Montesino Natural
$82.00 – $130.00It’s hard to believe this Arturo Fuente made premium brand is approaching a 30th birthday. I was young and beautiful when I smoked my first one! While the blend of leaves is different from the company’s signature line, these well made, fairly priced, medium bodied, smooth tasting sticks have remained very popular over the years. I’ve often looked at them as kind of “comfort cigars”.

Ashton Cabinet Selection
$262.50 – $430.00There’s a few reasons why 90 rated Ashtons have remained in the top ten for decades. They are made by the folks at Arturo Fuente. They are insanely consistent and remain one of the benchmarks for mild to mellow taste. If you’ve smoked them you know. If you haven’t, I envy you!
The Cabinet Selection edition amped up the flavor to a medium bodied smoke retaining the silky smoothness that Ashton is known for. The Dominican fillers used in these great sticks are aged between four and five years along with aging the Connecticut wrapper for a year. This expertly made beauty draws perfectly, burns evenly and delivers more of what the classic series offers.

Juan Lopez Seleccion
$30.00 – $118.98This is probably one of the best full bodied cigars you’ve never heard of. This 90 rated stick has been flying under the radar for over six years. What sets this Nicaraguan puro aside from many others is the characteristic of its blend, Soon after lighting up it hits you with a robust burst of flavor that begins to settle down with a bit of sweetness as you move along then ramps back up again. This is a very very flavorful cigar with a great aroma.

La Aroma De Cuba Edicion Especial
$223.75 – $248.75We offer multiple editions of this great brand for a variety of reasons. They’re all well made, consistent and accomplish their mission in overall satisfaction…bar none! This style is no exception. With the addition of an oily Cuban seed Ecuadorian wrapper to the vintage Nicaraguan fillers and binder this stick yields another variation of a wonderful smoking experience. This is a slow burning very aromatic and balanced stick that’s fairly spicey with undertones of chocolate and espresso with a bit of a firm draw. No rushing allowed…take your time with this one.
