What type of cigar cutter is best?

The best cigar cutter depends on personal preference. Guillotine and double blade cutters offer clean, straight cuts, V-cutters create a focused draw, and punch cutters provide a compact cutting option.

Do cigar cutters affect the draw?

Yes. A proper cigar cutter helps preserve the cigar cap and allows consistent airflow, which contributes to an even and enjoyable draw.

Can one cigar cutter be used for all cigar sizes?

Many cigar cutters are designed to accommodate a range of ring gauges, but larger cigars may perform better with wider cutters or V-cut styles.

How do I properly cut a cigar?

To properly cut a cigar, remove only the cap just above the shoulder using a sharp cutter. Cutting too deeply can damage the wrapper and affect performance.

El Septimo Yao Maduro Torpedo (6½ x 60)

El Septimo names this dark, oily torpedo for the legendary emperor Yao, a bold Maduro staple that delivers exactly what it appears to be, offered by Cigar Inc., your premium cigar shop in Los Angeles and Woodland Hills.

Shape: Torpedo
Wrapper: Maduro

Blend Details: The Yao Maduro is handcrafted in Costa Rica from El Septimo's proprietary long-aged tobaccos, grown on the house's own high-elevation farms, and finished under a dark, oily Maduro wrapper. We present specific wrapper, binder, and filler leaves only where El Septimo officially discloses them; beyond the Maduro wrapper style they are not published for this cigar, so we describe the blend by its character: bold and chocolatey, a humidor staple that smokes well on its own or as a flavor pairing. (Wrapper style noted from the existing listing and not re-verified on elseptimo.com.)

For adults 21+. Please enjoy responsibly.
