Until about a year ago I was dead set against the 60 ring cigar but then I smoked one that changed my mind. On the market there are now about 3 cigars that I prefer the 60 ring over a more traditional size.

The Master is a joint effort between Carlos Torano and master roller Felipe Sosa and comes in five sizes: Robusto (5 x 50), Torpedo (6.25 x 52), Churchill (7 x 50), Toro (6 x 54) and now 6 x 60. The cigar is described by Toraño as “having a bold, rich flavor … it’s for the man with a seasoned palate, a cigar that fully satisfies after an opulent meal or an evening pairing with spirits. True aficionados will discern and appreciate the balanced flavor and body.”
