A Premium Tribute

This edition of Expert Picks: A Premium Tribute not only gives a nod to the variety of handmade cigars—some of which stand the test of time, and those who are newer to the scene, but still leaves quite the impression on both enthusiasts and aficionados alike—but also to those we call "dad." We're celebrating it all here with premiums from iconic brands such as Perdomo, AVO, Cohiba, and more—so go ahead, and toast to some excellent blends!

As the first Cohiba with roots in Nicaragua, this '91' rated blend is worth toasting to again and again! Constructed with elegant complexity, this premium produces ample amounts of smoke and releases hearty flavors of leather, cedar, and pepper on the palate—all thanks to its Nicaraguan binder, long-fillers, and Honduran Jamastran Colorado Oscuro wrapper.
The most premium blend in the AVO family, XO hails from Davidoff's famed Tabadom Factory. A complex array of cream, wood, nuts, and dried fruit subtly unfold on the palate thanks to its five-country tobacco blend. This medium-bodied cigar has a spicy finish, and I enjoy my AVO XO alongside a sturdy Rye served neat.
Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne is definitely worth a spot in your humidor. Not a wimpy Connecticut, this mellow to medium-bodied smoke has an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper and Cuban-seed Nicaraguan binder and filler, giving it a rich, smooth smoke with notes of cream, oak, and cedar. The perfect cocktail for this cigar is a Kentucky Mule.
Buffalo Trace begins with a mix of Nicaraguan long-fillers and barrel-aged Piloto Cubano tobaccos nestled beneath a Brazilian Arapiraca binder, all finished off with a gorgeous Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper. Potent, yet incredibly balanced, this beauty literally bursts at the seams with flavors of leather, cedar, spice, vanilla, and a hint of nuttiness. You've got to try this one!
'91' rated by Cigar Aficionado, Diesel Whiskey Row Sherry Cask lives up to all its accolades. Much of this blend's unique flavor originates from the Brazilian Arapiraca binder, which has been aged in barrels previously containing the finest Sherry wines. The result is a full-flavored sensation that bursts with notes of fruit, cocoa, and licorice!
