After a delay in delivery, at the beginning of 2022, the first boxes of the Linea de Oro reached markets worldwide. This release underlines the choice of Habanos SA to carve out a super premium segment within the portfolio of their global brands. A smoke that boasts a respectable evolution, an unparalleled creaminess on the palate, and a flavor intensity that increases puff after puff. The finish is noteworthy.
The Hidalgos offers a very complex and satisfying smoke. It delivers aromas of aged wood, white pepper, and roasted coffee beans. In the second half, it becomes slightly spicier on the palate with an evolution that brings notes of leather and walnut to the flavor profile.

HOW ARE THE AWARDS MADE?
Those who scored the highest among the cigars tested during the year in blind tastings and reviews get re-selected. These products are then tested once again in a new blind tasting, which means not knowing what they are during the tasting. The test results are then compared, and the TOP 5 are created.
Since 2015, CigarsLover Magazine has focused on terroirs in order to give the right space to all the producing countries. From 2018, the TOP 5 were paired with the TOP 50, which lists the 50 best cigars without distinction of origin. Together with the Best Brands, the Best Buy, and the best Boutique Brands, this list will be published in CigarsLover Magazine issue #5.
