Selection Criteria

We’ve not just selected the obvious choices for this list. Instead, we’ve run a large selection of cigars through a rigorous selection process. We’ve included criteria such as size, unique characteristics, and coffee flavor. This has allowed us to display the cigars that are best suited to the topic of the list.

• Shape and size: Smokers across the world have different preferences on cigar shapes and sizes. To achieve a variety in the list, we’ve included both larger and smaller cigars. This includes both ring gauges and lengths.
• Price: Not everyone has a large budget to play with. That’s why we’ve included cigars at both ends of the price spectrum. This will ensure everyone can find a selection of coffee-flavored cigars they can afford.
• Unique characteristics: We wanted to make sure each cigar on this list has its own unique element. This can be its flavor profile, ring gauge, and so on. This helps to prevent the inclusion of cigars that are almost identical.
• Coffee flavor: The defining criteria in this list is, of course, the coffee flavor present in the cigars. We made sure to pick coffee-flavored cigars, rather than coffee-infused options. We’ll explain the difference a little later on.
• User reviews: As well as conducting research of our own, we’ve scoured the web for user feedback. This helps to gather a general consensus of the cigars, and where their strengths lie.

What is the Difference Between a Coffee-Flavored Cigar and a Coffee-Infused Cigar?

During your search for the best coffee cigars, you’re likely to come across the term ‘coffee-infused cigar’. While both terms relate to the coffee flavor of the cigar, they are not the same.

A coffee-flavored cigar refers to the natural flavor profile of a cigar. The process of manufacturing them is traditional. Therefore, the coffee flavor is a result of the natural compounds in the tobacco. This flavor profile is often created by the tobacco being grown in the vicinity of coffee plants.

Coffee-infused cigars have had the coffee flavor directly added to them. There are multiple ways in which this happens, including cold infusion. This is when the tobacco is placed near freshly roasted coffee beans. The tobacco will absorb the flavor and aromas, creating a coffee taste in the cigar.

Cigars may also go through the process of wet infusion. The tobacco will be soaked in a coffee solution, to give it a distinctive flavor. Spray infusion is another method, and involves coffee being sprayed over the tobacco.

How to Pick the Best Coffee-Flavored Cigar

The best coffee-flavored cigar for you will be dependent on personal preferences. Despite this, there are a few general factors to consider before making your choice.

Experience Levels

Coffee is an accessible taste for cigar smokers new and old. However, if you are newer to smoking, you are likely to prefer a mild to medium-bodied stick. This will be less overwhelming while allowing you to enjoy the flavors on offer. On the contrary, experienced smokers may want to opt for a full-bodied, intense option.

Origin

Cuban cigars are usually regarded as the best on the market. However, they’re not the first choice for coffee flavor enthusiasts. Nicaragua stands out, with much of its cigar produce known for having strong notes of coffee. So, when you’re on the hunt for a coffee-flavored cigar, don’t discount other regions.

Occasion

There’s a cigar for all occasions, whether you’re settling in for the evening or celebrating a special event. While coffee-flavored cigars are versatile, they are especially suitable for morning smoking sessions. For busy morning routines, you may want to opt for a shorter cigar with a lesser burn time.
