I think some folks will find this a handy reference as sooo many new cigars come out ever year. I’ll try to include link to articles and any of my reviews from sizes in the new lines. I will also use this, for me, to help determine the cigar of the year. I also included some limited Editions below the main list. I do not however, include Internet Exclusive cigars. Let me know if this is helpful (and if I missed anything). Some new releases get bumped to the following year, so things may move around. Update – beginning the 2011 list with holdouts from 2010!

I find the link very helpful J, it’s very interesting to step back and take it all in… man there is a lot great stuff still being done (new and old). Without racking my brain, no need to overexert myself, I listed a couple smokes to aid your journey into all that is 2009.
Padilla Dominus
Tatuaje Verocu Tubos
El Triunfador (Europe Release)
Casa Magna Salomone
Baccarat “The Game” collaboration w/ Davidoff
PDR Bundle
La Traviata by CAO
CAO Cuban Press
There are so many new smokes sprouting up with the ICPCR show just around the corner…be ready for the flood mid August.
Nice work bro!
Great post. I’m betting Murcielago is going to surprise some people. Just a feeling I have… and DiFazio? I definitely did not get that memo. Gracias, hermano.
Just got a sampler from DiFazio. I’ll post reviews soon! 🙂
Awesome! I will definitely bookmark and use this page. I would like a list like this with all the cigars rated so I could start with the highest rated ones and work my way down.
Nice list. Will be going to this a bunch.
You have to add the Man O’ War Ruination. That may be a top contender for blend of the year.
You list El Baton as Fuente’s 1st attempt at a Nicaraguan Puro, All information I’ve read states that it is not made by Fuente and is a JC Newman cigar.
JC Newman and Fuente make up the combine entity the “Cigar Family”. Just using shorthand – most folks know Fuente more than they do JC Newman.
Hey guys, my name is Anthony Turull and for quite some time I’ve been on a difficult quest trying to find the Camacho Liberty 2002-2006. All I need is 1 of each so quantity is not of a concern, if you have any information that could point me on the right direction as to finding these I would highly appreciate it. Thank you in advance for your kind attention to this inquiry.
Hey Anthony, try the BOTL forum in the Trading Zone – http://www.botl.org
I can see what I have…
