PipesandCigars.com Releases Top 10 Cigars of 2011 Sampler

February 3, 2012 Posted by


Albany, NY (PRWEB) January 18, 2012

PipesandCigars.com has been bringing smokers all over the world the best cigars on the market for over 17 years. Cigar Aficionado Magazine is the cigar industry’s leading authority, providing cigar lovers with ratings and rankings of cigars from all over the world as well as commentary surrounding the entire cigar lifestyle. Each year the magazine produces a list of the 25 best cigars of the year, and the list is eagerly awaited by smokers everywhere. The full list was revealed on January 9, 2012, and to coincide with the release, PipesandCigars.com has assembled a new item which will allow customers to sample 10 of the cigars selected to the list.

“The release of Cigar Aficionado’s Top 25 list is always an exciting time for our industry,” said Travis Lord, Marketing Director of PipesandCigars.com. “Being selected to this exclusive list is quite an honor for each of the cigars. There is an enormous amount of smoking experience and expertise that goes into narrowing down the thousands of premium cigars to a list of the 25 best. However, as is to be expected, they often pick cigars that are expensive and/or very rare. What I wanted to do was ensure that customers could sample the selected cigars without having to make an expensive full-box purchase, and also ensure that they have access to cigars that aren’t always available online or at their local cigar shop.”

Due to the limited availability of some cigars on the list, PipesandCigars.com is only making 50 sample packs available for the initial offering. However, the company expects to have the item consistently in stock after the increased demand caused by the list release subsides. Since the Cigar Aficionado Top 25 list also features Cuban cigars that are illegal in the United States and some cigars that are currently out of stock from the manufacturers, PipesandCigars used the top 10 available cigars selected to comprise this unique sampler pack item. It includes the #1 ranked Alec Bradley Prensado Churchill as well as selections from La Aroma de Cuba, Illusione, Ashton, Rocky Patel, Arturo Fuente, and many more prestigious cigars. The 10-pack carries an MSRP value of $ 110.00, however PipesandCigars.com will be offering them at the discounted sale price of $ 89.95.

About PipesandCigars.com: PipesandCigars.com is an industry-leading online tobacconist dedicated to bringing customers the widest selection of cigars, pipes, pipe tobacco and tobacco accessories.

Cuban Cigars ? The World of Cigars

January 29, 2012 Posted by

If you are interested in learning about the world of cigars, then you probably have a taste for the finer things in life. The truth of the matter is that there is a lot to learn about cigars. In many ways, cigars share more with wine than they do with cigarettes, which also use tobacco. The truth about cigars is that there are different countries they come from, which determine the quality, and different ways to store the cigars. In other words, cigars are like wine in that collectors and aficionados will be very particular about the kinds of cigars they smoke and how they are kept, as well as where the cigars are from.

As you can imagine, cigars can be very expensive, especially the Cuban cigars. This means that if you are interested in exploring the world of cigars, you will want to know how to get the best deals on the finest items.

Before we go any further, we should talk about Cuban cigars.

Many people believe that these kinds of cigars are illegal in the U.S. This is both true and false. While a company cannot begin distributing these cigars en masse to American cigar smokers, many people find ways to obtain these cigars because the regulations have been loosened since the early sixties.

As a matter of fact, these cigars are becoming more and more popular among American smokers. The truth is that these cigars from Cuba are considered to be the best cigars in the world.

So what makes Cuban cigars the best in the world? There are many factors that go into making a cigar great. To begin with, the kind of tobacco is essential. You want to make sure that you are getting only the highest quality of tobacco. There is something about Cuban tobacco that makes it superior to all others.

Also, you want to consider the way the cigar is rolled.

You will also want to consider the sensual aspects, such as smell and taste. These are all elements that go into judging the quality of cigars.

If you are ready to get your hands on Cuban cigars, you will want to be careful. The fact is that cigars from Cuba are incredibly expensive, which is to be expensive since they are of the highest quality and still relatively rare in the United States.

The cigars are best when purchased online, this way you can get the best deals and actually have the cigars you have ordered delivered directly to your home.

If you’re interested in reading more about the aficionado lifestyle associated with Cuban cigars and learn everything you ever wanted to know about cigars, then I highly recommend you visit the website below. It’s been a great source of information, advice and irresistible cigar specials to me for the past 10 years.

