Buy here cigars from Honduras
The small republic of Honduras borders Guatemala to the northwest, El Salvador to the west and Nicaragua to the south, and is flanked by the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The tropical rainforest covers almost half of the country and offers breathtaking flora and fauna. Like many Central American countries, Honduras is crisscrossed by numerous volcanoes, which has strongly shaped the country's tobacco tradition and the offshore Caribbean islands have emerged. The many rivers flow exclusively in an easterly direction through the valleys of the plateau and flow into the Atlantic Ocean. The ruins of Copan are the largest cultural monument in Honduras and still bear witness to the great Mayan rulers. Copan lies on the northwestern border with Guatemala and was an important hub in the Maya empire. The city reached its heyday in the 8th century and was abandoned two centuries later. Already with the arrival of Christopher Columbus the indigenous population had disappeared without a trace and only weathered traces of the former rulers could be seen. It was also Columbus who gave the country its name, as there are unusual depths off the country's Atlantic coast. Honduras is derived from “Hondura” and translated from Spanish means depth.
The largest tobacco growing area in Honduras is the state of "El Paraiso", a predominantly mountainous area on the southern border with Nicaragua that is in the immediate vicinity of Nueva Segovia and Esteli. El Paraiso is on average 800 meters above sea level and pushes the tropical climate of the country to a pleasant 20°C in the annual mean. In addition to the excellent weather conditions, the particularly fertile soils offer the best conditions for tobacco cultivation. The ideal conditions are still adorned today by the centuries-old tradition of tobacco cultivation, because the Maya began to grow tobacco in Honduras. The area around the ruins of Copan is still used for tobacco cultivation today.

The real person was considered the mistress of Louis XIV, in Thomas Mann's Nobel Prize-winning mammoth work "The Magic Mountain" the name appears as a cigar brand. Thanks to the German "tobacco family" Schuster, fiction became reality - here burning for approx. 50 - 60 minutes!
Aroma
Like Thomas Mann's literature, the classic MM blend is subtle and subtle, convincing with quiet tones rather than brutal strength and intensity. The Honduran Puro is not stingy with playful tropical wood aromas as well as with a velvety smoky texture, notes of the best tea complement each other with a sweet, tangy almond flavour and the scent of hay. With an overall moderate development of strength, the smoking experience takes a format-typical beautiful development towards more earth and dark chocolate, but always retains its creaminess and fine sweetness. The perfect companion on a dreamy summer afternoon!

We don't know if the famous French general and later president would have smoked this short Robusto - in any case, his name fits perfectly to this characterful and tradition-conscious cigar with a smoking time of about 50 - 60 minutes!
Flavours
Despite all the inevitable similarities, this series has succeeded magnificently in giving the individual formats their own flavour profile. The grassy, herbal freshness is more prominent than the cedar notes; at the same time, the smoke is somewhat sweeter than the Corona, for example. The velvety smooth smoke texture also brings nutty roasted aromas, the taste of white or toast bread and a hint of cocoa to the palate as it progresses; the strength remains in the lower mid-range almost throughout, so that even the inexperienced need not shy away from this extremely fairly priced cigar.

At a time when the Robusto has long since replaced the Corona as the standard medium format, this Vítola is expected to bring the character of a blend to the point in the most balanced way possible. And that's exactly what it does for about 45 - 55 minutes!
Flavours
There really is a bit of everything here that makes up the basic series. Lots of fragrant, light aromas, from herbal spice to fine spicy woods and sweet fruit to invigorating subtle citrus acidity; but also the characteristic almond flavour and a plethora of notes reminiscent of coffee are of course at the start. The leaf roll manages the balancing act between a soft, beginner-friendly smoking sensation on the one hand and body and depth of flavour on the other in a particularly exemplary manner. In the last third, green pepper and oriental spices mix into the creamy-woody-sweet flavour world.

