Fratello Bianco cigars have a highly complex nose due to the aroma produced by the mixture of the binder and wrapper.

Its flavor is elevated to a new level by the intricacy of the filler tobaccos, which come from three distinct nations. Three distinct flavors contribute to an incredible smoking experience: the robustness of Pennsylvania Broadleaf Ligero, the sweetness of Peruvian, and the spiciness of Nicaraguan.

The 1844 Añejo is featured alongside Upmann's other 1844 brands, with the peculiarity of using tobaccos aged for at least five years being this blend's calling card. Ergo, the Spanish word añejo, which means "old" or "mature," is what makes this cigar unique in its kind. 

Produced by hand in Honduras at the Flor de Copan factory with the support of Ernesto Kranwinkel from Tabacalera, USA, this smoke sports a three-country filler blend of Nicaraguan, Dominican, and Honduran tobaccos.

Tasting Notes:

The "Macanudo Estate Reserve Flint Knoll No. 2" is the second partnership between Macanudo and the Napa Valley vineyard Flint Knoll.

The cigar is made up of filler leaves from Brazil, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic, as well as a honey-colored Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper that is covered in a Connecticut Broadleaf binder. True to its name, the binder's tobacco was matured in French oak barrels that once housed Flint Knoll's 2019 Royal Appointment Cabernet Sauvignon.

This unique maturing method adds a new dimension to the cigar's already complex smoking characteristics, fortifying the cigar flavor profile with a ripe berry sweetness and strong oak tannin tastes.

Tasting Notes:

One would (understandably) think this cigar's name makes reference to the warm silky smooth taste of this cigar. However, it is actually in reference to a drink shared in the Honduran tobacco fields. This cigar has delectable notes of sweet tobacco, chocolate and cedar.

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.

A fantastic find from an extremely obscure boutique brand, the rich, the L'Anniversarie Maduro is the dark cousin to Foyle's Classic "Meteor Hammer." It's a medium-bodied Connecticut broadleaf maduro smoke that comes box-pressed filled with scoops of earthy expresso. To help impart a silky smooth finish, the wrapper on this stick is fermented under intense heat for 90 days until it releases its full potential. The result is a rich, dark wrapper that burns evenly with a razor-thin carbon ring. This uniquely forged wrapper dresses an Ecuadorian binder and a Nicaraguan/Dominican blend that forms an opulent mouthfeel and finish.

In order to create a new Macanudo line that featured tobacco aged in French oak barrels that previously held a single vineyard cabernet sauvignon, General Cigar Co. collaborated with Flint Knoll, a small winery in Napa, California.

While the wrapper is an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade varietal with a honey-hued color, this isn't a mild smoke by any means, for the filler tobaccos are dark and potent. Mata Fina from Brazil, Piloto Cubano and Olor from the Dominican Republic, as well as some Nicaraguan Jalapa leaf are all bound inside by a Connecticut Broadleaf binder. It is this leaf that rested inside those French oak barrels from Flint Knoll, resulting in a toasted tannin crispness, and a unique olfactory experience you have to smoke to believe.

Alec Bradley has been releasing their hugely popular Filthy Hooligan cigar line right before St. Patrick's Day every year since 2013.

The end product is a unique combination that promises to bring more pop and strength than blends from prior years. Alec Bradley says it tastes like a rich Irish stout.
