The Oversized Cigar Trend
Thick cigars with heavy ring gauges is an undeniably growing trend. Love them or hate, them, big "grandes" are consistently named by cigar manufacturers as their best-selling sizes, beating out traditional cigars like Churchills, coronas and lonsdales. There are some respected, mainstream cigar companies that not only accept this trend, but embrace it by pushing the limits to 70, 80 and 90 ring gauges. Even beyond.
The Cohiba Story
Cohiba cigars from Cuba command the highest prices in the world, prices as high as $800 and up for a single cigar. Humidors bearing this name sell for the millions at Habanos auctions, and the brand is an international juggernaut. The story of Cohiba.
