The full Top 20 Cigars of 2025 list is now live.

After a full year of smoking, debating, revisiting, and second-guessing, every spot is locked in*.

*Yeah, it’s a lot of work…but we do it all for you :) 

This year proved more challenging than some… especially the higher up on the list you got.

All twenty cigars have been revealed, ranked, and published. This list reflects real smoking over time, not quick impressions or hype cycles. Some picks will feel familiar. A few will surprise you. That is the point.

You can view the complete Top 20 of 2025 here.

If you are looking for something broader, the Essential 30 is still running year-round.

That list is NOT a snapshot of one year. It evolves as cigars earn their place through consistency, availability, and long-term performance. New cigars can enter. Others can fall off. Nothing is permanent.

These are the cigars that stand the test of time…and should be in your humidor.

Explore the Essential 30 here.

Whether you are chasing the best cigars of this year or building a long term rotation, both lists are designed to help you smoke better with less guesswork.
