Charatan 160th Anniversary Special Edition
September 2023

In the grand year of 1863. a gentleman by the name of Fredrick Charatan graced bustling London - decades before Tower Bridge was even dreamt of - a legacy of tradition, an ode to flavours and enamouring smoke was born.

For 160 years, the name Charatan has been synonymous with British love for exquisite tobacco in the form of premium hand-rolled cigars, pip tobacco and handcrafted pipes.

As historic and meaningful to the United Kingdom as London's Underground or the English Football Association, both also founded in 1863, we do not take the remarkable heritage of Charatan lightly.

We stand honoured to present you with Charatan's 160th Anniversary Special Edition. Join us in celebrating the exceptional journey of an immigrant family name now quintessential in British culture.

The Nicaraguan Jalapa filler combined with a Mexican binder and wrapped in a Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper provides you with a brilliantly smooth and tastefully creamy masterpiece

LCDH Bolivar New Gold Medal
August 2023

The Bolivar New Gold Medal measures 6 1/2 inches long by 48 ring gauge, a shape known as Partagas 15 in Cuban cigar factories.

The "New" in the name is to highlight its difference from the cigar simply known as Bolivar Gold Medal, which is the same length but thinner, only 42 ring, before it was discontinued in 2011. Each cigar is wrapped in a regal sheet of golden foil embossed with the repeating Bolivar logo.

Simon Bolivar was one of the great historic figures of the 19th Century who liberated much of South America from Spanish rule.

The Bolivar brand was created in 1902 and is based today in the Partagas factory which is in the heart of Havana. 

It is perhaps not surprising that a Habano named after such a powerful figure is blended to match his might. Bolivar is among the strongest, most full bodied of all Habanos. It boasts an unrivalled richness of flavour in its blend of Vuelta Abajo zone filler and binder tobacco that makes it one of the most sought-after marques amongst experienced smokers.

New In - Montecristo Wide Edmundo
August 2023

The Wide Edmundo is the fourth cigar in the brand’s portfolio to bear the Edmundo name, following the launch of the original in 2004.

However, uniquely among its stablemates, the Wide Edmundo is dressed with a second band bearing its name. It is an entirely new vitola within the Habanos portfolio called the Duke No.3. It measures an impressive 4 7/8” (125mm) x 54 ring gauge - Perhaps unsurprisingly, that makes it the heaviest ring gauge in the Edmundo range.

Cigar Aficionado rated the Wide Edmundo 92/100 and said - "A reddish-brown robusto with a flat head and slightly firm draw. Initial floral and earthy notes develop coffee, leather, spice and toasty intonations before a salted peanut finish..."

Davidoff Nicaragua 10th Anniversary Gran Toro Limited Edition
July 2023

In the pioneering spirit of Zino Davidoff, Davidoff Master Blenders sought out a new blend that would stimulate both bitter and sweet taste buds. They finally found it in Nicaragua, where the earth is infused by the fiery activity of volcanoes.

2013 was an important year for the Davidoff brand, as it marked the introduction of the very first Davidoff cigar carrying a Black Band – Davidoff Nicaragua.

Complementing the elegant White Band Collection, the newly born Black Band Collection targeted a more dynamic and adventurous clientele looking for unknown flavours and a more intense palate stimulation. This has remained the same until today, with the joining of the Escurio and Yamasá lines in 2015 and 2016 respectively, which diversified the Black Band portfolio even further.

This year, Davidoff celebrates the Nicaragua line’s ten-year anniversary by releasing a special limited-edition cigar!

To please aficionados who are in search of new taste sensations, Davidoff’s Master Blenders composed the limited- edition gran toro cigar with a selection of tobaccos of a total age of 45 years, which they never combined in one blend before.

Another novelty for Davidoff is the rum cask aged Estelí seco tobacco: It creates a depth which is unprecedented for Davidoff Nicaragua – a palate stimulation on a new level.

The 12 gran toro cigars come in a wooden box which displays the carefully varnished Nicaragua pattern. The frame reflects the striking colour of the Nicaragua line around the box, and a 10th anniversary sticker on the lid highlights the special occasion.

