Still reigns supreme
This is by FAR the best Cuban brand I’ve experienced. Largely due to consistency. I’ve had my share of Cohibas, Montes, Partagas, RyJ, etc but nothing compares to the smoke output and flavor profile of a Bolivar! Darn near a perfect smoke every time with a smooth consistent burn nearly everytime
Flavorful
Slightly tight draw and needs frequent correction. However the aroma and taste makes up for the not so construction. I enjoyed the cigar and will buy again.

It’s hard to find a short cigar that delivers plenty of richness and flavors, even in Cuba. However, the 5 by 42 Bolivar Petit Corona has nearly always delivered just that, with the exception of a bland period from about 1998 to 2002. Don’t buy the product of those years. Current production is a whole different story. We prefer the cigars in cedar cabinets of 50, but those that come in standard paper boxes of 25 are also excellent. Blast one of these babies with your morning java and you’ll understand the meaning of the phrase “size doesn’t matter,” especially with a good Habano.

The Siglo line of Cohiba was launched in 1992, but only recently, with the introduction of the Siglo VI in 2004, did the brand really become popular. The Siglo II has always been a serious smoke, but never one that blew off the shelves. We think that the market might have it wrong. The hearty cigar, which resembles the old Davidoff Chateau Margaux, measures 5 inches by 42 ring gauge. It always delivers lots of spicy, creamy character and a bright freshness from the specially processed filler tobacco. The Cubans say that some of the tobacco in the blend goes through a third fermentation, which provides the flavor and the finesse of Cohiba. The Siglo II is a consistently outstanding cigar.

An amazing experience
I have had the pleasure of purchasing from CCG multiple times and I’m very pleased all the way around. I understand CCG can’t control shipping, which is what it is. But if you’re like me, Im usually like a kid waiting for Christmas, so weeks feel like years once your order ships! However, once in hand and after some time in my humidor, with my favorite drink in hand, my cigar ritual begins. The flavors, the smells, it’s an experience that I almost can’t put into words. It’s almost out of body relaxation. The Cohiba Siglo II has become one of my favorites, and I feel like this stick is well balanced for anyone. So, whip out your credit card and purchase a box, you won’t be the least bit disappointed. For all the great experiences, a special “thanks” to CCG for making that happen! You’re Cubans are Legit!!

If there was one cigar that stole the headlines this past year, it’s this one. The Cohiba 55 Aniversario Edición Limitada 2021 got the world’s attention not just because it’s a Cohiba, and not because it celebrates the brand’s 55th anniversary. It turned heads because of the exorbitant price tag—$300 per cigar. The Cohiba came a bit late and wasn’t released until 2022, first in Lebanon and Cyprus and then later in Havana with lavish launch parties. It wasn’t all hype, however, as this turned out to be the tastiest Cohiba we smoked all year. The cigar scored well, and would have appeared higher on the list had it not been for its restrictive price and limited availability.

Cuba has been cultivating an aura of mystique and luxury around Cohiba that was first set aglow in the 1960s when the brand was only available as a diplomatic gift from Fidel Castro himself. It’s now perhaps the most recognizable cigar brand in the world—even those who don’t smoke cigars know what a Cohiba is—and has been commercially available since the 1980s. According to Habanos S.A., which owns and distributes all Cuban cigars globally, Cohiba is special for two primary reasons. Firstly, the tobacco comes from Cuba’s top five farms, dubbed “the selection of the selection.” Secondly, some of the filler is put through an additional fermentation in barrels, a step that most other Cuban tobacco does not undergo.
Released in 2024, Ambar (box date: March 2025) is one of the newest Cohibas to come out of Cuba and it stunned us with its body, balance and resonance. The unique 53 ring gauge ended up being a very effective thickness to communicate all that the Cohiba blend has to offer: a bold core of oak and caramel surrounded by creamy, precise almond notes and an elegant fruit finish. The pigtail cap is a nod to the Lancero, the very first cigar to ever bear the Cohiba name.

I’d been waiting a long time for these inexpensive Lonsdale cigars to be back in stock. The Fonseca brand was founded in 1892 when Don Francisco E. Fonseca established a factory and cigar brand bearing the family name in Havana. It is the only Cuban cigar that is wrapped in silk tissue paper, and it is almost always sold out. Cigar snobs might think this is because the Fonseca is one of the least expensive Cuban cigars available, but then the Cohiba Siglo VI is also always sold out as well, and it is one of the most expensive! The Fonseca No.1 gives a nice, long hour of enjoyment in the late afternoon or early evening. With a guillotine cut, the draw is excellent and can be successfully smoked down to an inch, provided you burn off the gasses as it shortens. I look forward to the next time the No.1 is back in stock!

Floral first puffs become pleasantly sweet and nutty, as this corona gorda shows notes of almond-studded nougat, honey and cappuccino before a marzipan finish. The draw and burn remain even throughout.

As a rule I like Upmann cigars, but the Magnum 50 was a little harsh for my taste. I think it's mostly due to its size compared to the ones I usually smoke. That's what trying new cigars is all about--finding the ones you want to have again.

