Too many to name. Pick up a current issue of Cigar Aficionado and go from there- Lots of releases and reviews listed.
Or jump on YouTube. |

Or jump on YouTube. I respectfully disagree. I don't trust either CA, nor utubers. My suggestion would be to get a couple samplers from Small Batch.....I try to smoke different cigars every day, but I'd be ok with just Crowned Heads, Cubans and RomaCraft til the end of days |

Some of the best cigars I have ever found have come from YT reviews. It depends on the channel. A lot of those guys and gals are honest too, because they don't get paid (some not at all and some not enough) to lie about it.
Some reviews I watch to figure out what to sample and some I watch for pure enjoyment. |

Cigar Aficionado= some of the most highly paid reviews money can buy  |

RMAN4443 wrote:Cigar Aficionado= some of the most highly paid reviews money can buy Well of course. That is obvious. YouTube reviews are far better. 1 because they are visual and 2 they are more honest. |

RMAN4443 wrote:Cigar Aficionado= some of the most highly paid reviews money can buy But then again, whether they are paid or not doesn't make them wrong. Reviewers have to get paid like everyone else. Doesn't mean they are inaccurate. Most of them are not straight out paid to lie. |

Well, not too many cigar makers are gonna pay $20,000 for a BAD review....  as a matter of fact, I've never seen a bad review in CA, even though I've seen reviews of BAD cigars in there  |

Depends on what you are willing to spend. Ave Maria Divinia for just under $3 per on FREE FALL is nice. My Father Robusto for $5 per on Special now.  |
