Every year, the world’s finest cigar makers turn succulent tobacco leaf into fantastic stogies, sheathed in superb binders and wrappers. It is our pleasure to offer you a list of 10 of the world’s finest cigars.

1. Perdomo Estate Vintage 1991

The Perdomo Estate Vintage 1991 offers a vintage blend of fantastic tobacco. This medium to full-bodied smoke features complex and earthy flavors with hints of rich, spiced coffee on the super smooth finish. The Cuban seed leaves were grown in the rich earth of the Esteli Region of Nicaragua, then triple-fermented to produce a creamy, mouth-watering treat any cigar aficionado will appreciate. This premium stogie comes in two distinct wrappers, a silky Connecticut shade leaf, or a rich, dark sun grown Maduro. Match this vintage smoke to your favorite vintage wine or ale.

2. Oliva Serie G Maduro

The Oliva Serie G Maduro boasts a sweet and spicy Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper that makes this cigar as nice to look at as it is to smoke. The true bounty is found within, however. A pleasing blend of Nicaraguan Habano long fillers are tightly wrapped in a Habano binder, and the resulting flavors are earthy and robust, bringing to the palate a handful of roasted nuts, drizzled with a bit of dark chocolate. This medium-bodied cigar delivers pleasure in every puff.

3. MATASA 30th Anniversary Cigar

The MATASA 30th Anniversary Cigar features some of the richest tobaccos every produced. That is saying a lot, but this stogie delivers a stick that cigar lovers have been storing in their humidors since its introduction. The fertile Cibao Valley of the DR gave birth to the wrapper, while the full-bodied filler is a product of the best soils the DR, Honduras, and Nicaragua have to offer. This bold and smooth smoke delivers coffee bean flavor tinged with a peppery undertone.

4. Rocky Patel Sun Grown

The Rocky Patel Sun Grown is a winner, making numerous lists of top cigars. What pleases testers and tasters alike is the full-bodied composition from wrapper to filler. The Ecuadorian wrapper is grown as nature would have it, in full sunlight, which causes the leaf to produce rich oils giving it a stout, full-orbed flavor. The Nicaraguan binder is stuffed with Nicaraguan and Dominican tobaccos to produce a smooth, full-bodied cigar tasting of crisp, honey-roasted nuts, with a spicy finish.

5. Gurkha Titan

The Gurkha Titan lives up to its name in every respect. Everything about this quality smoke is pleasing, from the look and feel, to the aroma and taste. Perfectly aged tobaccos from the Dominican, Columbia, and Nicaragua are wrapped to superior effect in a vintage 1996 Costa Rican wrapper. The lit stick gives off pleasing plumes of smoke, while the first draw brings a blend of rich nuts, roasted coffee, and a hint of spice to your taste buds.

6. Padilla Miami

The Padilla Miami pays rich homage to the Cuban heritage of this great city. The glory days of Havana come to life in a cigar that is “cubanesque” from the traditional triple cap to the pig-tail twist. The full-bodied flavor is provided by Cuban-seed tobaccos that are pure Criollo. The binder and wrapper is richly textured Corojo, for a taste that fills the palate with roasted, savory flavors giving way to a creamy finish.

7. Montecristo White

The Montecristo White is the smoothest cigar on our list. Like the color, it goes with everything. This creamy treat features Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers aged to mellow perfection. The Connecticut shade wrapper, grown in Ecuador, gives depth and balance.

8. Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte

The Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte is a surprisingly good smoke. This stogie makes annual “best buy” lists because it packs the powerhouse flavor of Cuban seed tobaccos grown in the rich soil of Nicaragua and Honduras. Expect mouthfuls of spiced bread with a peppery tang finish, bountiful aromatic smoke, and a finish that keeps delivering long after you exhale.

9. Punch Gran Puro

The Punch Gran Puro makes our list because it epitomizes what a puro should be, and delivers outstanding taste in every stick. The filler, binder, and wrapper are 100% Honduran, an up-and-coming place for respected tobaccos. The result is a rich and nutty foundation, highlighted with reminders of freshly cut hay sprinkled with plenty of mouth-watering spice. This no-nonsense smoke will please the most discerning lovers of full-bodied cigars.

10. Perdomo Edicion de Silvio

Perdomo makes our list again, with the Perdomo Edicion de Silvio. This world-class cigar is the crown jewel of one of the world’s premier manufacturing families. Grown in Nicaragua, the tobacco in this stick is pure Cubano. Cuban Ligero seed leaf is blended in a hush-hush mix the family does not disclose. The cigar speaks for itself, however, in a hearty, medium-bodied smoke exuding rich leathery flavors, with undertones of caramel and milk chocolate. The finish is the perfect cup of rich java that lasts on the palate as you enjoy one of six tasty vitolas.
