Cigar Aficionado Alert: 15 Cigars Under US$8

Cigar Aficionado just published a Cigar Alert – 15 Cigars Under US$8.

From Cigar Aficionado:

Labor Day Weekend is upon us and everyone is gearing up for barbecues, cocktails and the joy of seeing more of friends and family. While gathered around the grill or the firepit, it’s the perfect time to also break open the cigar boxes.

Cigars are often called the affordable luxury as of course, price is not always indicative of quality as we know well at Cigar Aficionado. Here is a list we have compiled of 15 quality cigars that scored 88 points or higher in our blind taste tests, and each one is no more expensive than a beer at the bar.

This is what Cigar Aficionado said about Oliva Serie V No. 4:

This short and slender cigar from Oliva’s signature Serie V line has an open draw and even combustion. Despite its diminutive size, this Nicaraguan puro gives off medium-to-full-bodied smoke that is earthy and spicy full of walnut, espresso bean and briny olives. A black pepper spiciness lingers onto the finish.
