| Unlike most of its counterparts in the men's magazine ranks, Cigar Aficionado targets a classier, more cultivated man, the guy who'd rather smoke a Montecristo and savor the indulgence of a cherry-red '65 Mustang convertible than read about what Hollywood stars have to say while they eat lunch. It's the mature man's Esquire, a magazine that's more interested in yachts, rum, and golf than it is in this season's new fashions. As the name suggests, at the heart of the magazine is the cigar, with articles investigating everything from California smoking laws to Cuban politics. It's true that you don't have to smoke cigars to enjoy Cigar Aficionado, but Cigar Aficionado is a magazine that will try its very hardest to get you to enjoy cigars. --Jon Groebner |

| I asked for this magazine last year as a birthday present, I have read this magazine at the store and friends homes. In addition to interesting stories about cigars and the industry this is a magazine about living the good life. You dont have to be a millionaire to do that and they cover all income levels of the good life. I read it cover-to-cover each month . . . what a great magazine !! |
Excellent!

What a great magazine! I'm sure a lot of people will whine and moan because it is not politically correct to like smoking cigars... but they can go jump in a lake, if you'll pardon my French. Some people don't like the smell of cigars, but I always tell them (after I've knocked them to the ground) that individual liberties cannot be silenced! And yeah, cigars leave your breath a little manky, but real women will put up with it if you slip their "agent" an extra [...] bucks. And while I'm being non-PC (not personal computer, hehe. See above) let me just say I love throat cancer! If there was a magazine called Cancer Kazoo I'd be out the door of my extended-stay motel room and down to the lobby to smack all the homeless guys out of the way to get to the newsstand! I don't care how many "warnings" the cops give me. I can do a two year "warning" stretch in the joint without ever breaking a sweat. You think they don't have cigars in the joint! Oh yes they do, my friends. And they have this magazine there too! In fact, Big "Zizzy" Baker (Mr. "Backache" we use to call him) use to bring me my Celebrato Extra Fine Rolled stogies wrapped in the magazine! He'd complain like always and the plastic bag was a pain in the backside to clean (no pun intended Zizzy), but after that second hour when you could see the face on the cover and you knew you only had another hour to go... man! Good times! Good times!
Keep on rolling Cigar Afficiando (get it?!!!) and I'll keep reading!

| Once upon a time, this was one of my favorite magazines. The reason was simple. I love cigars and this was a magazine primarily about cigars. The cigar content now, though, seems often to be an after-thought. The serious articles of the past have given way to more and more ads and articles about watches and shirts that cost more than the gross national product of much of the world. Too much now is about frivolous celebrity culture, devoid of any cigar-related content. If I had the slightest interest in how some actor/singer/athlete lives, I would read one of those magazines. While I will still occasionally pick this up, and still do find the occasional exceptional article, I have now turned to Cigar magazine for my cigar-related content. |