Cuban Cigars Best Cigars in Existence

January 21, 2012 Posted by

Cuba, a little but mesmerizing island located close to Coast of Florida, is well known for cigars, women and rum. Cuban cigar is popular worldwide for its special fragrance and superior quality. They are the best in the world and have become a symbol of style. They are produced under the watchful control of the Government to maintain quality. The wrappers, tobacco and fillers used in cigars are produced in Cuba and these cigars are hand rolled. Torcedores, the experts in the field of hand rolling, perform this task. Its sale in United States is illegal to an extent.

It is so famous in the world that everyone is familiar with its name. When cigar smokers think of cigars, most cannot help but picture fine Cuban cigar in their head. It is most captivating and exclusive all over the world. It is not easily available and this has increased its popularity.

Their export and import is facilitated by Solo to meet the growing demand of people who love cigars. Many brands are available but Especiales and Montecristos are the most famous names. They are considered a bit more expensive cigars but the quality and prestige associated with smoking the best cigars usually outweighs the extra hit to ones wallet.

Although there is no law that bans sale and distribution of Cuban cigars in United States, it is still considered illegal. The ban has since been amended. One can now bring two boxes of cigars for personal use while returning from Cuba. Many night clubs and bars have been selling these for a long time without much difficulty. They are in high demand all across the US as the cigar of choice for many casual smokers as well as serious regular cigar smokers.

You would be well aware that due to popularity and great demand of Cuban cigars a large variety of fake cigars are being manufactured and sold in black. Only a knowledgeable cigar smoker would be able to recognize fake cigars, as they are not attractive to look at and are of inferior quality. Efforts are being made to make these fake cigars so attractive and appealing that it may become difficult to differentiate between the two.

In order to ensure that you get genuine cigars, these Cuban cigars must be procured from trustworthy dealers that have good reviews. Being a true cigar lover if you want to taste the best cigar in the world, you should not get unduly perturbed about the legality of sale and purchase of these items and its after effects. You need not worry unnecessarily about it as certain amount of risk has to be taken for fulfillment of your desires and hobbies. Furthermore, the actual illegality is merely considered a formality these days. It may be of interest to you that many politicians and famous film personalities have been smoking Cuban cigars as a status symbol without any hesitation. If you really want to try the best of the best in terms of cigars then you would do well to try a fine Cuban cigar.

I have been involved in the cigar industry for over 20 years and I have written extensive guides on such products as the Travel Humidor, and the Palio Cutter. Also, see some of my latest guides on how to choose a Cigar Holder

Boutique Premium Cigars and What Makes Them Special

January 9, 2012 Posted by

Article by Don Kiki

Boutique Premium Cigars are finally going mainstream and have become some of the most sought after premium cigars by those that know great smokes. But what are they? How do they differ from other premium cigars? What makes them so special is that they are totally handmade in small batches, with attention to each and every detail. Unlike regular mass-produced cigars, boutique premium cigars go through an extensive labor-intensive process. In addition, boutique brands make less than 1.5 million cigars yearly. Since the tobacco used is only available in limited quantities, it is difficult for a boutique cigar maker to produce more than that. The low quantity produced tends to increase the price of the cigars.

To make boutique cigars, the bales of tobacco are brought into the rolling factory and placed in a temperature and humidity controlled area. The tobacco is unpacked on an as needed basis and classified by the color, size and texture of the fully fermented and aged leaf. After carefully selecting the cured leaves, they are transferred and organized in the blending room based on the cigars to be made and their blend. The process requires precision and can only be performed by experienced tobacco handlers.

The Master Cigar blender prepares the tobacco leaves for the Roller and Master Roller teams. The teams work together as a pair to hand make the cigars. The Blender normally mixes enough tobacco for the daily production of the Roller and Master Roller pair. The Rollers are highly trained and only reach the Master level after many years of on-the-job training. First the Roller bunches the tobacco leaves and forms the cigars. It is done by taking a measured handful of leaves for the filler and then forming it into the desired shape. A binder leaf is wrapped around the filler tobacco to hold it together. The partially finished cigars are pressed in a wooden mold. The press is turned by hand until the Roller feels that there is enough pressure on the tobacco leaves to properly form the cigars into perfect, predetermined shapes. After the press is released, each cigar is removed from the mold by hand and passed on to the Master Roller.

The Master Roller, who is the most experienced member of the pair, carefully finishes the forming of the cigar and delicately puts on the wrapper leaf. Both hands are used in this process, a chaveta (hand cutter for tobacco leaves), and an all natural tree sap glue. The Master Roller puts on the head of the cigar and looks it over for any possible flaw or imperfection. After adding the finishing touches and details, it is now ready for the aging process. This process requires patience and time.

