Top 5 National Championship Game Cigars 2022

For the second year in a row, we’re dedicating a top 5 to the National Championship game for College Football. The University of Alabama and Georgia University square off on January 10th and will be a game for the ages.

This idea for a Top 5 National Championship Cigar list was sparked by Mr. Joe Burrow himself. When the former Louisiana State University quarterback won the National Championship in January of 2020, he was walking around the locker room postgame with a cigar in his mouth.

We figured “why not create a list of cigars for college football fans to enjoy in case their team wins”. Me being a Notre Dame fan, it looks like I won’t be lighting up a stogie in celebration any time soon.

The cigars on this list, from Ashton to Perdomo, are made for excellence and celebration, and that’s exactly what happens when you are a champion. So, without further ado, here are the Top 5 National Championship Game Cigars for 2022.

Don’t forget to get this limited-time sampler at the link below.

    The Undercrown Sungrown is one of my go-to sticks. (I believe the Lakers were smoking the UC Shade after winning the NBA championship).
