This Cinco Décadas was released back in 2018 to celebrate the brand’s 50th anniversary. The cigar name is chosen as an homage to the next generation of the company. The cigars are sold in 10-count boxes, and they recently hit the market. The El Cumiche delivers a perfectly balanced, flavorful, and complex smoke.
It brings to the palate aromas of leather, herbs, and spices, with the white pepper standing out. Hazelnut and balsamic notes follow. In the finale, a rich black pepper flavor ends the smoke.

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.
