Top Aromatic Cigars

[@warrenhall6577]

Watching the guys talk shop is the next best thing to firing up a good stick.

[@ckam7143]

What is talking shop. Is that a northerner saying.

[@warrenhall6577]

It’s a southern thing.

[@ThineMilkman]

@@ckam7143 talking shop refers to talking about ones job or "work".

[@tp5401]

You know that feeling you are talking about when smelling somebody else's cigar and you don't have one and how that sucks... Well you bastards do that to me everyday you drop one of these damned videos in the middle of a work day! Seriously... Have some compassion.

Smoking cigars or even my pipe for that matter is not just a relaxing experience but, an introspective one that allows me to plan, organize and think about things most important to me.

[@nazarenocosta5280]

I fell in love with the oliva melanio maduro smoke aroma

[@jefftougint6328]

That Maduro is an oil beast, smokes nicely.

@@joecantrell8516 ahah, thank you man!

[@colbyross23]

​@joecantrell8516 I picked one up yesterday along with some blends I've never had. Im torn between the Oliva which I love and trying out one of these new blends tonight.

[@hisnameisiam808]

How much was it?

[@vitalieBu]

I was thinking that smoking, or I should say enjoying a cigar versus smoking a cigarette....is totally different...the nicotine in the cigarette is creating the "addiction" vs in cigars....you're addiction is the relaxation, the conversation, the whole ritual of enjoying a cigar...is what makes you wanna repeat the experience! I'm glad that I got into this elegant way of spending time...and thank you Holt's Cigar Company for contribution ... you are doing it in stylish way!

[@lucazes9544]

You do still absorb nicotine through cigars forsure. The habituation and ritual is similar to cigarettes too, cigarettes have just been made tabboo in our society now and cigars aren't widely smoked so they fly under the radar

[@ruukusanla]

Been smoking cigars 3+ years now. Have 1 about every month or 2. It's a treat for me and taxes in Australia suck. I've never been craving or irate and sure everyone's different but I agree with the concept. Its not a vice by any means

[@nickstarlingch]

Nicotine's only about as addictive as caffeine. Cigarettes are generally full of a bunch of other stuff, but I definitely get more nicotine from my cigars than some people get from their daily cigarettes.

[@hisnameisiam808]

So true. Just fyi, nicotine does get into your system. I had a buzz not too long ago 😅

[@MFKR696]

Doesn't help that cigarettes taste like sadness

[@AngelosTsigkopoulos]

Greetings from Athens, Greece! Watching the video while smoking the Macanudo vintage maduro 2013, with a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper and the aroma is stunning! Another cigar with great aroma is the, My Father La Gran Oferta toro gordo.

[@robertkaiser5977]

Arturo Fuente Rare Pink has a excellent aroma. ❤

[@mr.kinard8853]

I'm coming to visit Holts in Jan!

[@waynes5807]

My top two aromatic cigars is the Nub Triple Roast and Dunbarton Stillwell Star 22. I really love the smell of both of those. I’ve gotten asked many times what I’m smoking when I enjoy one of those.

[@frost68nskate]

12:50 I don't get many flavor notes in the mouth, but while taking a drag and the smoke is coming off of the end, I can sometimes pick up a citrus, or chocolate or leather note on the smell of the cigar I'm smoking.

[@dstreet17]

The best aromatic cigars I've ever smoked are the Rose of Sharon and the Mayflower Dusk.

[@henryportes]

Was going to comment Rose of Sharon 👍

[@TheBusa09]

That 5:50 mark is spot on!

[@juasmith1]

One of your better videos. I get a lot of comments when I smoke the Fuente Chateau, sun grown or natural.

[@glentaylor9807]

I found a real hidden gem when I traveled to NOLA. The New Orleans cigar factory , Los Hermanos Tres hermanos is an excellent maduro. Tried it several times and have never been disappointed. Hope you guys review it someday. They need the publicity. Great quality at a great price.

[@SmokeIfYouGotEm]

I started smoking cigars just over a year ago. I quit smoking cigarettes just over 3mo ago. Quitting cigarettes has made the cigar experience so much better taste and smell wise.

[@klientastic]

WATCHING THIS VIDEO MAKES ME WANT ONE!!