What could be more natural than to give a great torpedo the name of the novel from which the company name also comes? But don't worry, enjoying this pyrámide does not require in-depth knowledge of literature - just about 65 - 85 minutes!
Aroma
A smooth, palate-pleasing cigar that won't overwhelm anyone, but also offers enough intensity and variety for experienced smokers! Light nuts and buttered toast, freshly turned hay and finely spiced garden herbs, a hint of earth and in the second half also a cautious reach into the spice box - the excellently balanced play of aromas has several pleasant facets in store, and the usual transition from sweet to somewhat spicier tones takes place here with exemplary subtlety. In the end, wood and coffee notes predominate. A real PLV champion!

Eine alte japanische Methode des Porzellanhandwerks als Vorbild für Zigarren zu nehmen, mag schräg wirken. Aber, wie Altkanzler Kohl sagte: Wichtig ist, was hinten rauskommt! In diesem Fall eine tolle Robusto mit ca. 1 Stunde Rauchdauer.
Aroma
Gleich nach dem Anzünden kleben fette Toastbrot- und Erdnussaromen am Gaumen, verbunden mit hinreißender, beinahe Popcorn-mäßiger Süße. Röstig, aber keine Spur harsch, mit cremiger Schokonote und leicht herbalen Zwischentönen, wird die extrem gutmütige Zigarre im Rauchverlauf kaum stärker, wohl aber vollmundiger, mit etwas mehr Würze und holzigen Tönen. Mächtige Rauchentwicklung, unkomplizierter Abbrand. Im letzten Drittel bereichern pikante Gewürznoten das Aromenprofil. Der tolle Smoke wird auch Unerfahrene nicht überfordern.

Early on, the German "tobacco family" Schuster recognised the potential of Honduran tobacco. This line, as its name suggests, is more for after dinner - especially the compact Robusto with a smoking time of about 45 - 55 minutes.
Flavours
While the Robustos of other brands are often moderate entry-level formats, this one is more like the "powerhouse" of the series. While not as strong as earlier batches, it still has above-average strength and brings an intense but very harmonious package of spicy notes to the aficionado's palate. Ginger and black pepper, a distinctive leatheriness, black tea and tropical wood, but also the tangy sweetness of liquorice give a rendezvous, which should also please fans of the stronger Alec Bradley blends. A hearty smoking pleasure at a quite astonishing price nowadays!

Cigars with a spicy Broadleaf wrapper are currently one of the hottest trends. Alongside brands such as Alec Bradley and A.J. Fernández, Camacho is now also impressing with a great new series of this type. The classic five-incher offers the perfect introduction for 45 - 60 minutes.
Aroma
The "adventurous character" of the blend conjured up by the manufacturer is most evident in the smallest format. Here, the "bacony" Broadleaf character reigns with profound peat notes and just the right dose of pepper alongside wood tones and the concise taste of strong coffee. Located in the "medium+" strength range, the expressive cigar also spoils with fine chocolate sweetness, a liquorice touch and - especially in the last third - a subtle hint of leather. A multi-layered affair, of course, with the well-known great smoking characteristics of the brand.

Auch das Flaggschiff der japanisch inspirierten neuen Serie hat ganz klassische Abmessungen, und wer zuerst die kleineren Formate probiert, bekommt genau, was er erwartet: einen spannenden Smoke für ca. 75 – 90 Minuten.
Aroma
Anfangs nicht ganz so süß wie seine kleinen Schwestern, bietet der „Turm“ doch durchgehend ein wohliges, sanftes Raucherlebnis mit vielfältigen Noten von Cerealien, Milchkaffee, Zartbitterschokolade, später auch etwas Erde und diverse süßliche Gewürze wie Zimt. Eine auf dezente Weise pikante, insgesamt aber eher liebliche Zigarre, die zuweilen – ähnlich wie manch leichterer Rocky Patel-Blend – im positiven Sinne etwas von einer Barbecue-Sauce hat, mit rauchig-deftigen, aber eben auch intensiv süßen Facetten. Sehr originell und gefällig gemischt, super verarbeitet!

