OGT Variety Club, Cigar Of The Month Club – May 2026

We have journeyed to the far reaches of the PCA Tradeshow to return with the ultimate elixir! I present to you 5 incredible blends we get to share through our OGT Variety Club! Welcome to the May 2026 box: an exploration into the depths of the palate, from the rare to the limited to the new releases! This Cigar Club is all about exploring new blends and the craft of cigar making. This special box doesn’t just highlight the cigars you NEED to smoke, but also the rare ones others don’t get to smoke!

The May 2026 feature for this OGT Cigar Of The Month Club showcases manufacturers like El Mago Cigars (the newest brand added to the Oak Glen Tobacconist humidor), Black Works Studio, Cigar Clowns, and an OGT Exclusive Tri-Barber pole. The El Mago Renegade is a personal favorite and retails for $17.50 alone! But that’s not the only cigar from El Mago; we also secured a VERY LIMITED drop from their S-tier, the El Mago Alakazam Habano! This is an unctuous, silky Habano limited to only certain retailers! I hope you enjoy this very special drop!

No. 1 – El Mago Renegade Robusto Extra 5.5×56 Box Pressed

PAIRING HINT – Sweeter Bourbon or elevated Tequila

•Wrapper Mexican San Andres Maduro
•Binder Nicaraguan Corojo
•Filler Nicaragua
•Blender MGE Cigars Factory in Estelí, Nicaragua

which translates to “The Wizard,” is the newest company to land here at OGT Cigars. I was on a mission to investigate this brand at the PCA Tradeshow, and they did not disappoint! While this Renegade is one of their more expensive cigars, it was the deciding factor! Smoking this made me realize that we had to bring them in! This full-bodied, balanced cigar is not only impressive on the palate but also on the retro! It’s a masterpiece, and I hope you enjoy it!”

No. 2 – S-Tier LIMITED El Mago Alakazam Habano Toro Extra 7×50

•Wrapper Ecuadorian Habano
•Binder Nicaragua
•Filler Nicaragua

“Limited Edition. The El Mago Alakazam is an extremely limited production. Nick Fusco, founder of El Mago cigars, believed in our membership so much that he wanted to help support it by making this beautiful 7×50 Habano available to all our OGT Variety Members! This is an expertly blended Ecuadorian Habano, I think you will find it very impressive!

No. 3 – Black Works Studio Rorschach Sumatra Toro 6×50

PAIRING HINT – Black Coffee or a lightly sweet Hot Capaccino

“What can I say? It’s a new release from Black Works Studio! Their famed Rorschach line just dropped in a 6×50 Toro, and in my opinion, it’s the best version! And between the Sumatra and Habano variations, I think the Sumatra is my favorite! This cigar delivers a rich complexity of notes and a smooth smoking experience. “I’m excited to add these new vitolas to the Core Line.  As a brand committed to continuous evolution and innovation, we strive to bring fresh experiences to our customers,” said James Brown, owner of BLTC/BKLWKS and partner at Fabrica Oveja Negra.”

“Limited Edition. In Ireland, to say “Fair Play” means “Well Done,” and that is exactly what this perfectly tri-colored barber pole is! This eye-catching cigar boasts three different wrappers: Connecticut, Maduro, and Candela! The result is a full-flavored, medium-bodied, mild-to-medium cigar that presents fantastic notes of light pepper, spice cake, baking spices, creaminess, wood, toasted nuts, and a light, pleasant sweetness.”
