The two parent wrapper colors that you have to choose from are Natural (EMS) and Maduro.

Natural are light (typically refers to any wrapper that isn’t a maduro).

Maduro are dark (undergone a meticulous natural fermentation to achieve varying degrees of the lustrous, dark brown color and rich, often sweet, flavor for which they’re known).

Here are some of the common wrappers by category:

Natural (EMS)

  • Connecticut
  • Corojo
  • Habano
  • Sumatra

Maduro

  • Cameroon
  • Candela
  • Broadleaf
  • Corojo

Price is an important consideration for cigars, especially if you smoke daily. Our tool let’s you choose the best cigar for you based on price. These are the options you get to choose from:
  • Under $6/cigar
  • Under $8/cigar
  • Under $11/cigar
  • Under $20/cigar
  • Price doesn’t matter
Keep in mind that just because you select “Under $20/cigar”, it doesn’t mean you will be recommended one that is between $11 and $20. In some cases, you’ll get recommended at cigar under $8 if it’s the best cigar for your other choices. Picking an upper limit for price, doesn’t mean you will get recommended a cigar with a price at the upper limit.
