The month of December closes the year and brings with it the list of the best cigars: the 2024 AWARDS. Cigars in the 2024 awards have been selected over the past 12 months. The products with the highest scores in blind tastings and reviews were re-selected and retested in a new blind tasting. A particular focus is given to the latest releases recently introduced to the market.
Since the AWARDS launch, CigarsLover Magazine has always divided cigars into five categories: Cuba, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Nicaragua, and the Rest of the World (which includes all the remaining countries). This is to give the correct relevance to each producing country. For each terroir, the five best cigars that have had the highest scores in the tastings by delivering exceptional smokes will be chosen and named the best of 2024. The complete 2024 Awards will be published in CigarsLover Magazine Issue V – 2024, which will also include the TOP 50 list and the categories Best Brand, Best Boutique Cigars, and Best Boutique Brand.
Once the cigars have been unveiled, you will see the product’s description and the review by clicking on the images below.
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 were then tried again in a new blind tasting, which means not knowing what they were 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. In 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 in the main five categories, the Best Boutique Cigars, and Best Boutique Brand, this list will be published in CigarsLover Magazine #5 2024 issue.
