Buy here Cigars form the Dominican Republic

In the 1970s, cigar production began in the Dominican Republic, triggered by Cubans in exile, who began to cultivate tobacco there with seeds from their home country. Among them were well-known personalities from the cigar world such as Arturo Fuente, Alonso Menendez, Carlos Torano and Manuel “Manolo” Quesada. These personalities created the myth about Dominican cigars within a few decades, from which the country and many manufacturers still benefit today. Neither smoking cigars nor tobacco cultivation is a new phenomenon in the Dominican Republic, because the Taino Indians already consumed tobacco in the time of Christopher Columbus, which they rolled into cigars.

The largest and most famous tobacco growing area in the country is located in the northwest and is called Valle del Cibao. Here you will find particularly fertile soils along the river Yaque del Norte, which rises in the west of the country and flows through the Valle del Cibao. The landscape is characterized by tobacco plantations, palm trees, mango trees and banana plantations. For a long time, the two well-known Dominican Olor - and Piloto tobacco varieties, which are mainly processed as insert tobacco, were primarily grown here. These two types of tobacco have had a lasting impact on the image of Dominican cigars. Both tobaccos have a mild sweetness and a medium - to full-bodied aroma. Other growing areas in the area are Moca, La Vega and Bonao, which are also located near the Yaque del Norte. The production center of the cigar industry in the Dominican Republic is located in the provincial capital Santiago de los Caballeros and in La Romana. Here you can find the well-known tabacaleras by Arturo Fuente, Davidoff and Macanudo.

As small as this distinctive cigar may be for about 30 - 40 minutes - it is in every respect a genuine Fuente of the classic series, completely handmade and with excellent Cameroon wrapper of the Meerapfel family in the dark variety.

Flavours

So little diameter, so much flavour! The medium-bodied small format delights with plenty of bittersweet cocoa flavour, malty earthy notes, elegant hints of tart freshness and coffee bean scent throughout. The smoke consistency is not a whit less silky than the thicker AF formats - a real masterpiece of the torcedores! And even at a length of only 10.5 cm, there is an aroma development - peat and roasted notes become steadily more concise without losing the delicate sweetness. Also interesting for fans of the "Anejo" series who are looking for a very small format!

For many years, the delicious little "Chicos" of the classic Fuente range have enjoyed great popularity. Now, under a rather poetic name, this longer version with a smoking time of approx. 35 - 45 minutes is coming onto the market

Flavours

The timeless combo of the best Dominican filler and a noble Cameroon wrapper from the Meerapfel family works in every format - and this extra-thin foil with a closed foot really makes its aroma palette shine! The flattering nutty/marzipan sweetness of the wrapper harmonises perfectly with the resinous "woody"-herbal spiciness of the blend, while finely woven spicy notes flit across the palate. In the background, a hint of cocoa spreads visibly, taking on an earthy character in the full-bodied last third. Medium-bodied tobacco, as spicy as it is charming.

Actually, by Cuban standards, this is more of a minuto than the so-named format of this series. And that's how expressive, pithy and uncomplicated the smoke presents itself for about half an hour. Perfect "break cigar"!

Flavours

The aroma of the medium-bodied small format is surprisingly close to that of the Robusto. Hardly spicier or stronger, at most it brings out the tropical-looking woody facets a little more. Otherwise, the little one offers everything fans expect from the tobacco blend: toasty and sweetish aromas of various nuts, the scent of a coffee roastery, just the right amount of caramel on the palate, more woody tones towards the end and finally a little gentle pepper tickle. All this in a nicely concentrated form, but never challengingly strong or intense.

Worth knowing

Not for nothing an absolute international bestseller, this classically dimensioned Robusto combines many things that appeal to practically every aficionado for an enjoyment of approx. 50 - 60 minutes: finesse, great craftsmanship, multifacetedness, suitability for everyday use.

Flavours

A broad, very harmonious range of flavours is offered here at a fair price. The tropical wood tones that usually predominate in VF are more of a subtle addition in the background here; the spotlight is on fruity components, primarily berries, which create an exciting interplay of sweetness and acidity. Creamy-sweet café au lait pampers the palate over the entire duration of the smoke. As a welcome counterpoint, a precisely dosed peppery tickle comes into play again and again - and even more so in the second half. A delight for everyone!

Worth knowing

Those who appreciate a little more punch and more pithy aromas as well as the uncomplicated nature of the Fuente mega-burner can enjoy its dark-robed sister for about 55 - 70 minutes - the wrapper is not a Broadleaf, but also from Cameroon!