[@ruukusanla]

Aston Cabernet for me had the most amazing honey and raw cashew aroma. Was brilliant. Sweetness was on the nose not the pallet.

[@jasonpaulmorris]

It might be just me but when someone smokes a My Father cigar I immediately know what it is. Unmistakable aroma!

[@ManMythIcon]

Wow when I visit you're establishment soon; your establishment will be the first in my lifetime of smoking that I will have been to that allows smoking IN the humidor

[@holtscigars]

Looking forward to your visit!

[@stevenpinheiro5957]

LFD Cabinet No. 6 torpedo, AF Casa Cuba, Ferio Tego Elegancia, Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real some of my favorites. Aromas are like tastes, personal to smoker. Concur with the selections in this video as well. Missed Perdomo 10th Anniversary Maduro and Padróns I am also guilty as charged with smoking to the nubs.

[@stevenpinheiro5957]

Missed Perdomo 10th Anniversary Maduro. To these gentlemen’s point, I am a nubber, so guilty as charged. I am going to take my time well spent to the limit.

[@markperkins9445]

I get some comments from time to time when I smoke my favorite stick, the Aging Room Quatro. Such a great smoke, I'm glad it does not offend most of those around me.

[@countrycorner9337]

I’m from NY, but live on the west coast. You guys remind me of home, your sense of humor, the way you interact, the accents… the vibes. You guys are great. 🙏🏼❤

[@brentgeorge2114]

I love this channel and appreciate every episode. I order most of my cigars from Holts and the service is impeccable! That being said, with regards to this subject I have to say to the other viewers that Dunbarton’s Stillwell Star No. 1 is the most amazing cigar I personally have ever had when talking about the “aroma.” My garage doubles as my cigar lounge. When enjoying one of these I actually put the doors down. Thanks for your channel!

[@holtscigars]

Thank you for your support!

[@panchogeorocks]

Started watching this and I'm smoking the same stick as Faccia! Indeed, a very aromatic cigar and have gotten told while smoking the original blend San Cristobal! Recently bought the 5 pack San Cristobal fresh pack from Holts. Cheers 🔥 💨

[@KrisKrieg1]

My wife definitely prefers when I smoke Maduro cigars, in particular the Nica Libre Potencia and HC Black Maduro. She says she gets a great peanut butter and chocolate scent off of those.

[@Caroline-h9m]

Anthony Micali looks so handsome with a beard. You guys are really charismatic with all these suits, ties, and cigars.

[@CowboyKaratedjv]

There is something about the Nica Rustica, when ever I smoke it the wife says wow that smells amazing 😊

[@vzjtothalo1]

I enjoy a lot of them. Had and have coworkers who smoke the newly legal stuff in NJ and they think cigars stink...just wow.

[@holtscigars]

Meanwhile we can smell their aroma all the way from Philly 😂

[@dybcar]

Recently my buddy and I smoked Montecristo 2000 Special Edition. What an amazing cigar! Very dark Oscuro wrapper, but medium, really mellow in strength. Very, very deep, rich and pleasant flavors like dark chocolate, dark roast coffee,l and walnut. One of these cigars that look like a power punch, but turns out very mellow.

[@shorty1103]

I love this channel. Im a woman and im gonna start getting into cigars and just tryna digest as much info as possible.

[@holtscigars]

You're in the right place, welcome!

[@chrismorin1047]

I have had the same experience. Smell a cigar and curse yourself for not having one. So I had a custom insert made for my bag. If there is a chance I’ll get to smoke a cigar, I always have one with me. And I’ll bring an extra just in case someone asks and they want one too. I’m happy to share. Invariably, I get compliments on the aroma whenever I am smiling one.