Relatively Rare Robusto
It was great coming across a cabinet of Epi 2s from May ‘22 … one of my favorite all-time cigars. These Robusto-size smokes have become increasingly rare lately and to make things even better, they were on sale at 10% off. Once again Bill & Cuban Cigar Group have delivered par excellence! As you can see from the pictures, they were in great condition: so far, every single one has had an excellent draw after a double-edged guillotine cut. My sense of taste & smell has suffered over the past 5 years – way before COVID began – and I don’t know why, but since my two favorite hobbies are cigars and cooking, I hope there’s a cure.

Terrific cigar and terrific service
Terrific cigar and terrific service as always from CCG Been smoking cigars since I was 18 and my first cigar was a Cuban romeo y julieta and since then went on a long journey for years to find a great source for habanos. My search is obviously over. Hoyo DCs are a favorite of mine and for a while thought production for these have ceased and this is the first actual box I bought of these. I will let them sit a little bit and enjoy them while my acquaintances cover their faces with masks haha.

As it gets harder and harder to find a good selection of double corona or Churchill sized cigars thanks to CCG for continuing to offer the best selections. These Hoyo’s will benefit greatly from some time in the humidor but I love this smoke. Thanks CCG

This fat and sassy cigar was introduced in the spring of 2004, but it has only recently begun to come into its own. The cigar measures 5 3/8 inches long by 52 ring gauge and is produced primarily in the H. Upmann factory, which is in the neighborhood of Nuevo Vedado in Havana. Originally, the cigar was rather mild, with a subtle cedary, tobacco character. Some even called it bland. But recent-production Edmundos have shown much more spice and coffee character. It’s as if the Cubans increased the strong tobacco (ligero) in the blend. A discussion with the factory heads at H. Upmann last fall didn’t reveal any changes, although they admitted to keeping an even more watchful eye on production and quality control. Whatever the reason, the cigar is now one of the most exciting coming out of Cuba.

An all time favorite
1st time buyer through Cuban Cigar Group and couldn't be happier. Arrived fresh and intact. Great to hand out to friends and wonderful to enjoy alone.
Amazing!
Took a little bit more than two weeks to arrive. It arrived very well packaged and as soon as I opened the box I was pleasantly overtaken by the distinctive aroma of high grade tobacco. Nothing could match that, not even close! Cigars were fresh and readily smokable. The box and the cigars looked like a piece of art that I almost was half tempted to keep it undisturbed. I finally lit one that afternoon and the taste was amazing. These are easily among my top cigars. I will definitely buy more now that I have made multiple orders and have established trust with the supplier. I definitely would recommend it, my only remark is the provider not restocking its items as promptly as I would want to.
Get service, superb delivery time.

Exquisite!
A friend brought me back one if there from London a few years ago and was incredible. The opportunity to purchase this great cigar was not to be passed up. The box I received has a date code if Nov 17, making these nicely aged upon arrival. Absolutely an excellent cigar; the craftsmanship quality and care really shows. And the taste...oh the taste...just can’t be beat. This is the best Montecristo I have ever had, and that includes the famed no. 2. These are not cheap, but well worth the investment. Get a box before they’re gone forever.
Fine Cigar!

Really enjoyed this cigar but really impressed how professional packed was my order - very pro and will buy again !
short but thick cigar for a short break
• Great balance of flavors: cedar, nuts and fruits mostly • A medium body with full flavors that goes great with a coffee smoking time: 30 minutes – 50 minutes
Great Romeo Y Julieta Petit Royals Cigars
Great Authentic cigars.
This little cigar leaves bold impressions of salty rawhide, wood and red pepper on the palate along with an oily licorice finish.

The San Cristóbal de La Habana El Torreón delivers a smooth, light-to-medium profile that gradually reaches medium body. It opens with honey sweetness, floral notes, bread, and toast before becoming drier, with white oak and deeper tobacco flavors. Its standout qualities are its clean retrohale, cool smoke, lingering finish, and satisfying balance rather than bold complexity.

While Cuban brands such as Cohiba or Montecristo are quite well-known to even novices in the cigar world, Sancho Panza might be new for some. It’s understandable as it’s not only a very small brand in the Habanos portfolio but it comes in only one regular-production size, the Belicoso. Despite this small share of the marketplace, its approachable price point and assertive strength have cemented its place in the hearts of aficionados. Every puff of this small belicoso (box date: April 2025) is powerful, yet intensely dessert-like, carrying decadently sandwiched layers of chocolate, honey-roasted peanut and toffee, sprinkled with assorted dried fruits such as cherry, raisin and fig.
Slightly pressed with attractive, tawny color. The draw is a bit tight, offering a very cedary smoke with some nuttiness and earth…

Rolled with a tawny wrapper and pigtail cap, this toro has a slightly soft head. Floral impressions, wood and some licorice notes are offset by a rustic earthiness. Elements of hazelnut and shortbread also emerge. It draws well, but the combustion is inconsistent.
Fat and pigtailed with an even draw and burn. It’s floral and woody with some stony-tasting elements and a faint vanilla sweetness.

Incredible
Worth every penny
smoked to the nub!
great smoke.complex with even burn. great price
first time with a Vegas Robaina Famosos
Bought two of these to fill out my order and have enjoyed one over a nice 25 yr old Single Malt. No after taste and an ash that was over an 1 long. Nice even burn and not one issue with them.
Underrated goodness
Very underrated smoke!! Excellent throughout the entire experience!!
No cigars match this search.
