There's nothing 'everyday' about the best everyday cigars available to buy from Cigars.com. These smokes are top-shelf, offering premium handmade cigars often at less than $10 a stick. You can even get some of our best everyday cigars under $4 when you buy in bulk.
What makes an everyday cigar? It's not just a medium strength or smooth flavor profile — in fact, some of our picks here are complex and push into the fuller end of the flavor range.
No, an everyday cigar is one you will want to enjoy time and time again. These are the kinds of handmade cigars that are premium yet offer great value.
Buy in bulk to benefit from the best prices. At anywhere from under $4 to around ten bucks each, all of these are budget-friendly choices but still give you options when you want to spend as little as possible, or when you want to head for the premium cigar market and try something new from the most respected names in Nicaragua.
Just make sure there's room in your humidor - and if not, why not buy a new humidor that can accommodate even more of your favorite everyday smokes!
With lovingly hand-crafted humidors like the Valentino capable of holding 250 sticks in a Spanish cedar-lined, Brazilian rosewood box, there's no excuse for running out of space, or for running out of cigars.
With that said, let's take a look at some of the best cigars for everyday smoking, from some of the most respected boutique cigar studios producing for the current market, and blending vintage long-filler tobaccos grown on the famed farms of Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and others.
San Cristobal Elegancia
San Cristobal Elegancia are handmade cigars of Nicaraguan origin. Available in six vitolas, in singles and boxes of 25, they're the creation of the Don Pepin Garcia family and combine Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos with an Ecuadorian seed Connecticut wrapper.
The result is a rich and refined smoke that's one of the best everyday medium cigars on the market. A flavor profile of wood, leather, cream, cocoa, and spice excites the palate and at a shade over $6.50 per stick for the Corona, the value here is undeniable.
Arturo Fuente Magnum R
The Dominican Republic has some incredible boutique cigars to offer at equally incredible prices, and Arturo Fuente Magnum R is no exception. Dominican binder and filler tobaccos are wrapped in Ecuador Rosado leaves that produce a handmade cigar with an even burn line and solid white ash.
Cream, cocoa, and leather are on the palate once again, combined with cedar and sweetness for a medium strength, mellow body smoke that will suit novices and aficionados alike. Four vitolas are available in boxes of various sizes - the 44-stick Arturo Fuente Magnum R R44 offers great value at just over $7.50 each.
Foundation Highclere Castle Cigars
Foundation Highclere Castle Cigars come in not one blend, but two, named Edwardian and Victorian. Despite the British name, these sticks hail from Tabacalera AJ Fernandez in Esteli, Nicaragua, and contain vintage Criollo and Corojo long-filler tobaccos.
Edwardian is finished with a Brazilian binder and a golden Connecticut Shade wrapper, while Victorian has a Nicaraguan binder and Ecuador Habano wrapper. Priced from $225.00 for a box of 20 of the Petite Corona 5 x 42 vitola, you can afford to indulge in these luxurious premium cigars.
Tatuaje Tattoo
Tatuaje Tattoo holds the unique quality of offering some of the best everyday cigars under $4 each. That frankly awesome price is available when you buy Tatuaje Tattoo Needles, a 4.5 x 38 vitola available in ten packs of five sticks, a total of 50 cigars for just a few cents over $175.
If you prefer something fatter, go for the 6 x 50 Tatuaje Tattoo Universo which works out at about six bucks per smoke. Either way, this top-notch Nicaraguan cigar with Ecuador Habano wrapper holds some of the best value coming out of the infamous Don Pepin Garcia My Father Factory in the current market.
RoMa Craft Intemperance Whiskey Rebellion 1794
RoMa Craft Intemperance Whiskey Rebellion 1794 is a hand-crafted cigar again coming out of the prolific Nicaraguan market. This is no puro though, with a blend of Nicaraguan and Dominican Republic fillers, an Indonesian binder, and an Ecuador Habano wrapper that takes you on a world tour of flavors and aromas.
Earth, leather, dark roast coffee, rich caramel, and cabinet spices deliver full strength and full body, and with boxes of 24-30 priced at less than $200, you're looking at about $6-8 a stick for the trip of a lifetime.
Southern Draw 300 Hands
The first of two picks from one of the most popular boutique cigar brands of recent years, Southern Draw 300 Hands is named in honor of the number of people involved in its production, from growing the tobacco, to expertly hand-rolling each stick in Nicaragua, to delivering it to your door.
Various binders and wrappers mean there's plenty of choice in the line-up, from the golden-brown Southern Draw 300 Hands Connecticut Coloniales through to the deep umber of Southern Draw 300 Hands Maduro.
Southern Draw Firethorn
We love Southern Draw Firethorn. Medium body and medium-full strength are packed into a line of vitolas 5.5-6.5 inches in length with a 40-60 ring gauge. These are among the best everyday medium cigars you can buy, but they're not medium on two counts: quality and value, both of which are absolutely top-shelf.
Firethorn combines aged Nicaraguan long-filler tobaccos with a Mexican San Andres binder and Ecuadorian Habano Rosado wrapper, double fermented for maximum flavor. Speaking of flavor, there's a complex profile of cocoa, cinnamon, nuts, and caramel to enjoy — you won't want to smoke just one, and at prices under $200 for a box of 20, you can afford to reach for another.
All of the above are available to buy in singles or in bulk from Cigars.com (subject to availability of course — these popular picks often move fast when we get them in stock!).
So choose your new favorite today and re-stock your humidor with a month or more's supply of an out-of-the-ordinary 'everyday' cigar that will become your go-to smoke for years to come.