[@JoeSmith-pm8is]

Every Friday when I walk into my local cigar shop the aroma just calms me down

[@jimzielanski8045]

My grand father lived on Marple Street in Northeast Philly and worked at the Philadelphia Navy Yard and I remember going to their house in the late fifties and sixties. He was a pipe smoker ( prince albert) and a tobacco chewer ( mail pouch ) and a cigar smoker , mostly Phillies and although in those days you "could" smoke in the house, those hot summer nights he was out on the porch burning a Philly visiting with the neighbor ( they lived in row houses with a shared porch ) and that pipe and cigar smell was delightful ! I am sure his cigar cost about a nickel or a dime and would be appalled that one of his grandsons ( me ) has spent over $100 on a cigar ! These days I don't smoke in the house ( at least here ) but rather outside or on the porch weather providing. For the first time EVER in 20 years a couple of months ago my wife commented on "that cigar smells good' ! Wow!!!!! , this is from a non- smoker, what cigar was it? It was a Davidoff Royal Series original robusto ! The cigar was wonderful but her comment made the price ( $ 75.00 ) justified ! Keep up the good work and best regards from Montana USA , JZ

[@nicklemere8524]

One of my favorite cigars that I feel has great aroma, is the Alec Bradley Prensado.

[@samsam18200]

True, my wife hates the smell of almost every cigar, but she always likes that one and a few others.

[@joecantrell8516]

great video guys . I pick the guitar a bit . It relaxes me as cigars do .Does anyone play that guitar I see in the background ?

[@holtscigars]

Playing music can definitely be relaxing!! A few of the guys behind the scenes play, so it's nice to have a guitar around for when there's a bit of down time.

[@Train2Liv]

14:10 Since, recently getting back into smoking cigars, I’ve wondered if aficionados appreciate other forms of leaf products! 😂

[@deleon_bbq_and_salsa]

Great segment.. my wife doesn’t smoke but there have been a few times she likes the smell.. going to have to start paying attention a bit more lol.. thank for the vid!!! 🙏🏼🔥🔥

[@Yeradumis420]

Was out on the east coast a couple weeks ago and had to visit Holts. Wasn’t disappointed. What a great place. I waked in and was greeted by 3 great Tobacconist. Told them I was from Illinois and one piped up and said”what the fuck you doin here?”😂 Just my kind place! Didn’t get to meet these two fine gentleman because they were upstairs filming the Halloween video. Maybe next time. I did enjoy a fine cigar in the beautiful cigar lounge before I left. What a great atmosphere this place has. Wish I lived closer so I could stop by and enjoy this place more often. Maybe I’ll make my way out there again when the new place opens.

[@ds82strong]

Aganorsa leaf has 3 or 4 cigars that have aroma that makes my mouth water. Jaime Garcia by my father also

Just bought a box of the La Fermentada from Cigars Daily and their collaboration with Oliva. Should be good.

[@franklinwilliams1772]

When I saw this tittle i was expecting to see you talking about Deadwood or some other flavored cigar. I have had that same experience where someone will come up and say that cigar smell nice.

[@wsmith580]

Other aromatic cigars: Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne Montecristo White Series Joya De Nicaragua Cabinetta

[@ogkushbreath8607]

Im a pipe, cigar, and legal herb smoker, going through 8-10 cigars a month, and probably 90 bowls of pipe tobacco. As a tobacco lover, I appreciate both cigars and pipe tobacco flavors more because I experience a wider array of flavors and types. Imo. Just finished an Oliva M Monticello from your cigar of the month club. Exquisite cigar! Really loving the Nicaraguan tobacco recently. On a pipe tobacco note, HU Tobacco from Germany recently released their products in the USA, and if you love flavor, and amazing tobacco, HU is a no brainer. We pipe smokers call the aroma “room note” when addressing a tobacco’s smell indoors. Would love an infused cigar vid from Holt’s, if that’s something you guys smoke. Appreciate the vids and info. And the great cigars in Holt’s cigar of the month club! ❤

[@gailsack2635]

I gave my brother in law a Rocky Decade. As he was smoking it I thought, wow that smells decadent!!!

[@aaront1156]

Great video! More like this one, please.

[@Jakoebchen]

Hops is related to cannabis, which is why beer can smell like that (especially strong dry hopped ones).

[@leatherneckprepper4477]

I had my very first Davidoff this week. It was the same one you were smoking. I enjoyed it so much in my latest order from Holts I got another. I was a little nervous when I first purchased it because of the price. I’m always scared when I pay that much if I like it or not. the San Cristobal reminds me a lot of the La Roma de Cuba which I enjoy very much, especially the Mi amor.