This series already bears a hint of the box pressing in its name (dt. „gepresst“). The enchanting rosado wrappers made from Honduran Corojo naturally come into their own on this chunky cigar with a smoking time of approx. 70 – 90 minutes.
Flavours
The stately ring gauge and the box pressing go very well together in that they create a great balance between creamy, smooth smoky flavour and pithy spiciness. Rather untypical for such formats, the smoke shows a nice clear development from a quite mild, sweet and carried by cocoa and wood flavours up to a rather crisp, rather earthy, toasty and spicy finish. In between, there are flashes of herbal fragrance and slight hints of ripe fruit flavours, permanently accompanied by a pleasant peppery spiciness.

The trend towards oversize is taken into account at CLE with this Oschi. However, an old fox like Christian Eiroa not only satisfies the demand for Gordos with this six-incher, but also uses all the advantages that the format (smoking time around 105 minutes) offers when blending!
Aroma
As expected, the blend is somewhat toned down compared to the Robusto, so that the strength remains more in the medium range. Nevertheless, a baroque abundance of spicy facets hits the palate - Mediterranean herbs next to oriental spices, woody astringency next to roasty coffee scent, all nicely balanced throughout and embedded in a creamy smoke texture. Nutty, melting charm and a subtle sweetness of dark fruits and liquorice skilfully prevent the overall impression from going too much in the direction of spiciness and heftiness. Complex taste, uncomplicated burn!

The FdC cigars are rolled in the Central American "tri-border area", where Honduras borders Guatemala and El Salvador. The flagship of the classic line is this proud beauty, which, despite a very comfortable draw, comes to a burn time of 80 - 95 minutes.
Flavours
Without being really stronger, the Churchill comes across as somewhat spicier, more pithy than its shorter sisters due to its format. Here, the fine spicy cedar flavour is more in focus, but of course there is also a clear honey and later caramel sweetness. From the second third onwards, a delicious roasted aroma spreads, which evokes associations with coffee as well as nuts. The blending's blissful chocolate/cocoa note is also present and plays itself further into the foreground as the smoke progresses. Light in the 1st half, this large format ends at a just medium strength level.

FdC always works! The Honduran bestseller brand is in demand with the reliability of a Swiss watch, and so we are very happy to expand our stock with this chic dwarf with a smoking time of approx. 25 - 35 minutes.
Flavors
The unmistakable Copán style in a highly compressed form - somewhat stronger than some other formats, but still by no means strong. The balanced marriage of Honduran and Nicaraguan leaf provides a beautiful interplay of creamy, nutty sweetness with woody, astringent components, fueled by the influence of the enveloping cedar. A colorful bouquet of lovely overtones floats above this, partly floral, partly fruity (apricot) or reminiscent of meadow honey - but spicier, more piquant details can also be tasted, even a restrained pinch of pepper towards the end. As pleasant as usual and super rolled!

It is a matter of honour that we include this customer favourite among the larger Honduran cigars in our range! The Toro in the brand-typical cedar leaf guise burns for about 1 ¼ hours and beautifully testifies to the leap in quality of the country of production.
Flavours
A rather light cigar, as usual from FdC, admittedly also mild throughout, but by no means lacking in flavour! Relatively spicy for the manageable, beginner-friendly nicotine content, it has a lovely subtle honey sweetness as a counterpoint, which also reminds of yellow fruits like apricots again and again in the course of smoking. The creaminess is remarkable, latte and the melting of almonds come to mind. In the last third, the focus is more on woody notes, the nutty facets now have a toasty impact, while the strength touches the middle spectrum.

In contrast to the stately Torpedo, this dainty "cartridge" is rather a small format for approx. 40 - 50 minutes of smoking time. Similar to the No. 1, it has a character of its own - it's really worth trying this series!
Flavours
As pointed as the shape of this unusually sized cigar is its flavour progression. The massive chocolate note of the big Torpedo is a little more restrained here, but still clearly palpable. The longer you smoke it, the more woody and spicy aromas assert themselves, accompanied by herbal scents and the fine hint of leather typical of the series. In general, the Belicoso is characterised more than other Vítolas by "vegetal" facets - coniferous ethereal, spicy herbs and cedar in combination with discreet liquorice and towards the end pleasantly earthy-peppery components. One of the stronger PdB.s!

