Big Sky Cryptid 5×60 San Andres

The Big Sky Cryptid Maduro is one of those cigars that can truly make a powerful impression. This cigar, wrapped in a dark, oily San Andrés Maduro leaf and loaded with a rich Nicaraguan binder and filler, is more than just a beautiful representation of the mysterious Flathead Lake Monster to which it owes its name. It features power and depth but in a cleverly balanced way—made for smokers who want to dive deeper into the more interesting cigars.

The origins of the Cryptid Cigar start with Brandon Marsh, co-founder of Big Sky Cigars, who produced this pitch on his own, alongside Carlos at the factory. He initially asked for a cigar that would “melt his face off.” After several rounds of tweaking and adjusting, they came up with the perfect middle-ground – strong, flavorful, and smooth. When it premiered at the 2022 PCA Trade Show, it was quickly noticed not only for its remarkable taste but also for its perfection in construction.

When smoked, the Big Sky Cryptid Maduro offers flavors of cocoa, leather, and earth, with an underpinning of oak, white pepper, and a slight sweetness in the finish. The draw and burn are never wrong with this cigar, delivering a rich, complex profile that develops as you smoke it. It is a kind of cigar that one should concentrate fully on – balanced, bold, and utterly gratifying. By far, this is my favorite stick from the Big Sky portfolio.

If you are a cigar lover who values the expertise and character in the product, you cannot go wrong with the Big Sky Cryptid, which is one of the brand’s most unique. You will have an experience that is both memorable and rewarding if, either, you are attracted by the myth behind the name or the fortress-like blend enclosed.
