Coop @ 91. If you consider yourself a Maduro lover, this is definitely your cigar!

Alec Bradley Kintsugi
$167.40 – $226.80Alec Bradley Kintsugi is the third creation from the company founder’s sons, Alec and Bradley Rubin.
With attention to detail, this collaboration between these talented young men and the Raíces Cubanas factory in Danlí, Honduras produces an outstanding cigar. Kintsugi follows Blind Faith from 2018 and Gatekeeper from 2019. All things considered, at this point, it’s safe to say these guys are well on their way to becoming Master Blenders.
Out of all the accolades, Blind Man’s Puff describes it best. “After initial inspection I wasn’t sure what to expect, however, this cigar smoked fantastically and produced delicious flavors. From pre-light draw to last puff, the cigar performed above expectations and had great smoke output. Not exactly my cup of tea as it was a little sweeter than I prefer, but I would gladly smoke another. Fantastic smoke if you have under an hour. Nub was the best part. Puff slowly and enjoy the end my friends.” These words coupled with a score of 91 make Kintsugi another winner for sure!
