Maduro is my favorite wrapper. I tend to gravitate more toward sweet tasting notes like chocolate and creaminess and that's what I get from maduro-wrapped cigars.
Moi aussi
I’m with you on that. Undercrown Maduro is a top favorite. Sun grown is another wrapper that I’m partial too.
As my top choice I very much agree with you. If you haven’t tried the EP Carrillo La Historia, you’re in for a treat. One of the most unique cigars I’ve ever had, the Mexican wrapper is next level. Cheers!
Man anyone watch these videos and automatically start writing down the names of the cigars in your notes to pick ‘em up the same week???? 😅😅😅
Love the content always
Bravo! Holt's sells cigars. What a coincidence. LOL
Bro I do exactly this. About a month into smoking cigars, just getting his suggestions, winners every.single.time.
@@brianedwards5071 that was me bro your on a great route ! You’ll for sure learn something dope on Holts. For sure try some drew estate cigars, AJ Fernandez cigars, and For sure Espinosa
Yep I do!
Never had a maduro that I liked . That’s why the only cigar that matters is the one you like . Natural medium bodied is my go to
Well said, taste is personal 🙌
Watching him light a cigar is so satisfying!
I'm glad I watched this video. I've found myself avoiding Maduro because I like a mild to medium strength smoke, and just assumed the darker wrapper meant a punchy nicotine experience. I'll have to try some, thank you!
Padron Anniversary is one of my absolute favorite cigars ever. In any wrapper. I love them all!
Have one in my humidor, gonna bring in the New Year with it👍👍👍
Agree !
I have a box on those in my humidor! My absolute favorite cigar
Broadleaf is gold to my palate!
My favorite full body cigar is the La Aroma de Cuba Reserva Maximo. Box pressed with a Mexican Cuban seed obscuro wrapper.
The only problem is I enjoy it so much that I tend to smoke it too quickly and make myself feel sick.
I love Maduro wrappers. I also love rich, strong and powerful cigars.
I appreciate you making these videos
Great video.
I agree 100%. Been enjoying cigars for decades now and can say wrapper leaf is where most of the flavours come from, but also to your point, you do need the binder and filler leaves to round it out and aid in flavour and aroma transitions.
My fav wrapper leaf is the Aromatica Doninicana, which is a proprietary wrapper leaf Davidoff uses exclusively on the Royal Release. By the way, would LOVE to see you review my fav cigar. The Royal Release Robusto.
I’m also a big fan of West African used on the Don Carlos No. 2.
🤙🏽
Maduro for me all the way. I definitely gravitate toward the sweeter and more complex notes the Maduro’s provide. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy switching things up which is why I carry a wide variety of wrappers in my humidor.
Thanks Mazz!! I’ll be Picking up those Ashtons this week to test over the weekend. Happy Holidays brother!
Great choice in cigars! Can’t go wrong with any of them.
I enjoy both but lean more towards Maduro's!
Great info! Always learn a lot from your videos, thank you!
Great video! The Ashton Aged Maduro is one of my all time favorite sticks! Super smooth and rounded flavor profile with one of the best natural sweetness I've had. I will have to try the others mentioned now to compare!
This one was great. Thank you.
Very good explanation. Thank you.
Maduro is magic.
thats a great and simple explanation
Merry Christmas! Great information provided in this video. I had to Lear that the look of the cigar, the color of the wrapper, did not always indicate the power of said cigar. I have really enjoyed the Ashton Maduro and the flavor profile that it provides during the smoking experience. Thank you again for all you do for the Cigar Lifestyle Community! Wishing you a blessed New year!
You have such a massive vocabulary and I didn't understand much. 😅 But I did learn Natural is a lighter wrap & Maduro is Spanish for Mature/ripe and is darker.