Composed entirely of Honduran leaves except for the wrapper, this 50 Toro will delight fans of the spicy Corojo variety! With a light draw, it burns for about 65 - 75 minutes; but if you make the mistake of smoking the wrapper decorative leaf as well, it might take a little longer.
Flavours
Masterfully, Oscar has succeeded in blending a full-flavoured cigar with a very intense flavour that is nevertheless not particularly strong or harsh in the least. The common thread is a dazzling bouquet of herbal and spicy notes, with rosemary, clove, allspice, nutmeg and mild pepper, reminiscent of Mediterranean and oriental aromatic worlds. Together with the scent of coniferous woods, the result is an unmistakable flavour, visibly complemented by toasty and earthy facets, but also subtle caramel sweetness. An exquisite, original smoke of medium strength.

For friends of stronger tobacco, this new Toro in an immaculate broadleaf is an exciting discovery at a fair price. Like all Camachos designed for a comfortable draw, it brings an expressive mix of flavours to the palate for about 55 - 70 minutes.
Aroma
This is the most balanced of the new Broadleaf series - the hearty expressiveness of the Robusto and the smooth creaminess of the Gordo are beautifully balanced! Herb-sweet, noble aromas of coffee beans and dark chocolate, the scent of oak, a subtle treacle sweetness and the warming spiciness of black pepper form a multi-faceted flavourful framework, delightfully complemented by the characteristic fat "BBQ" touch of the Broadleaf wrapper grown in Honduras, but also by the spicy tones of all kinds of exotic spices. As exciting as it is uncomplicated!

It's a bit like unwrapping presents – if you take off the Cedro, a shimmering wrapper from San Andrés is revealed. As a gift you get this Toro-sized Figurado not, but for 65 – 80 minutes of smoking time, the price is very fair.
Flavors
Smaller, fuller-bodied and also a little stronger is the Maduro series of the best-selling Honduran brand designed – and the large Belicoso with its format-typical balance of soft smoke (large ring gauge) and flavor concentration (narrow head) plays these characteristics wonderfully. The wrapper brings in opulent cocoa and spice notes. In general, the smoking experience is characterized by smooth, often coffee bean-like aromas; later they drift visibly into earthy-malty. Delicious raisins are permanently resonating in the background. Absolutely round and harmonious!

The cuddly short cigar with the implied chisel shape stands - as in the classic series - for about 45 - 55 minutes of uncomplicated tobacco enjoyment par excellence. Due to the format, the wrapper with a cedro is not possible - the faster the cigar burns!
Flavors
Perfect maduro feel-good aromatics without excessive strength, but with all the more delicious caramel sweetness delivers the "little fat". Except for the woody component, which does not really play a role here, it drives everything that is in the blend: rich mocha flavor, melting men's chocolate, a roasted nut mixture and some dried fruit result in a wonderful interplay of roasted and sweet components in dreamlike balance, refined underpinned by a well-dosed small pinch of pepper and other spices. A real insider tip!

A beautiful figurado should not be missing from the range of the "new" aliados, as the format has a number of advantages - from the comfortable cut to the varied course of the smoke. Convince yourself for about 75 - 90 minutes, it's worth it!

2 cigars with the same dimensions (6"/50) and the same main blend - does it have to be? Oh yes, because the differences in taste are unmistakable! If the Toro tightens up rather linearly in terms of strength and intensity, the sweetish notes predominate in the Pyrámide for a long time - fruity-hot barbecue sauce with dried fruit and molasses comes to mind - while the strength is just above that of the sister format even before the final third. Again and again, notes of coffee beans, salt, various spices and, of course, leather flit across the palate before full, unadulterated tobacco spice sets in towards the end.

