Odyssey Habano
Rated 4.00 out of 5$25.35 – $40.35The Odyssey line is a super value priced array of everyday cigars brought to us by Premium powerhouse General Cigar. When the makers of Macanudo, Partagas and Punch…to name a few, decided to produce a well made economical smoke for everyone’s taste, they hit the mark! If you’re a fan of well balanced medium bodied cigars, The Habano blend is for you! Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - Habano -
Baccarat Game
Rated 5.00 out of 5$17.00 – $209.79First 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 -
Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real
Rated 5.00 out of 5$8.00 – $211.22We all know this iconic brand. There are literally dozens of Romeo y Juliet brand styles available for all of us to enjoy today. When the original 1875 line was launched in 2003 it rapidly became one of the country’s top sellers. Shortly after the launch of the Original 1875 (also listed on our site) the Reserva Real series hit the ground running. While this blend upped the flavor to the medium bodied level it remained smooth and balanced with just a hint of spice to liven up your palate. The 92 rated Porto Real is one of my favorites. Origin - Dominican Republic Filler - Dominican-Nicaraguan Binder - Dominican Wrapper Type - Ecuador Connecticut -
Gurkha- East India Trading Co. Classic Havana
Rated 4.00 out of 5$43.00 – $229.23This dark, box pressed, 90 rated Super Premium edition launched in 2015. Like all Gurkhas it's perfectly made with a great draw and yields a medium-full bodied spicy flavor. In order to deliver this Cuban Style taste, the Nicaraguan fillers and binder are encased in a San Andreas Mexican wrapper. The interesting thing about blending this particular line was that it took around 20 times for the company's owner to be satisfied. Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - San Andres -
Camacho Connecticut
Rated 5.00 out of 5$31.68 – $176.40Camacho 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. The Connecticut blend listed here is a mild but extremely tasty blend! Origin - Honduras Filler - Dominican-Honduran Binder - Corojo Wrapper Type - Ecuador Connecticut -
Romeo y Julieta 1875 Nicaragua
Rated 5.00 out of 5$30.00 – $160.60This edition is a great example of why the Romeo brand retains its top spot in the industry. As this iconic brand has evolved, Altadis has continued to expand offerings to appeal to more and more cigar lovers. This Nicaraguan puro was a surprise on many fronts. The lighter colored oily wrapper combined with the binder and fillers produced a medium bodied stick possessing nice bits of sweetness and spice without being overpowering. Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - Nicaraguan -
Montesino Natural
Rated 5.00 out of 5$25.37 – $176.50It’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”. Origin - Dominican Republic Filler - Dominican Binder - Dominican Wrapper Type - Connecticut Shade -
Rocky Patel Fifty Five
Rated 5.00 out of 5$44.00 – $268.20When I turned 55….a very long time ago….I went out for dinner. When Rocky turned 55 a few years ago, he created this small batch edition. This stick is a continuation of his efforts in blending vintage Nicaraguan fillers encased in the same country’s wrapper. The twist here was adding a Costa Rican binder and letting the finished product age way longer than most would. The result has become a favorite for many smokers. This medium to full bodied stick tastes very different than his other creations yielding an interestingly smokey flavor combined with creamy sweetness and spice. The prefecto shaped Corona is my favorite of the bunch. Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Costa Rica Wrapper Type - Nicaraguan -
La Estrella Cubana Habano
Rated 4.00 out of 5$12.00 – $64.43Take the band off this Habano wrapped cigar, give it to your buddy, let him light it up and get it going and then tell him it’s about a $3 smoke! General Cigar produced Las Estrella to give us a value priced BOXED cigar worthy of any occasion. It’s medium bodied in taste with an even burn. Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Coming Soon!