Aroma

The aroma fully lives up to the promise of the "Maduro" term, but without letting the basic character of the blend disappear. This variant is toastier, more intense and also a little stronger; mocha and cocoa are on an equal footing with the sweet facets, which here go more in the fruity direction and have clearer floral overtones. At times, the Dominican-Cameroonian marriage is vaguely reminiscent of the taste of first-class Brazilian tobacco. In the last third, savoury, malty umami notes make you think more and more of delicious bread crust. The strength then lies smoothly in the midfield.

Worth knowing

Of course, it's not really strong - but this impressive, purely Dominican cigar certainly has a little more power than the similarly sized Toro. By SD standards, it's more for the evening, perfect with a glass of rum! The smoking time is around 70 - 85 minutes.

Flavour

The flagship of the line literally has a little bit more of almost everything! More ripe fruit flavour and generally a more opulent sweetness, more roasted notes, complemented by a more racy, albeit still restrained spiciness - but above all a pronounced development in the course of the smoke, which leads from the usual mild start with a variety of "vegetal" aromas through the emphatically nutty-creamy 2nd third to a more intense finish characterised by toast, coffee and various spicy notes. The last puffs are earthy and toasty, definitely medium-bodied, yet still subliminally sweet. Great workmanship!

Not much bigger than the largest cigarillos, the smallest VF format has the same density of flavors as the larger long fillers. For a smoking time of approx. 20 - 25 minutes, it will whisk you away to the Caribbean during your break!

Flavours

These 10 centimetres contain everything that VF fans love about the brand. The restrained astringency of tropical precious woods, a bitter-sweet cocoa note and roasted hazelnut aromas that come to the fore as the smoke progresses are the main components of the smoking pleasure, which, with an overall mild and light character, becomes significantly more intense in the second half than at the beginning. The cigar draws particular appeal from the delicate overtones that enrich its spectrum. Herbal tones emerge as well as gentle floral facets. Narrow cigar with a broad palette!

Like the "GR" basic line, this Perfecto series also has a Cameroon wrapper, but otherwise a completely different blend and also a completely independent aroma. This little bundle of joy for about 35 - 45 minutes smoking time is just right to try out.

Aroma

With a light draw, the short format spoils you with an extremely soft smoke that brings the typical cocoa and coffee notes to the palate in the most beautiful clarity, along with quite intense sweetness. Like a Hemingway short story, the small format manages to convey an enormous amount in a short time - roasted almonds, noble bitter walnuts, a fine cinnamon note and - towards the end - soft malt and peat flavours complement each other to form a decadent smoke that, at the very end, with a tapered ring gauge, increases in intensity. Top-heavy in terms of format, but aromatically well-balanced!

7" length, RM 70 - such cigar titans are not everyone's cup of tea, but are enjoying growing popularity, especially in the moderate price sector. The decisive factor is that tobacco quality and smokability are guaranteed - as here for over 2 hours!

Flavours

As expected, the basic blend here is a little mellowed, so that the smoking pleasure with this amount of tobacco remains such until the end. The 1st third turns out accordingly mild, with latte flair and discreet floral sweetness. The typical spice of the series comes into play gradually, but remains restrained overall. Roasted and leathery notes, on the other hand, gradually emerge - noble nuts, tea and mocha come to mind. The clever blending cleverly prevents the giant stogie from getting on your nerves - an entertaining smoke until the end!

Worth knowing

Another indestructible Fuente permanent burner is this (formerly called "Epicure") short Robusto format. It is the best choice if you want to try the classic blend with lush smoke volume in a time window of about 45 - 55 minutes. Well worth it!

Aroma

Like no other Fuente, this one is dominated by a multitude of finely balanced woody notes - cedar and other tropical plants combine their scent with the soft taste of almonds, sloppy chocolate and toast. Additional finesse and elegance come into play with floral-herbal overtones, a fresh grassy note and hints of invigorating citrus acid. The longer you smoke, the more clearly the spicy facets that were already present when lighting up return, giving the smoke more depth and tension. The strength, however, remains moderate throughout.

This classic toro is not as sinister as the name "Solar Eclipse" and the night-black tubo suggest - but while the thicker VSG.s tend to be a little lighter than the thin ones, this 75-90 minute enjoyment is quite something!

Flavours

A perfect cigar for a relaxed gentlemen's evening is this sturdy growler in a tubo, which plays off the characteristics of its format in exemplary fashion: Creamy-smooth smoke texture with plenty of variety! Here, "peppery" really means pleasant, pleasantly warming and only slightly pungent spice instead of penetrating bite, and it is wonderfully embedded in caramel sweetness, the typical coffee and malt/cocoa notes as well as - more clearly than with the Coronas - a latent fruitiness of sultanas and dark berries that shines through again and again. Gentle on the palate, yet rather something for experienced aficionados.