The cigars are grouped in bundles of 50 and wrapped in absorbent paper in preparation to be aged. Usually cigars are wrapped in newspapers or in special coated paper that could also be used for cigar bundles. The ability to breath is what determines the paper that will be used.

The cigar bundles are then classified by types of cigars, the dates that they were made, the tobacco blend of the cigars, and the code identifying the Roller and Master Roller who made them. These marked bundles are carefully placed in the aging room. The aging room is temperature and humidity controlled to make sure that the different types of tobacco in the cigars marry perfectly. The marrying process is when all the different tobacco leaves blend with each other, passing their oils from one to another.

Cigars can age for years. Normally 90 days is sufficient for the tobacco in the cigar to be fully married, but leaving them longer in the aging room improves the taste. Some are aged for over two years in an effort to bring their taste to the perfect level. After extensive aging they are moved to the packing room. The packing room is located close to the aging room, and is also temperature and humidity controlled.

Packing boxes with cigars requires a team effort. The first step is to place a label on each and every cigar. The label is placed on the top quarter of the cigars. An all-natural tree sap glue is used to paste the labels’ ends together around the cigar. Careful attention and concentration by the labeler keeps the cigar’s delicate wrapper from sticking to the label. A mistake can damage the wrapper so training is a must. Some train for up to three months before they actually place their first label.

After the labeling, the cigar is individually placed in a cellophane tube. This protects the delicate wrapper as it is transported to the cigar store, and ultimately to the smoker. After the cellophane wrapper is placed each cigar is hand packed, one by one, into cedar wood cigar boxes. The box is specially made to enhance the cigar’s aging process and the cedar wood enhances the cigar’s taste.

The boxes are then wrapped in cellophane and sealed to protect the cigars from the elements during their long journey to the smoker. Each box is inspected and packaged in master cartons.

The boutique premium cigar’s journey from tobacco seed to cigar is long and very labor intensive. After you’ve tasted the unique flavors, and smelled their delightful aroma, you too will agree that it was well worth the effort.

Don Kiki is a Cuban born cigar maker. He is recognized in the cigar industry as a master cigar maker who specilizes in Boutique Premium cigars. His cigars are distributed worldwide through Cuban Crafters Cigars. Don Kiki was the first to use “Criollo” tobacco and has developed some of the world’s highest rated cigars. He resides in his tobacco farm in Nicaragua and has a home in South Miami Beach.

What’s The Difference Between Box Pressed Cigars And Round Cigars?

January 4, 2012 Posted by

Are you wondering what the difference is between those square looking box pressed cigars and round cigars? If you are new to the world of cigars then there is certainly plenty to learn and enjoy about them.

Box-pressed cigars originated in Cuba. They were tightly packaged into cigar boxes because of shipping circumstances. The traditional cigars inside were pressed so tightly that eventually they succumbed to the shape of the box. These square-shaped cigars have been synonymous with a higher quality smoke ever since, as in the old days, these cigars had greater flavor and a longer burning time. They also had superior scents than the average round cigar. These cigars proved to be so delightful, that manufacturers started making these cigars on purpose.

Round cigars are more popular, mostly because of the traditional cigar shape. Many cigar lovers can’t quite accept the square shape and the way it feels on their lips. Others simply prefer the flavor of a round cigar over a square-shaped cigar. If the shape of the cigar and the feel of it don’t matter to you, then it’s best to make up your own mind by sampling both types of cigars. Buy individual cigars before buying an entire box.

A cigar humidor is the container that stores yours cigars and accessories. This box is capable of keeping your tobacco products at a specific humidity level. Interestingly, the use of a humidor has actually made some box shaped cigars return to a traditional round shape. Keep this in mind, if you love the taste of a box-shaped cigar, but can’t quite fit your mind (or your mouth) around it. Bear in mind that if this strategy is to work, a long resting period will be required.

If you are looking for top brands then check out some of these names. For boxed cigars you can’t go wrong with Aspira, Padron Anniversary and Sancho Panza cigars. At the same time, you have to be careful when buying cigars from suspicious sources. Rounded cigars of cheap quality may very well be packaged as premium “box pressed” cigars, when they are only physically manipulated to resemble them. Some popular round shaped cigars include CAO Gold, Romeo Y Julieta and Camacho Corojo. The only way to know for sure is to try both types of cigars and figure out which one is most appealing to you. There’s no question that both box-pressed cigars and round cigars have their following.
