At the end of 2014, Habanos SA announced the release of a new line, called Añejados (“aged”). This is due to the period of refinement to which these cigars are subjected, matured within the boxes from five to eight years before being marketed. More refined compared to the regular edition, it exhibits a great complexity and a wider flavor profile.
It delivers notes of cocoa and hazelnut, enriched by white pepper, that gets more and more pronounced. Then cinnamon and vegetal hints. In the end, walnut and hazelnut, together with hot spices and balsamic herbs.

HOW ARE THE AWARDS MADE?
Among the cigars tested during the year in blind tastings and reviews, those that scored the best score get re-selected. These products were 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 made.
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. This list, together with the Best Brands, the Best Buy and the Best Boutique Brands, will be published in Winter 2019 issue of CigarsLover Magazine.