Not without reason did the "Cigar Journal" give the (slightly "extended") VSG Robusto an exorbitantly high rating - not only for this price sector. It perfectly sums up all the characteristics of the blend in about 1 hour.

Flavours

As with many other cigar series, the Robusto is particularly recommended for trying out. The "risk of repetition" is immense, because it is a real flavour bomb! A little lighter than most of its sisters, it shines with blissful cane sugar sweetness as well as with the variety of distinctive woody facets that Master Blender Carlito Fuente (yes, the one from A. Fuente!) has imprinted on the blend as a heart note. But those hoping for a fruity flavour component from Sungrown cigars will not be disappointed, nor will fans of robust roasted aromas.

Another 92-point test champion from Balmorals premium portfolio! Admirable how successfully the company has established itself in this segment. This Toro with a smoking time of approx. 75 - 90 minutes impressively shows why.

Flavours

The "Oscuro" variant is considered the strongest, along with the "Nicaragua" - not much of that is noticeable in this medium-bodied smoke. It is all the more harmoniously blended for it - the seductive chocolate and spice notes are clearly in focus, which result from the marriage of Brazilian tobacco with Mexican. Subtle fruity sweetness, but also refreshing ethereal herbs and conifers provide plenty of variety and an exciting, scintillating smoking experience that - like most cigars - becomes spicier towards the end. The smoke texture, however, remains wonderfully creamy throughout.

If there were a prize for the funniest belly band, you wouldn't have to look far for the winner. But the multicultural blend with a share of the rare Pelo d'Oro tobacco also puts a satisfied smile on every aficionado's face for a good half hour.

Flavours

This blend in a Corojo wrapper is one of the brand's stronger ones and comes across particularly expressive in the XS format. Mouth-filling espresso roast notes, a noble leather note, sweet facets with diffuse fruit character slightly reminiscent of red wine and distinctive dark wood flavours form the basic framework of the smoking pleasure; in between, meltingly tart walnuts and the maltiness of bread crust come around the corner. Comparisons with better-known brands are once again out of the question - Caldwell's team once again proves a golden hand for cigars beyond the mainstream.

Wissenswertes

Im Zeitalter der Gordos erfreuen sich im Corona-Bereich vor allem Zigarren dieser Größenordnung noch ungebrochener Beliebtheit – sehr zu Recht, denn mit konzentrierten Aromen und langer Rauchdauer (hier 45 – 55 Minuten) punkten sie zu fairen Preisen!

Aroma

Wie es sich für eine Top-Zigarrenserie gehört, hält auch diese mit jedem Format einen Smoke mit eigenem Charakter bereit. Hier etwa überwiegt die nussig-schmelzige Geschmackskomponente mit ihrer wohlig-weichen Anmutung, während die malzig-schokoladigen „Brasilnoten“ eher im Hintergrund über den Gaumen huschen. Der latente Kräutergeschmack – der sich übrigens bestens mit dem Zedernholz versteht! – ist dagegen ziemlich markant, vor allem im 2. Drittel. Typisch Corona, steigert die Zigarre linear ihren Körper und auch die – freilich überschaubare – Stärke.

Made in the DomRep, this line nevertheless has a high proportion of Nicaraguan tobaccos - the eponymous Corojo tobacco with its characteristic flavour profile also comes from there. The smoking time is a good hour.

Aroma

This cigar can be described as an expressive spice bomb with a good dash of fruit sweetness. At medium strength, cinnamon and clove as well as the etherealness of herbs meet a pleasant sultana taste. The smoke proves to be very complex, especially for this price range; a discreet leather note is just as noticeable as increasing toasty-nutty tones, but also a hint of citrus freshness. The last third is reminiscent of Christmas biscuits - a real value-for-money winner!

Worth knowing

The best-selling format of the original "Inspirado" series is a consensus cigar in the very best sense - aficionados with very different preferences appreciate its balanced character, which is fun to smoke for about 45 - 55 minutes.

Aroma

There is a bit more power here than in the good-natured Gigante, and the flavor is also more strongly determined by finely spicy wood and leather aromas as well as the scent of coffee beans. Nevertheless, the fruity-sweet tones are by no means neglected - remarkable complexity in this price league! The longer you smoke, the broader the spectrum, because visibly join also toast and earth - all this admittedly far from the intensity of strong cigars reserved for more experienced smokers. Here everything remains on a beginner-friendly level in the balance.

The most popular of all cigar formats has, of course, also become a box-office hit in this trendy Puro range. Almost an hour of smoking pleasure with all the trademarks of Nicaraguan premium tobacco is guaranteed!