What you need to know
When something has an "edge" in English, it shows edge, doesn't want to be everyone's favorite - and so Rocky recommends that we prefer to smoke the cigars in this series sitting down! However, the after-black maduro with a smoking time of approx. 70 - 85 minutes is not that strong, but super good!
Flavors
How the master blenders always manage to match the flavors of maduros so that the taste experience perfectly matches the (here particularly dark) visual impression! Even if you couldn't see the cigar, you wouldn't think of anything light here - strong Turkish mocha, bitter chocolate, roasted tart nuts, peat and liquorice are the key notes of this quite strong, but never overpowering Toro. Occasionally, however, a hint of fig/raisin sweetness wafts across the palate, while the finish is wonderfully full-bodied with ginger and well-dosed pepper. PLV champ for the experienced!

Alec Bradley feiern den Erfolg einer ihrer beliebtesten Reihen mit dieser spektakulären neuen „Boxpressed“-Sonderedition im dicken Toro-Format. Die gewohnt gehaltvolle, fast ausschließlich nicaraguanische Mischung brennt ca. 75 – 95 Minuten.
Aromen
Hier tauchen alle von der regulären „BME“-Serie gewohnten Aromen auf, allerdings in besonders konzentrierter Form. Nach markant röstigem Antritt kleidet wohliger Kakaogeschmack den Gaumen ein, begleitet von schweren dunklen Eichennoten. Zunehmend ist ein unterschwelliger süßlicher Fruchtgeschmack wie von dunklen Beeren präsent. Die Süße und die ausgeprägte Würze des Blends sind hier besonders fein ausbalanciert; erstere bleibt bis zum Finish erhalten, während der lakritzige Kakaoton immer tiefer wird. Die toastigen Obertöne weichen nach und nach Kaffee-Röstnoten. Intensiv und recht kräftig.

Wie die reguläre BM-Serie ist auch diese in eine riesige „Bauchbinde“ gehüllt; nimmt man sie ab, bleibt ein winziger zweiter Ring übrig. Aber nicht nur die Aufmachung, auch die Tabakqualität des 70 – 85minütigen Smokes ist spektakulär.
Aromen
Diese Linie zählt aus guten Gründen zu den Bestsellern von Alec Bradley, und gerade die Toro bietet zum Freundschaftspreis ein ziemliches Aromenfeuerwerk – der Clou mit den 2 verschiedenen Deckblättern macht für den Geschmack wirklich Sinn. Im Mittelpunkt stehen „dunkle“ Noten wie Kaffee, Erde und Lakritze. Pikante Gewürze, auch eine wohldosierte Prise Pfeffer ergänzen die Aromatik ebenso wie die für den Blend charakteristischen Anklänge herbsüßen Fruchtgeschmacks. Bis zum Ablegen bleibt die Vielfalt erhalten, wiewohl die Intensität der überdurchschnittlich kräftigen Zigarre etwas ansteigt.

Of course, every new series today has to include a Gordo - but the big ones have their advantages, such as large smoke volume, great draw and lots of flavour. Around 1 ½ hours of fun!
Flavours
The regular series is rather mild and gentle - the Maduro variant is more powerful. However, the beautifully balanced flavours are also wonderfully smooth on the palate, especially in the 60mm RM. Wonderful chocolate notes, fine malt notes on the palate, a good portion of sultana sweetness, but also some of the creaminess and the delicious café au lait flavour of the standard series come together to form a harmonious whole at medium strength. Linear adds a little more flavour. Lots of opulence at a fair price!

Tolle Idee, die typische kernige Würze der nicaraguanischen Einlage mit der schokoladig-malzigen Süße und leicht ledrigen Anmutung eines brasilianischen Umblatts und den tiefen, süßlichen Kaffee- und Erdaromen eines gereiften San Andrés-Wrappers zu vermählen! Die Mischung hat Charakter, Vielfalt und spürbar mehr Körper als die „Natural“-Variante. Sie ist auch merklich kräftiger – die Einstufung „medium +“ kommt gut hin. Die an Rosinen bzw. Dörrobst erinnernde Fruchtnote bleibt auch im letzten Drittel erhalten, wenn Röst- und Erdaromatik Raum greifen.
