The Best Mild Cigar
30 August, 2024
The New Wave is the best in class for mild cigars. It never disappoints and is the perfect cigar with that first cup of coffee in the morning! The only thing better is the New Wave Reserva – which I hope returns.

New Wave Robusto

A delicious mild to medium cigar, warm toasty notes accompany a nice creamy sweetness, all with a subtle undertone of cedar. One of my favorites blends from Mr. Carillo, and one of my favorite Connecticuts to smoke.