Flavours

Woodier and a little spicier than the thicker formats, the smoke presents itself superbly balanced. The distinctive flavour of strong filter coffee goes well with the cedar scent, and of course the nutty and delicate character of the blend is not neglected either. Spice tones complement the enjoyment throughout the smoke; during the 2nd half, noble notes of dark chocolate are added, the roasted aromas then become even more concise. The strength goes gradually from the rather moderate to the medium-strong range. Once again, a real PLV champ!

With the dimensions of a Corona Grande comes one of the longer "Hemingway" leaf rolls. According to its name, it is meant to be a kind of flagship of the line - not without reason, you can convince yourself of that for about 55 - 70 minutes.

Aroma

If the short, thick cigars of the range delight with creaminess and sweetness in abundance, the longer ones are rather masters of variety. Here, too, all the leading flavours of the blend come to the fore without compromise - Caffè Cortado comes to mind, as do almonds and hazelnuts, cinnamon and nutmeg, cocoa and chocolate. All this is complemented by more spicy-herbal notes, there is more etherealness in play, and the overall rather subtle sweetness has a latent fruity touch again and again. In the last third, cocoa, earth and restrained pepper spice dominate the noble taste profile.

If you want to easily spend 2 hours with an awe-inspiring long format of upscale strength, you won't easily find a fairer deal than this special Vítola, probably called more out of embarrassment than DC!

Flavours

Don't worry, this giant comes across a little less strong than the "Sorcerer" - otherwise it would probably be a real challenge even for Chuck Norris. A touch more sweetness, a clearer cocoa note, but less spice and roasted aromas, that's how you can describe the differences to the Churchill of the series. What unites them is of course the omnipresent fine woodiness of VSG, but also complexity and balance. The smoke has a silky smooth texture throughout - the unusual combination of 19 cm length, RM 54 and box pressing pays off. Harmonious, satisfying, delicious!

This beauty with the trademark "hair bun" at the head end and the look all in plain black (Anilla, Maduro wrapper) has much more charm than its austere exterior suggests. However, the 70-80 minute smoke is likely to challenge the inexperienced

Flavours

A great, quite strong cigar for a cosy evening! Seductive sweetness of sultanas, cherries and heavy blossoms merge with noble bitter cocoa and mocha flavours. As it progresses, subtle leather notes gradually appear, accompanied by a steadily increasing but relatively subtle spiciness that has hardly anything peppery about it, but simply comes from the concise, soft tannins of well "aged" Ligero leaf. Smoky tones and a hearty, "animal" basic flavour in the final third are indeed somewhat reminiscent of ham! A full-bodied smoke for "advanced" smokers.

Unlike in our latitudes, the wind in the Cibao growing region usually comes from the east. According to La Galera, the tobaccos of this cigar owe their full-bodied taste to it. This may be true - the 60 - 75 minute smoke leaves nothing to be desired in terms of body.

Aroma

The beautiful 5.5"/48 format brings out the unconventional and delicious aroma of this powerhouse. Dark woods, peat and espresso, light treacle sweetness, leather and also herbal scents blend harmoniously in the oily dense smoke. For all the differences in taste, the strong, spice-accentuated cigar smokes almost like a 20th century Habano - impeccable draw, but slow burn and a creeping, steady build-up of strength as well as flavours. In the second half, one sometimes thinks of a delicious smoked ham, so hearty and "juicy" is this unusual delicacy!

Cigars that offer full enjoyment without compromise at such moderate prices are not found too often. Here is such a treasure, in a wonderfully designed, warmly coloured box! The thick five-incher burns for about 45 - 60 minutes.

Flavours

Easily the most exciting format in the lovable range, this cigar holds everything we expect from good criollo. Various piquant spices play tag on the palate, a nice leather note runs through the background, which harmonises perfectly with sweet, but also subtly sour fruit tones. The longer the smoke lasts, the more the pithy, down-to-earth tobacco spicy facets gain the upper hand. The finer registers are nevertheless pulled further until they are put down, so that a play of aromas develops that is rare in this price category. Medium-bodied, yet quite full-flavoured.

Almost every German cigar lover will recognize the bright golden brand emblem, as it is one of the most common in our tobacco stores. And the Churchill with its typical mild and spicy blend and approx. 75 - 95 minutes smoking time is the ideal introduction to the world of large cigars!

Flavor

Don't underestimate it, please! Like all cigars in the classic SD series, the flagship is clear, light and beginner-friendly. Nevertheless, the Lange in its inviting shade-grown wrapper has a certain spiciness that is initially clearly reminiscent of nutmeg and later of well-dosed, warming red pepper. First and foremost, however, the smoke is carried by wonderful nutty and roasted aromas reminiscent of almond and cashew, fresh toast and bread rolls. Occasionally, a hint of citrus-fruity acidity can be tasted, and a subtle, light honey sweetness clings to the palate. Simply a classic!
