We’re not saying that you can’t smoke your favorite stick year-round, but there are certainly cigar blends that seem destined to complement the gray skies, falling leaves, and shorter days that arrive with the colder months. Whether you’re in a region that gets snowfall or your winters are more temperate, you might be on the lookout for a cigar to suit the season. But what makes a good fall cigar? We find out.
What Cigars Are Good to Smoke in the Fall?
Fall evokes images of orange leaves, roaring fires, and icy evenings. What could pair better with that setting than richer, dusky cigar notes with hints of spice and caramel? While we love the zesty, citrus notes in cigars, we feel that denser, bolder palettes are best suited to colder weather. Crux cigars provide options for all seasons; these are our top four picks for fall.
1. Crux du Connoisseur No. 2 Cigar
No matter if you’re smoking your cigar next to a roaring fire or outside on a cold evening, the Crux du Connoisseur blend will warm you from the inside out. Sophisticated notes of leather, espresso, and cedar elevate this stick to your perfect after-dinner smoke. Pair it with a glass of smooth red wine or whiskey; you’ll be happy summer is over.
