Cigars

Flavored cigars are becoming more popular than ever. Some of the most celebrated options are genuinely palate-pleasing. Even some less conventional, lightly infused lines have won over purists who swore they’d never smoke one. From machine made or premium handmade cigars, flavored and infused cigars feature tobacco imbued with delicious flavors. We’re talking rum-infused lines, exotic spices, barrel-aged tobacco, rare botanical fruitiness, and more, made without an artificial feel. As demand for cigars with flavor grows, top-rated brands have released some incredibly premium selections. Lines you know and love like ACID, Tatiana, CAO Flavors, Deadwood, M by Macanudo, Nub Nuance, and dozens more dominate the market for their sweetness, wallet-friendliness, and approachability. If you’re looking for your next daily treat, explore a growing catalog of cigars here at JR Cigars.

What Qualifies as a Flavored Cigar?

For the uninitiated, a flavored cigar is one where the tobacco has been treated with added flavor. Something like fruit, vanilla, chocolate, coffee, rum, candy, berry, bourbon, or whatever the cigar maker is aiming for. That flavor comes from oils, syrups, or extracts applied to the tobacco or from letting the leaves age and rest with those scented ingredients.

Not every flavored cigar is handmade. Machine-made versions use chopped tobacco, or short-fillers, and get sprayed with artificial flavors. This keeps them inexpensive and easy to find. You’ll find these on-the-go options at your local gas station or convenience store. On the other hand, premium flavored cigars are crafted using quality tobacco and see a hybrid of coating and infusion to create incredibly spellbinding profiles. In some cases, the cigars are extensively aged so the profile can marinate deeply.

What are Infused Cigars?

While the words get tossed around a lot, flavored and infused cigars are a bit different. Flavored cigars usually get a surface spray or coating, so the taste shows up fast and hits right on the wrapper. On the flip side, infused cigars usually go through an “infusion” process. They’ll rest in sealed rooms lined with herbs, oils, or even in bourbon barrels to soak up the given flavors. Instead of those flavors being glued to the outside, it develops from inside out, creating a whole new experience that doesn’t take away from the cigar.

The slower infusion changes the entire ride. You’ll appreciate the deeper curve, a richer profile that builds with every draw, and experience a whirlwind of sweetness that’ll make you wonder why you didn’t try it sooner. From the coffee-infused, mouthwatering Rocky Patel Java Latte to highly praised Tabak Especial to the legendary ACID brand, these aromatically drenched infused cigars will make you a believer.
