Raise a glass — or in this case, a cigar — to Ireland with the Erin Go Bragh Irish Whiskey Toro. Draped in a smooth, golden-brown Connecticut Shade wrapper and finished with a band in orange, white, and green, this cigar proudly wears its heritage on its sleeve. Its name means “Ireland Forever”, and true to form it’s gently infused with authentic Irish whiskey. Rather than overwhelming the palate, the infusion plays a subtle role, most...

Born from the ingenuity of Drew Estate’s factory rollers, Undercrown is a cigar with rebellion in its DNA. When Liga Privada #9 became too scarce for the rollers to smoke, they crafted their own secret blend — and what they created was too good to keep quiet. The Gran Toro struts a dark, oily San Andrés maduro wrapper over a hearty Connecticut Stalk Cut Habano binder, packed with rich Brazilian and Nicaraguan long-fillers. From...

You may know Xikar for their lifetime-guaranteed cigar tools, but over the past decade they’ve quietly made a splash with their own premium cigar line—and the HC Series Maduro is a standout. Its band, emblazoned with palm trees, nods to the El Corojo farm in Cuba—the birthplace of the tobacco style that inspired parts of this blend. Debuted in 2009, the HC Maduro Gordo wears a dark, silky Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper over a...

Medium in body, this torpedo delivers...

True to its name, it lights up with a wave of creamy, approachable...

The 10-Year Vintage Maduro Pirate is a shining example of that legacy. This medium to full-bodied torpedo is dressed in a dark, oily Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper that has been extensively aged for refinement. Beneath, a Honduran binder secures a balanced mix of long-fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua, delivering a smoke that is rich, complex, and endlessly satisfying. From the first draw, you’ll find billows of...

In the heart of Nicaragua, the Oliva family has built a legacy as one of the top growers and blenders in the world, and the Master Blends series is their crown jewel—limited, artisanal runs crafted from elite tobacco batches reserved for those who demand the best. The Master Blends III (MB3) is the third iteration in that tradition, distinguished by its rarity and unrelenting quality. This version comes clothed in a rich Connecticut...

The Partagás Y Nada Más Santiago Robusto is a fresh chapter in Partagás lore—launched by Forged Cigar Co. in 2025 and rolled at Tabacalera William Ventura in Santiago, Dominican Republic.

The blend features a Habano 2000 wrapper, Sumatra binder, and a complex filler mélange of Piloto Cubano, Corojo, Ecuadorian, and Broadleaf tobaccos. Reviews describe...