This is unchartered taste territory. This is the highest these uncommon and intense ingredients can reach - THIS IS PEAK NICARAGUA

Each box is a Nub Humidor and each humidor contains twenty four Nub 460s in the four different blends along with a Boveda 60g 69% to keep the cigars in perfect condition.

Considered one of the most innovative cigar concepts, Nub is a line of short, stout and well-filled smokes blended to capture the perfect essence of a cigar.

6 x Nub SG 460 - The Nicaraguan long filler leaves are wrapped in a beautiful sungrown wrapper leaf. This wrapper leaf adds a touch of spice to the blend.

6 x Nub Maduro 460 - This cigar has been hand rolled in Nicaragua and features a beautiful Maduro wrapper adding a slight sweetness to the lips. 

1 x Boveda 69% 60g

Oliva Aliados
June 2023

The Oliva Cigar story began in the late 1800s, when Melanio Oliva started growing cigar tobacco in Cuba. His heirs carried on the family tradition in the fields, but it was his grandson Gilberto Oliva Sr. who began making cigars. 

After decades of tutelage under Cuba's finest, Rolando Reyes founded Cuba Aliados. Rolando had a simple vision, a high quality cigar that was not only enjoyable but affordable. Embracing the heritage Aliados has been resurrected in Honduras under those same principles, utilizing the original blend that Rolando Reyes perfected nearly 50 years ago.

These medium strength cigars are a smooth, harmonious smoke with notes of toasted cedar and earth followed by hints of black pepper and floral tones.

End of Line - Plasencia Reserva 1898
May 2023

Plasencia Cigars are the leading producer of premium cigars and the largest producer of tobacco in Central America, they were awarded 1st place in a consumer cigar blind tasting held by Manuel’s, one of the finest and most renowned cigar shops in Zürich, Switzerland. The award was conferred for its Alma del Campo Tribu cigar, one of the company's first brand name cigars to be introduced to the market.

Plasencias goal is to use the best leaves of aged tobacco exclusively in their cigars leaving them in the hands of the best collaborators in the fields and artists of the factories.

Plasencia Reserva 1898 vaunts its goodness in every way. The leaves are derived from the finest tobaccos grown in Nicaragua and Honduras. The result is a full-flavoured delight, with chocolate notes hitting the palate at first. This flavour profile is laced with hints of walnut, dried figs and leather, followed by subtle notes of pepper.

Davidoff have recently announced that they are discontinuing the Plasencia Reserva 1898 range, so we have reduced down the price of the Robusto to an unbelieveable price! Get them before they run out!

Hidden away in the heart of the Connecticut River Tobacco Valley - Known as the world's premier tobacco growing region, there is the world’s only corporate cigar office based on a farm. This office is the home of the Foundation Cigar Company

The founder of Foundation cigars, Nick Melillo could have stayed as Head Blender of Drew Estate Cigars which he has held since 2003 or take a risk and seize an opportunity to use his 20 years of experience and his access to the highest quality tobacco to make his own cigars of his dreams.

They have three Ranges - The Charter Oak Broadleaf which comes in a Toro or a Lonsdale, The El Gueguense Wiseman which comes in Lancero and Robusto and The Tabernacle Toro.

Cuban Cigar of the Month - Montecristo No. 4
April 2023

Montecristo is the best known and probably most appreciated brand of Habanos throughout the world. It forms the benchmark for many Habanos smokers against which other brands are judged. 

The name comes from the hero of Alexandre Dumas' famous novel 'The Count of Montecristo,' which was a firm favourite when read by the Lector to the Torcedores (cigar makers) at the factory where it was founded in 1935. 

The original Montecristo range of sizes was composed of a narrow assortment numbered from 1 to 5. Today it consists of a wide variety of vitolas to cover every level of the cigar enthusiast's needs. 

Montecristo's perfectly balanced blends are created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world. 

A true icon in the world of great Havana cigars. This Mareva expresses the crisp and spicy flavours that we associate so much with Montecristo, it is ideal with an espresso in the afternoon.