Mazz at it again with some incredible content. I definitely prefer maduro wrappers (especially Padron 1964 and 1926) because I do prefer some of those more chocolatey, cocoa, and at times coffee notes from the wrapper. Thanks again for another great video. Cheers
Ashtons aren't my favorite, and I rarely buy them, but I recommend both as good starting points for beginners who maybe aren't sure if they like cigars and/or people wary of maduros. Aside from being approachable, they are amazingly consistent. I would pick a Padron for myself any day, and people have different tastes, but I can't imagine anyone who likes cigars not liking at least one if not both of those Ashton standards.
I started with swisher sweets at first, but recently tried a brick house maduro and churchill. I couldn’t believe how much of a difference there is between cigars. I really love maduro wrappers. That mellow smoothness really is nice for my bi-weekly relaxation cigar.
Just took delivery of 5 Perdomo 10th Anniversary and 5 RP Vintage 1992. The RP I really like, the Perdomos I bought on your recommendation.
Looking forward to trying them. I'm normally a Maduro kind of guy so will be interesting.
Another great review Anthony with loads of info.. thank you. 👍
Fantastic analysis
Very well explained! I can agree for the Ashton and also the Padron! I’ll definitely pick up and try some more cigars in my upcoming vacation! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Great video. I tried both Ashtons. Enjoyed both but prefer the aged maduro over the classic.
Another great informative show.
Glad you enjoyed it
Im here to learn..i dig! 😉 thnx bub✌
My two favorite cigars the arturo Fuente Hemingway and 1964 pardon. I prefer both in the natural wrapper 😊
Great video. I was wondering if you can do a video on round cigars vs press box cigars?
When I got into cigars I was skeptical about trying Maduro cigars as they looked imposing like Anthony said. However, when I tried the Ashton aged Maduro I thought to myself “Why was I so afraid?” It has now become one of my all time favorite cigars to smoke when I’m looking for a rich flavor profile. Also amazing video. Can we get a tour of the Studio one day?
Time to step into the darkness and try a 1926 Maduro or Liga No 9.
@@oranpf I’ve had that one too. It’s super good. The 1926 Maduro
Both can be exceptional; both can be wanting and everything in between.
Great vid as usual. Love your examples. AF maduro is a fav. Ashton are great, but too pricey for everday. The 8 5 8 maduro is a go to flavor bomb at great value. Thanks Anthony...when I grow up I wanna be you.
Widow Jane great 10yrs layered whiskey, can also recommend a Knob Creek 9 yrs. Both great to go with almost any kind of cigar. 😊
You are my cigar idol !! What did you smoke for your Christmas Cigar? I had a Hoyo de Monterrey Illusions of Excalibur 🗡 with a year of age on it. Excellent
As always, great review. Mazz, any suggestions on a good V cutter?
Lotus Jaws and Xikar VX2 are great options
Leather Rose , underrated and hated on imo , perfect blend of sweet n spicy
One of the few people that knows what he talking about he's good with me
I am 33 and looking into maybe getting into cigars I have never smoked anything before but the idea of what a cigar stands for and the complexities that go with cigars seems amazing.
What would you recommend for a first cigar? I don't really enjoy spicey food I lean towards sweet and most likely not a strong one
Look up our video titled Top 10 Cigars for Beginners 👊
Right on FOR INFO.....
I love your videos
Glad to hear it, thank you 🙏
When you light your cigar, are puffing or blowing it?
Thank you ❤
Cigar sensei. 👍🐊😎
1964 in mad. hits different
Hemmingway is excellent. So easy to light and i find it can be smoked down further than most others; it never accumulates too much tar.
Also, others cigar smokers, do you find your pallet evolves without converging onto a final favorite, or does it converge into a flavor profile represented by a relatively narrow range of cigars?
Ive only been smoking for a few months and for a while i swore on Olive serie O, then i found the La arome di Cuba Mi Amore irresistible, then the Hemmingways and now i can hardly smoke anything except a padron, preferably 1926 but most acceptaby a 1964 or more regularly Oliva serie V melanio maduro.
Cheers ladies and gents.
