Cigarillos are small, short cigars. Some brands don't pack the punch of complex flavors, nor the slow burn of an excellent, hand-rolled corona but many of the small sticks are fun to smoke nonetheless. Their quick and easy nature and wonderful, aromatic flavors have actually made brands like Backwoods Cigars some of the most popular smokes around. Of course, the great, low price also helps but millions of aficionados vouch for this brand and show it by being faithful Backwoods customers for decades. Backwoods are so popular for the following reasons:

• A great, everyday smoke: When you just feel like enjoying quality tobacco at any time of the day, these tasty little sticks are heard to beat.
• Cost: Yes, I already mentioned that one but the low price is such a good point that it merits extra attention.
• Taste: Backwoods blends natural and flavored tobaccos for an intense, sweet experience that showcases the reasons why fermented tobacco has been so popular for more than a thousand years.
• It's a good smoke: Of course, this is the best reason of all and is basically why so many people can't seem to get enough of this great brand.

The Caribbean is a classic hotspot for cigar tobacco. Many of the finest smokes in the world were created from Cuban seed, Dominican leaf that was expertly cultivated and fermented, and cigar makers from the Caribbean region who passed their secrets down from generation to generation. With that in mind, it should come as no surprise that the sweet aroma and complexities of cured tobacco are just one of the flavors associated with the Caribbean.

One of the other principal flavors that is strongly associated with the Caribbean Islands is the sweet scent of rum. Both rum and cigars seem to go hand in hand as their aromatic flavors play off each other. Sipping top shelf rum while enjoying premium cigars will put anyone into a Caribbean mood and make you wish that you had bought that hand-made hammock on your last trip to the Dominican Republic. For a the perfect mix of these two evocative flavors, try the Thompson Rum Punch Cigarillo.

Flavored with cherry rum, these sweet little smokes promise a delicious smoking experience. The fine, high quality, flavor filled Dominican tobacco also ensures satisfaction with every draw.

Half Fast Mike from Chillicothe, OH reviewed the HAMPTON ARMS CIGARS TORO NATURAL

How can you go wrong buying a smoke from the Team of J.C. Newman and Cuesta Rey? The first thing was the 3 sticks in humipacs! Great idea! The toro fired up easily and the aroma was pleasant with white ash and slow burn. The draw was a little firm ( but I used a punch ). I think the flavor was very good, I'm not sure what the spices are, but nothing over powering. Just a good enjoyable smoke. The price is great! I will be buying more of these guys!

For decades, with only limited success, tobacco growers everywhere have been attempting to emulate the famed Cuban Corojo, the principal tobacco of Cuban cigar production. Reminiscent of the Colorado Claro, the deep red tinge of the Cuban Corojo is the grail of wrapper growers throughout the Caribbean Basin. So when the producers of Punch, one of the world’s largest cigar makers, achieved success, the reaction from those in the know was enthusiastic. So popular was the original production run of Punch Rare Corojo that it sold out in record time.
Now Punch announces a new incarnation of the Rare Corojo, promising to be even better than the original. This reintroduction again features the scarce dark, oily Corojo wrapper enveloping a select blend of Nicaraguan, Honduran Havana-seed and Dominican filler tobaccos. Complemented with a true Connecticut Broadleaf binder, the Punch Rare Corojo incorporates both quality and rich, robust taste. Like the original, this edition of Punch Rare Corojo is produced in extremely limited production. With the improvements realized with the new variety, this one looks to be even more wildly popular than the first. Obviously, we don’t expect our allotment to last long, nor do we know when we’ll be able to get more, so this offer is not likely to be repeated any time soon. Better order now while you can.

Long favorites of cigar smokers everywhere, Rum Punch and Rum Twist offer the delightful combination of tastes that go so well together – fine cigar tobacco and a delicate cherry rum flavoring. This is a pairing of flavors that has brought pleasure to cigar aficionados for over a century. Rum Punch and Rum Twist have been at the forefront of this preference for flavored cigars. Available in Mango too.

Now innovation has come to this old line of favorite cigars. Now they are handmade in the Dominican Republic. One of the advantages of the end of the cigar boom is the return to normalcy of tobacco prices, making it possible for manufacturers to secure higher quality tobaccos at reasonable prices. That also applies to the labor costs as well, making it now possible to hand make cigars that were once made only by machines. Such is the case with Rum Punch and Rum Twist. With the availability of higher quality tobaccos, you can enjoy a handmade cigar at machine-made prices. You’ll notice the difference with your first puff. Great before, but now they’re even better!

For decades since departing Cuba for the Dominican Republic, Upmann has been the cigar that sets the standard for Dominicans.

Now, taking advantage of the availability of a quantity of some outstandingly aged four year old African Cameroon wrapper, Upmann cigars ascend to the next level. The Cameroon provides the perfect complement to Upmann’s inspired blend of Dominican Piloto and Nicaraguan and Peruvian long fillers. The combination is spectacular.

To preserve and protect the taste of the Cameroon wrapper, Altadis spares no expense as they lovingly wrap each cigar in a cedar sheath. Each Upmann, nestled in a protective sleeve of cedar, continues its slow aging process. As a way of enhancing the process even more, Altadis goes the extra mile of inserting an additional cedar lining between the layers of cigars. When you taste the cedar aged Upmann Cameroon, you would swear you are smoking its Cuban namesake.
