This amazing medium to full-bodied cigar is deliciously complex. No doubt the Matacapan Mexican binder and the USA grown Pennsylvania Broadleaf ligero filler combined with Vintage Nicaraguan leaves is a key contributor. As with all Dunbarton sticks, this one is perfected made and gives off a wonderful aroma. The bonus here are the tasting notes, and there are many. Black cherry, cinnamon, red licorice, dark coffee and of course…just enough spices. Enjoy this truly great cigar!

What is it about Warped Futuro? As the story goes, Eduardo Fernandez created Fernandez Aganorsa farms in 1998 to produce the finest cigar tobacco in the world along with the most talented growers from Cuba. Warped Futuro came to market in 2016 as a collaboration of Eduardo and Warp’s young founder. This edition’s intricate blend of 1998 Criollo and 1999 Corojo long leaf fillers encased in a 1999 Corojo wrapper represents Aganorsa rarest and finest vintage tobacco. The rarely applied tri-seamed cap is another testament to the attention paid in making this spicy and creamy medium to full bodied jewel.

Warped La Hacienda and La Hacienda First Growth are two very popular blends from this amazing cigar maker.
First off, La Hacienda is a Nicaraguan puro featuring a Corojo wrapper. This blend comes in two sizes – Superiores (a 5 5/8 x 46 Corona Gorda) and a Gran Robusto (5 1/2 x 52). Making this cigar such a hit is its appeal to such a wide range of smokers. Starting off on a mild note then soon evolving into a smooth, balanced and slightly sweet medium bodied smoking experience. Cigar Coop is quite impressed with the La Hacienda line rating it a respectable 90.
Moving on to the First Growth blend, everything amps up. Here, the aged vintage blend of Nicaraguan leaves adds more flavor, body and strength across the board. For the record, with a Cigar Dojo score of 90 , Cigar Coop at 91 and the Cigar Authority with a 92……You know its a winner as well.
Either one you choose is a top pick for sure!

No 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!

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! One of the keys to Rocky’s success over the years is the number of choices he continues to create for all of us to enjoy.
This 90 rated edition is very special to me. Erik Nording has been one of world’s master pipe makers for decades. He actually visited my store in the late 90’s to meet with all my pipe smoking customers. What many people don’t know is that Erik is a huge cigar guy as well. As luck would have it, he and Rocky got together in 2011. This collaboration allowed Erik to create his own signature stick under Rocky’s banner. This medium-full bodied oily cigar is cool burning and smooth. It’s old school pig tailed cap gives you a hint about the complex, subtle tastes you’ll enjoy encompassing tiny bits of sweetness, spice, coffee and buttered toast.

When 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.

Oliva launched this Cafe’ Series in 2015 consisting of three distinctly unique flavors: Espresso, Cappuccino and Macchiato.
While I consider myself a purist, I absolutely love each of these sticks! Every one is a top quality, well made cigar with vintage tobaccos in the Oliva tradition available in a huge array of sizes. The flavor infusions are subtle but defined. The aroma is delicious and wonderful in each edition. Pick your favorite brew listing and grab a five pack of 4×38’s for a taste.

Ferio Tego Metropolitan Selection Habano is one of a collection of 5 different blends. And this one is considered the best of the bunch.
With attention to detail, the dark Habano wrapper encases selected Nicaraguan longleaf fillers and binder. When this Nicaraguan puro edition was launched in 2017, it got serious notice as the Gordo size garnered a 91 rating. Venturing out of the mild to mellow flavor zone, this cigar goes directly into the solid medium plus to full body realm. What catches everyone by surprise is that the Metropolitan Selection Habano possesses a signature Cuban style thats also tempered with smoothness. The bonus is a perfect draw giving way to a huge volume of aromatic smoke as well.
Just so you know, these cigars are in and out of stock quickly. Stay connected with us to see when more come in.
