Perdomo Bourbon Barrel Aged Maduro
$38.00 – $204.00Nick Perdomo and his Dad are well renowned cigar makers. I’ve watched them grow to one of the world’s powerhouse teams producing a wide array of highly rated premiums. In fact, over 20 years ago I remember Nick personally traveling around the country and winding up in my Long Island store soliciting for business! Many years later when I went to the last big Cigar Show trying to see him was like trying to see a rock start! His success is well earned. As a Craft beer and Single Malt fan, I was elated when Perdomo created his Craft Beer Series which I’ve reviewed on our site. Bourbon fans can now rejoice as well! As well aged as the Nicaraguan long fillers are in this cigar, the hook is that the Ecuadorian grown Connecticut seed wrapper has been aged six years! The bonus for all you spirit lovers is that the wrapper was then allowed to cure in Single Batch Bourbon barrels for ten months. This maduro edition is a medium to full bodied smoke that delivers a robust taste with subtle hints of bourbon along the way.

Baccarat Game
$23.00 – $139.00First off this brand is produced by Davidoff. This value priced cigar is one of America’s top sellers. Why? It’s mild, consistent and affordable. Baccarat is an everyday smoke for countless smokers throughout the country. I recommend a five pack of very cool burning Lanceros and you’ll see what I mean. The bonus is that if you age them for at least six months they get better! Origin - Honduras Filler - Honduran Binder - Mexican Wrapper Type - Connecticut Broadleaf -

Perdomo Special Craft Pilsner CT
$35.00 – $189.00Nick Perdomo and his Dad are well renowned cigar makers. I’ve watched them grow to one of the world’s powerhouse teams producing a wide array of highly rated premiums. In fact, over 20 years ago I remember Nick personally traveling around the country and winding up in my Long Island store soliciting for business! When I went to the last big Cigar Show trying to see him was like trying to see a rock start! His success is well earned. When he created the Craft Series, the industry was stunned. As Craft Beers began to rise and take a foothold throughout the country many of us have to come to enjoy these small batch beverages. Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos combined with a Connecticut Shade wrapper produced a mild and mellow smoke. As the picture on the package shows this cigar is a great mate with light beers and ales along with golden lagers.

CAO New Age: MX2
$13.00 – $143.00This edition was produced over 15 years ago to achieve one purpose; to test the capability of your taste buds! This dark, oily, full bodied stick achieves its goal via a five country blend of fillers and binder with a serious twist. Underneath the ominous looking USA grown Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper lies an even darker Brazilian Maduro one. While this total combination produces undertones of sweetness, spice and espresso…..it’s a very strong stick! Buckle up!

CAO New Age: Flathead Steel Horse
$30.00 – $146.00I rode a motorcycle for many years until I decided the risk wasn’t worth the thrill so I got a kick out of this editions entry after the introduction of the absolutely amazing original Flathead. I loved the packaging and its theme but I’m sorry to say not the cigar so much. But hey…that’s just me. If you’re a fan of this stick, I apologize. It just seemed that the five country blend didn’t produce anything like the original considering its price and name.

Cusano M1 Connecticut
$36.99 – $44.99The Cusano family sold their company to the folks at Davidoff some years ago. This value priced cigar is probably one of the best sticks available for under $3! This is a mild to medium bodied smoke that’s worth far more than its price! Origin - Dominican Republic Filler - Dominican Binder - Connecticut Wrapper Type - Ecuador Connecticut -
Camacho Powerband
$37.99 – $169.99Camacho is an old tried and true brand. It was a staple in most every cigar store. The odd thing was that only savvy smokers knew just how good the cigar actually was. Davidoff purchased the company some years back and spent a ton of money to repackage and relaunch the brand. Their efforts worked! Thousands of new smokers discovered what a great cigar Camacho is. As Davidoff expanded this brand’s offerings, more of us tried them and found a favorite. All I can say about the Powerband style is, "Buckle Up!" If you're a fan of Cuban Styled smokes, this extremely full flavored cigar will test your metal. By using 20 a year old Ecuadorian Habano wrapper combined with a five country blend, this bad boy is fabulously robust and intense. The perfect draw will allow you to catch your breath in between puffs! Origin - Honduras Filler - Dominican-Honduran-Nicaraguan Binder - Mexican Wrapper Type - Habano -

Alec Bradley Magic Toast
$41.00 – $175.00The story we've heard goes like this. When Alec Bradley's owner, Alan Rubin stumbled upon a large, well aged stockpile of forgotten leaves on a Honduran tobacco farm, he inspected it, burned some and made a primitive cigar and tasted it and was so amazed that he took out his flask of whiskey and made a toast to the future of what would be another great cigar. All you need to know about this highly anticipated and well received cigar is that it's not for beginners. Even though it contains the pronounced flavors of strong coffee and caramel, this is a very strong full bodied smoke that increases highly in intensity as you move along. This is one of the cigars I enjoy with a single malt when I want to start seeing double towards its finish! Buckle up! Origin - Honduras Filler - Honduran-Nicaraguan Binder - Honduran-Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - Honduran -
Alec Bradley Black Market Esteli
$36.00 – $178.00OK. You’ve probably tried and enjoyed the original, 90 rated black market and are wondering what this newer Esteli style is all about. Well………93 rated and ranked the #9 cigar of the year it was introduced for starters! Think Original Black Market on steroids! More Robust, spicier, more Cubanesque and priced right! Buckle Up!

Alec Bradley American Sun Grown
$24.00 – $125.00When 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 the Sun Grown line came out in 2018 the Churchill garnered a 91 rating. 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. I highly recommend a five pack of churchills. Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - Sun Grown -

AJ Fernandez Bella Artes Maduro
$40.00 – $187.00Most of us know that virtually all of AJ’s brands have been 90+ rated cigars. It’s really just a matter of personal taste which one ends up being your favorite. The original Bella Artes edition was launched in 2017 and was well received and highly rated. In 2019 this 90 rated dark skinned beauty hit the scene to rave reviews across the board. The addition of a triple fermented, Brazilian maduro wrapper encasing this box pressed Nicaraguan puro produces a medium to full bodied smoke possessing very pronounced notes of cocoa and coffee. As I've said before, AJ has produced some of the world's greatest cigars over the years giving us more and more choices to taste his unmatched skills. This is another addition worth a try.

Back 2 Back Nicaragua
$25.99 – $294.99The “Back2Back” brand was launched by Davidoff in 2018 as a fairly priced “Meat and Potatoes” smoke. My only issue with the company was only offering them in huge boxes of 50 sticks. This dark and oily Nicaraguan puro is a smooth, flavorful medium bodied cigar. This well made stick is balanced and consistent with pleasant notes of coffee and spices. While the overall taste increases slightly in intensity as you move along, it remains balanced and enjoyable to the finish.

Back 2 Back Connecticut
$25.99 – $294.99The “Back2Back” brand was launched by Davidoff in 2018 as a fairly priced “Meat and Potatoes” smoke. My only issue with the company was only offering them in huge boxes of 50 sticks. In short, they’re well made mild to slightly medium-bodied cigars with a pleasant complexity. Even the enormous Gordo remains consistent with its smaller siblings yielding a slight sweetness and balanced, mellow smoothness. If you enjoy tamer tasting cigars, this is a good one to try. The Nicaraguan contents contribute a brighter character without being overpowering. Pick a size and try a five-pack.
