Buying cigars online is easy. Buying cigars online that are actually worth smoking takes a little know-how. Here is what to check before you click “add to cart.”
Long filler vs. short filler: Long-filler cigars use whole tobacco leaves running the length of the cigar — they burn slower, draw better, and taste more complex. Short filler burns hot and harsh. Every Soles Cigars bundle is 100% long filler.
Know your wrapper: Connecticut (Ecuador) is smooth, creamy, mild. Habano (Ecuador) is sweet with a peppery kick. Maduro (San Andres, Mexico) is dark, rich, chocolatey. Cameroon (Africa) is spicy and distinctive.
Check the aging: Our filler is aged 3, 6, and 12 months depending on the blend — that patience is what separates a smooth smoke from a green, bitter one.
Do the bundle math: A bundle of 25 or 50 unbanded cigars skips the box, the bands, and the branding markup — you pay for tobacco, not packaging.
Buy from a maker, not a middleman: When you buy cigars online from Soles Cigars, you buy directly from the brand that rolls them in Esteli, Nicaragua.