[@anthonydean1141]

Im new to the cigar thing ive never smoked one but i know a few people who do and i would like to try it what would you suggest i know i like the more sweet flavors what would you suggest to pair with a rum drink?

[@m1p84]

When I was a kid, I always loved the smell of the tobacco isle at the grocery store. Remember that isle?

100% agree I smell other people's cigar than mines.

[@Justin.Stanfill]

I get that question the most when I'm smoking the Jacob's Ladder from Southern Draw

[@jaafara4169]

How do you deal with body and clothes odor after smoking a cigar? My hands and clothes smell very strongly of smoke when I've had a cigar. It doesn't matter whether I smoke outside or inside, in well-ventilated or poorly ventilated places. I also wash my hands in between and rinse my mouth. And the taste stays in my mouth for hours despite drinking and brushing my teeth... Do you have a solution for this or is it simply unavoidable? )

[@tp5401]

I love the smell on my hands and clothes after I've smoked a good cigar! I wouldn't go to work that way but just being around the house I love it. The taste in the mouth thing is something you will prob get used to and eventually never notice again. That's my experience anyway.

[@oranpf]

Room notes vary less, and smoking overshadows it, but if you cultivated a connoisseurship in it, you would find some more descriptive notes. To me, maduro room notes smells more musky compared to the sweeter aroma of lighter wrappers (which is ironic because I usually get sweeter notes from smoking marudos). Also, the hops used in beer definitely smell like cannabis. Go to a home brewing store and smell some to see how dramatic the similarity is. I can't say I've ever smelled that degree of similarity from cigars beyond a vague "herbal" note that could just as well be cilantro or sage.

[@sylvesterv1558]

My friend complimented me on the aroma of the Oliva V 135th Anniversary.

[@gailsack2635]

I offered a fair goer a cigar. He couldn’t find the cigar stand. I gave him diesel unlimited. It was an unspoken brotherhood.

[@RealDealy]

@2:19 That's the nicotine activating your parasympathetic nervous system which is one of the reasons why I think tobacco is associated with long life. Not cigarettes though, that's different, and activate you sympathetic nervous system too much cause you inhale a lot of the nicotine instead of a slow absorption which is more controlled, it just takes longer to feel the effects vs cigarettes, and less of a rush Having a cigar after a drink/ puffing some herb will feel good cause they enhance each other. Why you think you always see Shamans with a cigar, they are using it to stay in a certain frequency!

[@codyfaurie6203]

I love listing to yall talk shop, you should consider doing a cross over episode with the "lounge lizards" podcast guys yall would be great together. I believe they are near by yall, hour and a half drive to New Jersey to the Ten86 👀

What i want to know is how you don't become "nose blind" working in an around cigars all day??? Or do you, going in and out of a humidor, being around people smoking, how do you combat that??

[@anthonymazzola4470]

At times we do become nose blind.

[@gianfrancostellini4526]

Why is it that one can smell a different aroma, from someone else’s is cigar? I agree 100% that it happens. My top 4 that I get comments from non smokers are the Davidoff Ann., the San Cristobal Quintessence, Rocky Patel 1999 and the EPC New Wave. I only smoke the EPC New Wave at the beach for this very reason. Strangely enough on many occasions people ask me if I am smoking a vanilla infused cigar, but I never get that tasting note from smoking it.

[@shorty1103]

What we taste and what we smell often times dont correlate. Tobacco and Marijuana both have a distinctive taste bcuz it's a plant at the end of the day but the smell and the actual smoke trigger our brains to find a familiar flavor.

[@jefftougint6328]

How many cigars do you guys smoke on average per week? I stick to about 1 every week or 2 weeks.

[@geckosalaplancha8286]

I have been smoking tatuaje cigars and they have become my favorite. What are your thoughts on this brand? Also I can’t seem to find any of the brands u recommended

[@holtscigars]

Tatuaje makes great cigars, we love them! They're also made by the My Father factory 🔥

[@snail415]

I challenge you guys to really try and describe room notes. If you can rattle-off tasting notes, accounting for the sense of smell should be within reach. For example, with that Davidoff, I always think buttermilk pancakes and a western boot store all-at-once. I know I’m right! 😂

[@holtscigars]

can't beat that 😂
