Halfwheel's Top 25 Cigars 2025

[JohnS]

The Top 25 Cigars of 2025 according to Halfwheel has been released this week. As has been mentioned on their site (and our forum), they haven't had access to Habanos cigars in the last 12 months so there are no Cubans in the list. It's interesting to note that they included both the Maduro and Natural versions of the Padron A Hammer & A Dream cigars in the Top 3 and there are also two Davidoff releases in their Top 25.

A detailed explanation of the review process and the list itself can be accessed at the link below:

Well, they only rate new releases and they don't have a direct line to a retailer that will hold new shiny stock for them to buy units at msrp without caveat.  It's tough to get what you want the way you want it, when everyone wants that too and wants it more. 

Patina and Umabog as value is very nice to see though.

Some big feelings on all the store exclusives on the other hand.
