Sampler Spotlight

Neptune’s mild cigar sampler brings together a selection of approachable blends perfect for a gentler smoke. Mild doesn’t mean boring, these cigars can be creamy, nutty, sweet, delicately spiced, and so much more, depending on how the tobacco is cultivated, aged, and blended. By using lower priming leaves, carefully controlling sun exposure, and curing with patience, blenders and growers highlight smoothness without losing character, offering a wide range of experiences suited for any palate. Like them mild but don't know what to pick next? Let us help, try these!
