Cigars Daily Spring Smoking 20 Cigar Collector’s Sampler

One to test. One to rest. That’s the idea behind every Cigars Daily Collector’s Sampler, and the Spring Smoking edition makes it count with ten blends worth going back to more than once.

This is a sampler designed to build your rotation. Gran Habano opens with two completely different personalities from George Rico’s Honduran factory: the boutique STK Black Dahlia delivers Nicaraguan Corojo complexity with cedar, coffee, and cream, while the Corojo No. 5 Maduro goes full dark side with rich chocolate and spice in one of the strongest blends in the Gran Habano catalog. Romeo Y Julieta shows up in two expressions, the brand new Profundo Toro pushing deeper and bolder than the Reserva Real has ever gone, and the silky, creamy Churchill stretching a long, elegant burn from an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over a Nicaraguan and Dominican core.

Montecristo brings the heavy hitters, the AJ Fernandez and Rafael Nodal crafted 1935 Anniversary Diamante and the classic Cuban-heritage Montecristo Robusto. Oliva steps in with the complex, full-bodied Serie V Belicoso and the dark, chocolate-forward Melanio Maduro Robusto. And Rocky Patel closes it out with the Sun Grown and Sun Grown Maduro Robusto side by side. Twenty cigars. Ten new favorites waiting to be discovered.
