Cacique (pronounced "ka-seek") enjoys a loyal following, yet isn’t widely known, despite a 90 rating by Cigar Aficionados Insider and high praise from the cigar smoking public. Made by cigar master Pedro Martin, this cigar is a real diamond in the rough.
Cacique is handmade in the Dominican Republic, using a long-filler blend of Nicaraguan Ligero and Dominican Seco leaves, Havana seed binder, and a very attractive Connecticut Shade wrapper. This combination lends the cigar a full flavor, yet remains mild in strength. It is very well-constructed and extensively aged.
A cigar with a pleasant, herbal character and a mild-to-medium body. There are good spicy elements on the palate - a well-made cigar with an oily wrapper. It has a spicy core of flavors.

The Cusano Selection is a tremendous value that I´ve been smoking for years. It´s actually made by Hendrik Kelner - Davidoff´s cigar guy - in the Dominican Republic, and I tell you it´s a steal. But don´t take my word for it.
Rolled with a beautiful shade grown Rosado wrapper - a gorgeous oily leaf - and long-filler from the Dominican Republic. Plus the Connecticut binder is almost the same quality as many wrapper leaves - it´s like smoking a cigar with 2 wrappers! Highly praised by the cigar critics too, SMOKE magazine says:
"Very reminiscent of a Cuban cigar… Lots of flavorful smoke up front with excellent character and a big finish. The Selection, however, is all that and a little more...the excellent construction and big, big taste without the big, big bite, may force you outdoors while you bum one, but ahhh, what a day you'd be having"

Excalibur cigars are handmade in Honduras and are the choicest cigars picked from the famous Hoyo de Monterrey line of fine cigars. They are h
and-rolled by the same makers as Hoyo De Monterrey. Hoyo De Monterrey Excalibur is made using the top 10% of the factory’s tobacco from Honduras and Nicaragua. Hoyos are considered to be one of the finest cigars on the market. They are made with Nicaraguan, Honduran, and Cuban seed Dominican filler and Connecticut binder.
Wrapped in beautiful Connecticut Shade wrappers, which gives each and every Excalibur cigar a robust, but exquisitely smooth taste.
This full-flavored brand is dubbed the "espresso of cigars" because of its famously rich, strong, and creamy smoke.
Perfect draw, burns straight as a ruler, stays firm, lovely aroma, nice with a coffee or a beer, an honest, good cigar.

Jose Llopis was a high-priced boom cigar from the mid-90s.
It is a handmade cigar from the Republic of Panama.
Our panel members were genuinely surprised at how mild, smooth and pleasant this monster-sized pyramid is. It’s rolled with a Dominican binder and a complex long-filler blend of Dominican, Panamanian, and Honduran leaves, but the most striking thing is the gorgeous Connecticut shade wrapper. The wrapper leaf appears flawless, with a silky smooth feel. The cigar has been aged for over 4 years, and the cellophane shows evidence of that - some even have that nice, slight yellowing. Overall, this ones a good, mild surprise, and the draw is smooth and easy.

This box is gorgeous. Each individually packaged in beautiful solid cedar tubes and packed 10 cigars per box with a clear top. Although we had to remove them from these tubes so that we could ship them to you. The cedar tubes were so big, we couldn’t fit them in the shipping tubes! These Churchills are rolled in Nicaragua and offer a spicy, medium to full-bodied taste. Ecuadorian-grown, Sumatra-seed wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and interesting filler combination consisting of Dominican, Honduran, and Nicaraguan long leaves.
