Boss of the Block is a collaborative project between the Graycliff Cigar Company and musical artist P La Cangri. The tobacco roots run deep in Cangri’s Cuban background. Her grandmother, who taught her about tobacco, was a master cigar roller from Holguin, Cuba. It delivers a rich smoke, with a remarkable aromatic depth.
It releases notes of dark chocolate, with a hint of white pepper in the background. The cigar is then enriched with vegetal and earthy aromas, together with exotic spices. In the last third, it turns to rich leather and coffee beans with a vegetal touch.

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.
