It makes sense that a legendary brand creates something new for enthusiasts who prefer fuller-bodied blends like you and me. Enter 5 Vegas Nicaragua: made by AJ Fernandez in Estelí, this premium packs a balanced punch of spice, coffee bean, cedar, and a hint of sweetness. A cigar that smokes as good as it looks.

This medium to full-bodied cigar uses tobaccos from four different regions. The Nicaraguan, Dominican, and Honduran fillers , along with an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper leads to notes of spicy sweetness, along with hints of oak, raisin, and cinnamon. This cigar delivers the punch you'd expect while being beautifully balanced. One for the books!

This Pennsylvania Broadleaf maduro-wrapped follow-up to the original release is the perfect addition to my humidor. Its Sumatran binder combined with Dominican long-fillers ensures a consistent complexity that is thoroughly satisfying from head to foot, presenting a savory flavor profile complemented with a subtle, natural sweetness.

This '90' rated beauty might be a Nicaraguan puro but its soul is Cuban. With notes of cedar, coffee, and a bit of spice, Plasencia Alma Del Campo will definitely find a home in your humidor. With a medium-bodied profile, pair this premium with a peaty Scotch like Laphroaig on a chilly evening.
