When it’s time for a vacation, and you decide to hit the road, your cigar-smoking ritual changes to an entirely new experience.

Road trips are the perfect time to indulge in large cigars and experience something different from your usual smokes. Whether you’re smoking in your car while driving or while gathered around the campfire, your US road trip will only be elevated with a few well-chosen large cigars.

Every draw provides a new experience on the palette, the flavors opening a path of adventure as the cigar slowly burns. If smoking in your car, the variety of flavors will accompany the backdrop of your road trip and reignite the memory of your trip the next time you smoke the same cigar. On the other hand, if you save your cigars for the end of each stretch of the journey, your smoke will end each day calmly. Relax by the fire and reflect on the day with a hearty smoke in hand.

We’ve chosen five big cigars to take on a road trip so your next adventure is the tastiest one yet.
