12 best aromatic cigars

March 28, 2024

There’s nothing quite like the heavenly scent of a fine cigar. The best part of indulging in a premium stogie is the distinct aroma dancing through the air with every puff.

Cigars possess a unique ability to transport us back in time, linking to our memories with just a simple whiff. Our sense of smell is more closely connected with the brain’s memory than any other senses and can evoke our emotions. If you have happy memories associated with cigars, they’ll ignite once more as soon as you light up.

The aromatic cigar experience is more than you get with your typical stogie — it’s an experience you can etch into your memories for years.

Your cigar’s aroma is subjective and proposes a sneak peek into how the cigar tastes. While reveling in the tasty notes of coffee, cedar, leather, or wood from your chosen smoke, you may notice a pleasant aroma begins to fill the air.

Join us as we explore these fragrant sticks and pick out some of our favorite available lines.

What are aromatic cigars?

Aromatic cigars are the best-smelling. They offer an exceptional aroma and deliver a superior smoking experience. A cigar’s flavor and aroma are inseparable because our taste and smell senses are naturally linked together. This means that, with an aromatic cigar, you also get intense flavor.

These cigars are created by the chosen blend of tobacco in the cigar. Some cigar manufacturers have even explored this further by introducing flavor infusions.

Flavored cigars are made by makers who allocate dedicated rooms lined with botanicals, essential oils, and herbs. These rooms are designed to infuse tobacco slowly, creating an original blend with unique flavors and aromas.
