We recommend the cigars in this sampler to those looking for the traditional full flavor Cuban cigar taste.

Sample the full ine of Montecristo White, a mild cigar with lots of Montecristo flavor. The Ecuador Connecticut Shade wrapper is velvet smooth and balances the stronger Nicaraguan binder and the blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan long fillers. A real treat!

A pleasant, well-aged smoke, the binder and filler are robust Nicaraguan tobaccos aged for 4 years and the wrapper is a dark Ecuador Connecticut shade leaf. The cigar looks a lot stronger than it really is, as the aged blend has a distinctive mellowness. You will find this cigar to be very satisfying and consistent in its quality. Rated 9.0 (Excellent) by Smoke Magazine in 2008.

If you like smooth cigars with a little punch, the Punch cigars are just what you're looking for. This cigar is medium to full bodied but never overpowering. Rated 91 by Cigar Aficionado.

These highly rated Romeo y Julieta cigars are always a great choice for medium bodied cigar lovers who are looking for a flavorful cigar with a perfect burn.

The Tabak Especial Dulce cigars are the tobacco equivalent of a Cafe Au Lait...it's blend of coffee flavor infused filler tobaccos are wrapped in a delicate Connecticut Shade wrapper that mellows out the blend. A perfect cigar when you crave something sweet.

This is a selection of cigars produced by the Perdomo family in Nicaragua. These cigars are the all exceptional in value and taste. Highly recommended.
