With so many cigar brands out there and so many types under each brand, it can be really hard to know where to start or what to explore, especially since you’d have to essentially buy full packs just to test things out. Luckily, Cigaro has a great 10-pack sampler that will give you a lot of options to consider from some of the best cigar brands on the market. While this sampler bundle usually goes for $65, Cigora has discounted it quite heavily down to just $40, coming out to $4 per cigar, so it’s well worth grabbing if you want to try a bit of everything.

Why you should buy the Big Brand Sampler

While there are a lot of options in here, and it would be hard to go over all of them, there are a few standouts that are worth mentioning. For example, Macanudo Cafe and the Montecristo White Label are two really great mild options for those who don’t enjoy the fuller profile of some other options. Both cigars are also made by some of the oldest makers out there, one from Cuba and one from Guatemala; they’re both classic smokes if you want something a bit more traditional.

Another interesting couple of options are the Cohiba Red Dot and the Drew Estate Undercrown Maduro, both relatively legendary cigars, with medium profiles that are great all-around smokes. They are both sweet, while the Red Dot provides creamer notes, and the Undercrown offers a bit more earthy tones, both of which are really enjoyable to experience. Finally, the Buffalo Trace Cigar is a great option if you want a cigar to pair with a bourbon, and with a full profile, it’s quite perfect for that job.

All in all, the Big Brand Sampler has an excellent selection from across the brands that anybody should enjoy. It’s also pretty great if you’ve been wanting to expand your horizons for a while and don’t know where to start, and with the discount that brings it down to just $40, it’s hard to argue against in terms of value.

Remember no boxes? Get this cigar gift instead and save for Black Friday
Nondescript cigar bundles for when were cigars invented.

You may remember that recently I talked about not buying cigar boxes as gifts. I stand by that for a few reasons. The biggest is that they can be expensive, even on sale, and a box includes a lot more cigars than a sampler or small bundle. That means, if you pick wrong, and it can happen, many of those cigars won't be enjoyed the way you'd want. Instead, it's best to go with a smaller sampler of five to ten cigars max. You'll still need to do a bit of research and find out what your cigar person likes to smoke. But a sampler gives them a bigger variety and you more chances to earn a hit.

Just to provide you an example, this five-cigar sampler with is only $47, normally $55. Or, the is only $77, normally $85. Each pack includes five different cigars, the perfect cigar gift. Head on over to Famous Smoke Shop to check out their big sampler sale for Black Friday and you're sure to find something in there.
