Big Sky Cigars are one of the newer kids on the block, but they have something special to offer. Originating from Montana, the brand has a unique flare about them. Not least of which is the limited, not so limited, production Cryptid. This is the first installment in a series of ‘Cryptids’ says part owner […]
The newest line to hit the market from Aganorsa Leaf is being sent out now, the Aganorsa Rare Leaf Maduro. Much like its original Natural version, the Rare Leaf Maduro is available to select Aganorsa accounts only. Featuring a silky San Andres wrapper, the makeup of the Maduro is similar to the original.

Throughout the year, Black Label Trading Company and Black Works Studio produce around four limited edition cigars, usually released every quarter. These are special cigars that owner and blender James Brown has crafted especially for the season, to re-invigorate excitement in the brand, and in some cases, short runs due to the scarcity of tobacco.

In fact, before opening Oak Glen Tobacconist, Foundation Cigar Company was always one of my favorite brands I had stocked in my personal humidor.
