Privada Cigar Club has just dropped an in-depth, no-holds-barred video that explores the world of cigar rankings and what they truly mean for cigar enthusiasts. Hosted by Brian, the video dives deep into the popular “Top Cigar” lists, breaking down their pros, cons, and hidden realities.
In this latest release, Brian takes aim at the big names dominating these lists, sharing his unfiltered thoughts on brands like Padrón, Rocky Patel, My Father, and Montecristo. He highlights how corporate influence often shapes these rankings, with heavy advertising budgets swaying the results. “These lists are paid for,” Brian states, shedding light on the behind-the-scenes deals that can impact what cigars make the cut.
The video also provides valuable insights for cigar lovers who want to explore beyond mainstream brands. Brian emphasizes the beauty of limited-edition cigars, where the craft and creativity truly shine, and urges viewers to expand their horizons beyond the usual suspects. He also discusses his personal approach to using iconic brands like Padrón as a “baseline” to evaluate cigars’ quality and flavor, while advocating for exploring lesser-known, craft-focused options.
With a blend of education and straight talk, this video is a must-watch for anyone who wants to go beyond the glossy pages of cigar publications. Whether you’re new to cigars or a seasoned aficionado, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how to make informed choices and appreciate the artistry behind this timeless craft.