I like the occasional Maduro. Smoke almost exclusively conneticut shade
Found your site! You’ll be seeing a nice order to Meadowview Virginia here very soon!
Thank you for the support!
Which cigar would you recommend to some one that’s just getting into smoking cigars?
Ashton Classic, Oliva Connecticut, Perdomo Champagne just for a few. We also have a video on Top Cigars for Beginners if you want to check that out 👊
My first Maduro last year, it was an A.Fuente somehow I didn’t like, and tried months later same thing happened, I’ll stick with Connecticuts.
My favorite rapper is Cameroon
My every day smokes are just Padron
But I really really really love the 1964 diplomatico maduro. That’s my favorite cigar.
Maduro all the way. My humidor never sees light coloured wrapped Cigars. The flavours and they just look beautiful.
I like candelas because they’re uncommon. But I’ll take all of the above!
What is the name of that lighter?
Im still working on my tasting notes, any tips?
Let it come to you naturally. Most times when I smoke a cigar I’m not overly concerned with specific tasting notes. Just enjoy the experience & flavor notes will come to you.
I find Madurai cigars often one dimensional, I like the complex flavors of Sungrown and Cameroon best.
I'm in my 50's now and brand new to cigars, I have got a long way to go to becoming familiar with them. Have not had my first one yet. There is no one in Australia reviewing cigar content that I know of.
Glad to have you with us on your journey!
Friends of Habanos FOH cigar forum is an Australian site & channel
@@alastairkissoon1921 thank you
Padron 1964 Maduro es my go to
I exclusively almost smoke only Maduro wrap... but will smoke all cigars
What lighter are you using in this video?
ST Dupont Defi Extreme 🔥🔥🔥
I smoke both at the same time.
One in each nostril?
@@revolvermaster4939 How else?
@@homie-gtv322 THAT’S A MAN!
Tell me about a cigar wrapped in cedar what’s the purpose?
Check out our video "Why Are Cigars Wrapped In Cedar?"
I turned 31 in February. I mention my age because it’s time to man up. I have been satisfied with everything you recommended. Your expertise and suggestions have helped me so tremendously. Thank you. You added another huge fan!
How did he get to come out his nose with out inhaling? Or can you inhale ? I thought you could not .
Correct, you should not inhale premium cigars. That is called a "retrohale" and we have several videos on how to do it you can check out 👊
@@holtscigars thank you for your response ! And will do !
hey your awesome bro hope you had a merry christmas
and asking for everyone’s curiosity. What cigars did you smoke for Christmas day?
I smoked a La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor Belicoso 😉
CIGARS 101 ❤
Perfect subject to upset old men with.
Depends on the brand to me. Arturo Fuente Maduro are great. Padron Maduro is way too strong for my pallet I find. To each their own I guess. Stay smoke my fellow Aficionados
🟫🟥🟫🟫🟫🟫💨💨💨
Maduro for me 100%. Way more flavorable.
Don’t be afraid of the dark !
💯
I’m a Nicaraguan Habano kinda guy.
That dude from cloudy with a chance of meat balls
Would you send me a cigar? I smoke but all I can afford is cheap smokes.. I just want a quality cigar
How much does Ashton pay him for his recommendations
For me ashton maduro is terrible, but basic Arturo is on another level
Taste is personal 👍
Here's an idea no one has tried: package those same cigars that have the different wrappers together, so the customers can see that. Yes doing this is easy for you, you own a cigar store, but that's not realistic for the customers who 1- can't know which cigars are sibling cigars, 2- don't wish to buy 40 or 50 cigars just to try something on a whim, BUT bundled paired cigars together... would be great.
Hey HOLTS ! What happened to the 6packs ?! Seems like a crappy business decision on your end.
I think you vastly overrate the effect of the wrapper on flavour. It's but 1% of the overalll cigar's volume. IMHO, its mostly just optics.
I'm sorry but this video is way too sexy. The music, the visuals, and Anthony describing these cigars is peak production. 🤌🤌
Appreciate that 👊🔥
