Cigar Magazines

Here at TopCubans.com, we are firm believers in growing and developing through experience. The journey of discovery and understanding exactly what smoke suits your palate when and with what combination of food, drink and environment is a long and challenging one. Your apprenticeship naturally starts close to home, with number one. This personal trial phase is a must, but can be narrow as you are bound by your own limited experience. Next, you will meet people, be it in your cigar club or in your regular smoking areas, who will push you into the direction of 'good things'. This sharing of experiences will open new doors and will be a major step in educating your palate to the diversity of aromas and body. From here, the normal next step will be to look to the leaders of the profession or recognized experts to give you that special experience. This is where the world of the written word can be a shoulder to lean on. Leading cigar magazines like Cigar Aficionado, Smoke Magazine, European Cigar Cult Journal, L'Amateur de Cigare, Club Cigares, Pipes and Tobaccos or Tobacco Asia are an excellent way to get immediate expert feedback on smokes that interest you, as well as discovering new 'out of the ordinary' treats. Open yourself to as much exposure as you can, as this wealth of experience will only assist you in your personal journey.
