The Cuesta-Rey Centro Fino Pyramid No. 9 is a fantastic Dominican cigar made under the Newman and Fuente family legacies. Founded in 1884, Cuesta-Rey earns its laurels time and time again. This year, it was featured as #4 cigar in the world! The Centro Fino, a humidor staple since the 1990’s, stands the test of time with consistency and quality. Featuring an Ecuadorian Sungrown wrapper with Dominican binder and filler tobaccos, it delivers smooth notes of cedar, toasted nuts, light spice, and natural sweetness.
Another tested and proven cigar brand is Ashton: the official cigars of the mid-Atlantic. Cigar smokers from Pennsylvania and New Jersey know well the quality of Ashton, especially the La Aroma de Cuba brand. Highlighting aged Nicaraguan and Ecuadorian tobacco from the Oliva Tobacco Co., La Aroma de Cuba features a wide range of blends and flavor profiles. Produced at the My Father Cigars factory in Nicaragua, La Aroma de Cuba Robusto uses a dark Ecuadorian-grown Nicaraguan wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and filler. Expect bold notes of cocoa, espresso, earth, and pepper.
Trinidad Espíritu Series 3 Belicoso
Blended by AJ Fernandez in Estelí, Nicaragua, this cigar features a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over Nicaraguan tobaccos. According to many cigar bloggers and review websites, the Trinidad Espiritu is an exceptional cigar and one of the best cigars in the world. In recent years, crises and economics have increased the price of Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. Mexican wrapper, on the other hand, delivers a bold and earthy flavor without an inordinate price tag. It delivers rich flavors of dark chocolate, leather, spice, and roasted coffee.
Rocky Patel is a brand that has slowly and steadily increased its quality and built up its consumer base. A sleeping giant, Rocky Patel exploded onto the markets in the last few years with hit after hit. Joining the Disciple and the ALR, the Rocky Patel Emerald is a great stick and monument to the tenacity of the brand’s owner. The Rocky Patel Emerald Robusto showcases an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and filler. It offers a refined profile of sweet cream, cedar, baking spice, and roasted nuts.
Aging Room Quattro Nicaragua Concerto Impromptu
Despite challenges faced with supply and factory fires in 2025, AJ Fernandez persisted throughout the year with great releases from its factory. Demand for AJ Fernandez cigars has never been higher. Aging Room Quattro is one of those AJ Fernandez blends that truly is as good as the reviews claim. Blended by Rafael Nodal and produced at Tabacalera Fernandez, this all-Nicaraguan cigar delivers espresso, dark chocolate, black pepper, and earth with a long finish.
