Best Cigars to Smoke While Watching a Baseball Game
Watching a baseball game with a cigar in your mouth was a common occurrence years ago. Today, you’re unlikely to get away with enjoying a cigar at an actual ballpark. But that doesn’t mean you can’t take in a baseball game on the flat screen from the comfort of your man cave or your local cigar lounge. With the length of a game averaging three hours, you’ll need a lot of cigar to last until the final inning. Here are the best cigars to smoke while you’re watching a baseball game.
#1 - Ashton Cabinet Selection #1 (9 x 52)
Ashton Cabinet Selection is a supreme cigar to enjoy during a baseball game. The extended 9-inch dimensions are crafted in a cool-burning 52 ring gauge to deliver a rich and creamy profile of cedar, cashews, and spices with a touch of sweetness. Legendary cigar-maker Carlito Fuente has been blending Ashton Cabinet for over thirty years from premium aged Dominican long-fillers and a glistening Connecticut Shade wrapper leaf. The luscious Perfecto lasts for an hour and a half.
#2 - Arturo Fuente Hemingway Masterpiece (9 x 52)
The 94-rated Arturo Fuente Hemingway has been one of the most popular Dominican cigars since its debut in the 1970s. The Perfecto-shaped series includes a 9 x 52 format appropriately called Masterpiece. An aged Cameroon wrapper leaf embraces a sumptuous blend of premium Dominican binder and filler tobaccos. Get through more than few innings with an approachable profile of coffee beans, cedar, baking spices, and black pepper with a long and lush finish.
#3 - La Aroma de Cuba El Jefe (7 x 58)
Award-winning cigar-maker Jose ‘Pepin’ Garcia blends a magnificent amalgam of vintage Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos beneath a succulent Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper in a beefy 7 x 58 shape. Tasting notes of hickory, pepper, cedar, leather, and smoked almonds emerge in a medium-bodied profile you can easily enjoy with a sip of bourbon or an ice-cold beer while your team is rounding the bases.
#4 - Padrón 1964 Anniversary No. 4 (6.5 x 60)
Savor the top-rated taste of Padrón 1964 Anniversary in a size that burns slower thanks to its thick ring gauge, the 6.5-by-60 No. 4. The all-Nicaraguan blend is handcrafted from a premium recipe of well-aged binder, filler, and wrapper tobaccos. A medium to full-bodied profile of cedar, cocoa, cayenne, molasses, and baking spices satisfies over the course of an hour and a half in a delicious, soft box-pressed format. For a sweeter finish, this 97-rated blend is also available in a Maduro wrapper.
#5 - Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne Churchill (7 x 54)
Among the most popular Perdomo cigars ever created, Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne is handcrafted in a thick Churchill with 7 x 54 dimensions. An Ecuador Connecticut wrapper leaf hugs a balanced blend of Nicaraguan long-fillers. Notes of nuts, white pepper, wood, and spices arrive in a cool-burning cigar you can puff on for more than an hour.
