Tasting Notes:

The Heritage line by AVO gives recognition and celebrates all the hands that contribute to the manufacturing of cigars. This top rated cigar from AVO is one of the boldest cigars they make. Packed with Cuban-Seed  Dominican filler, this toasty and creamy cigar is rich and rewarding. A superb cigar for any occasion. 

The Rocky Patel Emerald stands out as the first box-pressed cigar from the industry icon that has been designed to be on the lighter side of medium-bodied.

Crafted with precision, the Emerald features an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper complemented by dual binders—one from Nicaragua and another from Mexico. The filler predominantly consists of Nicaraguan tobacco, with the addition of a single leaf from the Jamastran Valley in Honduras, enhancing its complexity. This combination results in a truly medium-bodied cigar, offering a harmonious balance of flavors.

Genesis is a small-batch super-premium, meticulously hand-crafted by Ramon Bueso in Honduras. Who is Ramon Bueso? Trust me when I tell you he isn’t some ho-hum street corner vendor. Quite the opposite, in fact, Ramon has been an integral player in the cigar industry for nearly 4 decades. Since 1977, Ramon has been honing his mastery of cigars and has perfected every facet of cigar production. From grower to roller to master-blender to factory supervisor. Early in his career, Ramon Bueso was vital in catapulting the legendary Villazon factory to new heights, working alongside cigar legends Frank Llaneza and Estelo Padron, and producing some of the world’s biggest and most successful blends in the process. Blends you enjoy early and often, from the likes of Hoyo de Monterrey, Excalibur, Punch, and so much more.

Truth is, Ramon’s mind and hands have created more brands and blends than one can accurately count, let alone imagine. But this....this is by far his most irresistible creation yet. His raison d’etre, if you will. Genesis began as ‘The Project,’ a limited production, local favorite exclusive to the Honduran market, mostly used for gifts and events. Now available on a grander scale, the Genesis is ready to make its mark. The lush, well-aged tobaccos used to craft Genesis deliver a scrumptious and complex medium to full-bodied bouquet. An exceedingly complex core of vintage long-fillers from Nicaragua and Honduras, including select ligeros, visos, and secos. This complex recipe is expertly blended, secured inside a feisty Jamastran binder, then cloaked by a dark and inviting, triple-fermented Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper boasting gorgeous oils. From the very first puff, it’s clear this cigar is something special. Each Genesis wastes no time asserting its distinct array of eventful profile. Thick and creamy flavor coats the palate, dusting the taste buds with hearty notes of espresso, roasted nuts, earth, and nutmeg. The finish is long and savory, offering a unique spicy-sweetness after each puff. Complex, yet highly refined and skillfully balanced, Genesis is a mere peak into the window of Ramon Bueso’s extraordinary talents. Genesis The Project....it’s just the beginning.

Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 is a magnificent blend composed by lengthy fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua that have been aged for seven years.

This medium-bodied stick wrapped in a silky, smooth Connecticut USA wrapper provides pleasant, toasty, and buttery tones that get better with each draw. From the start to the end, the Vintage 1999 delights the palette with complex notes of cedar, earth, and a light amount of spice.

In all Rocky Patel cigars, Rocky's vision and pursuit for excellence are skillfully embodied, and the Vintage 1999 is not the exception. This cigar is a fantastic option for both beginner and experienced smokers thanks to its smooth and creamy nature.

Tasting Notes:

This cigar pays homage to the brand's patriarch Gilberto Oliva. With hearty notes of earth and spice throughout, this cigar is balanced beautifully to end with an elegant chocolatey finish. 

Tasting Notes:

This dark cigar is pleasantly complex, hitting notes of cocoa, pepper, roasted nuts, and cashews. The uncommon box-pressed oily cigar will surely be a fan favorite.

This cigar is appropriately named and premium in a clever way. Considering there are only 1,000 boxes made annually, the Limitada is all about exclusivity. This Limited Edition cigar is outstanding, boasting earthy and peppery aromas, and it has the body of great tobacco. When craftsmanship and quality are combined, the result is a national treasure that is only seen rarely during prime time.

Tasting Notes:

 This cigar marks a change of pace for AJ Fernandez, who is mainly known for his complex medium to full cigars. Providing a creamy smooth cigar, notes of tree nuts and wood with a subtle buttery and fruity finish, this cigar can be enjoyed any time of day.

The strong blend of Esteban Carreras Cashmere Cigars has an Ecuadorian Connecticut shade wrapper and produces a medium-to-full-bodied smoke. Don't let the cigar's wrapper fool you; the blend's all-Nicaraguan core offers an adequate amount of power along with rich notes of cedar, leather, and spice that end in a smooth, fragrant finish not commonly found on Connecticut seed wrappers. Therefore, this is guaranteed to be exactly up your alley if you enjoy the flavor profile of Connecticut Shade but want a cigar with a fair bit of body. 

West Tampa Tobacco offers a premium cigar that is called the Black Toro. This handmade cigar is renowned for its robust flavor profile and large Toro shape.

The box and the band ask to be picked up. Its amazing flavor comes from the Dark Habano wrapper. Perfectly matured, West Tampa Black has plenty of taste and depth. This cigar, filled with famous Esteli Ligero and Condega Viso, has a body that will appeal to both beginners and experienced smokers.

Tasting Notes:

In this collaboration between Warped Cigars and Casa Fernandez, one can expect subtle but balanced notes of tree nuts, cedar, and sweet cream. 

Tasting Notes:

This oily Connecticut Broadleaf maduro mellows out the more complex Nicaraguan Habano binder and all Nicaraguan filler, lending itself to a very enjoyable medium-strength smoke. One could expect to taste notes of toasted oak, loamy earthiness, dried nuts, baking spice, and cedar throughout.