Trinidad Santiago
Rated 5.00 out of 5$34.99 – $193.83This great cigar brand is still being made in Cuba! The belicoso listed here was rated 90+ as soon as it was introduced into the marketplace. This a pure dominican smoke in every way. It’s super smooth medium bodied taste has a cuban taste without any harshness or bitterness. If you’re a fan of Super Premiums this smoke is a must try! I highly recommend a five pack of Belicosos. Origin - Dominican Republic Filler - Dominican Binder - Dominican Wrapper Type - Dominican -
Montecristo White
Rated 5.00 out of 5$45.00 – $418.01When this Cuban brand was launched in 1935, the world of Premium Cigars changed forever. Their #2 Torpedo became the world’s biggest selling cigar. I’ve had a few of them over the years and can honestly say they were ok. But that’s just me. Altadis acquired this iconic name decades ago and began producing many sizes and styles available to all of us. When this edition appeared in 2017, an entire new group of smokers discovered this brand for the first time. Many of those folks that gravitated to mild to mellow tasting cigars now had a Montecristo to call their own. The addition of tamer Nicaraguan fillers with Dominican leaves and encasing it with an Ecuadorian grown Connecticut seed wrapper yields a smooth, lighter smoke with a tiny bit of crispy spice that's enjoyable for everyone. The Court corona sized tubes are one of my favorites. Origin - Dominican Republic Filler - Dominican-Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - Ecuador Connecticut -
Rocky Patel The Edge Connecticut
Rated 5.00 out of 5$33.00 – $355.00Cigar legend Rocky Patel initially created Edge to offer a robust full bodied flavorful smoke with a Cuban punch. Soon thereafter the Connecticut style was born for the rest of us! When this cigar received a 91 rating more of us took a closer look. This version is tamer but still delivers a smooth mild to medium bodied taste. Origin - Honduras Filler - Honduran Binder - Coming Soon! Wrapper Type - Connecticut -
Rocky Patel Sun Grown
Rated 5.00 out of 5$31.00 – $212.40No 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! The sun grown edition is a chameleon like flavor changer. The 5 year old Ecuadorian Sun Grown wrapper gives it a spicy/sweet kind of taste that starts off medium bodied and smoothly escalated to a fuller level. The key word here is smooth. The 90+ rating it has while offering a lower price point is a bonus. I recommend a five pack of petit coronas to wet your whistle with. for starters. And if you do, leave one in your humidor for a year for a real treat! Origin - Honduras Filler - Dominican-Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - Ecuador Sumatra -
Rocky Patel Java Mint
Rated 5.00 out of 5$33.00 – $291.60What our headline doesn’t state about the great Java Brand is that this cigar was a joint collaboration between Rocky Patel and Jonathan Drew of Drew Estate fame! These two masters created a brand that is still going strong after 16 years! The Mint edition blend has been ever so slowly infused with just more than a hint of peppermint. To me, it’s like a bit of York Peppermint Patty! This medium bodied, very smooth and slightly sweet cigar is a real after dinner treat! Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - Brazilian -
My Father La Opulencia
Rated 5.00 out of 5$34.00 – $231.12For starters, La Opulencia received a 95-rating and was named the #2 Cigar of 2018. Make no mistake, this is a full bodied smoke. However, it’s unusually creamy and smooth along the way without harshness. I recommend a five pack of petite robustos. Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - San Andres Oscuro -
My Father Judge
Rated 5.00 out of 5$56.00 – $262.89Cigar of the year in 2013 and 2015 beating out every cigar including every Cuban entry. Box pressed, medium-full bodied gem. Get them when we have them so when we don't, you do! Enough said! Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Nicaraguan Wrapper Type - Ecuador Sumatra -
My Father Flor de las Antillas
Rated 5.00 out of 5$36.00 – $252.00Rated 96 and named Cigar of the Year in 2012 beating out every other cigar including all the Cuban entries. Medium-full bodied. Amazing. Enough said. Origin - Nicaragua Filler - Nicaraguan Binder - Coming Soon! Wrapper Type - Sun Grown -
Avo Syncro Nicaragua Fogata
Rated 5.00 out of 5$39.24 – $270.00I have to admit that the rarely made Short Torpedo size is one of my go to cigars. A year after the Synchro line arrived, Davidoff wrapped the unique blend of fillers and binder with a Habano 2000 wrapper ramping up its predecessors medium bodied taste to the medium-full bodied scale. If you enjoy the the first Synchro, the Fogata gives you more! Origin - Dominican Republic Filler - Dominican-Nicaraguan Binder - Mexican Wrapper Type - Habana 2000 -
Caldwell The T by AJ Fernandez
Rated 5.00 out of 5$47.00 – $216.00As you cruise our site you’ll come upon many small batch brands. As many of these newcomers came and went, Caldwell rose above the herd. What do you get when one of the country's most renowned boutique cigar makers teams up with one of the world's Master Blenders; AJ Fernandez? A 91 rated, medium bodied, box pressed masterpiece! With a signature blend of Nicaraguan fillers combined with a Nicaraguan Maduro wrapper this purebred yields an ample draw and even burn to an almost sweet finish.
