The Best 60-Ring Cigars

King of the classic big ring sizes, the 60 ring gauge has become a staple for many of the world’s top brands. What was once dismissed as a novelty is now widely appreciated for its unique attributes – a cooler burn, wide-open draw, long burn time, and decompressed delivery of flavors. Yes, 60-ring cigars are here to stay, and here are a few of our favorites in 2023.

My Father The Judge Grand Robusto Box-Press

The 93-rated My Father The Judge Grand Robusto Box-Press is a fantastic achievement in decadent flavor. Wrapping a dark Ecuadorian Sumatra leaf around a careful selection of 100% Nicaraguan tobaccos, this 5 x 60 bomber serves up a wealth of rich tasting notes while maintaining its medium-bodied balance. Conjuring tones of crisp cedar, warm leathery sweetness, creamy cocoa notes, and big black pepper that builds as you burn, there’s never a dull moment with this stout iteration of the distinguished Judge.

Nica Rustica Adobe Gordo

Offering impressive consistency and rich taste, Drew Estate’s Nica Rustica Adobe line brings the brand’s signature bold character to cigar fans on a budget, and the 6 x 60 Gordo size is one of its most satisfying expressions. Sweet and spicy courtesy of its blend recipe of an Ecuadorian-seed Habano wrapper over a Brazilian binder and estate-grown long-fillers from Estelí and Jalapa, Nicaragua, the Nica Rustica Adobe Gordo exudes a cool flow of woody, leathery, and peppery tasting tones at an agreeable price point.

Eiroa Dark 60 x 6

Christian Eiroa might be best known for making the Camacho brand one of the most recognized cigar labels in the world, or being one of the first cigar-makers to lean hard into the boutique segment with the introduction of the Asylum brand, but when discussing his greatest accomplishments the Eiroa Dark should be mentioned among them. A powerful puro rolled using 100% authentic Corojo tobaccos grown on the Eiroa family’s farm, this all-Honduran smoke displays amazing complexity despite using a single varietal for its wrapper, binder, and fillers. Earthy and naturally sweet, the full-bodied Eiroa Dark 60 x 6 presents an exceptionally satisfying burn that’s alive with tones of white pepper, baking spices, citrus, and cashew.

Los Statos Deluxe Gigante

In addition to being damn snazzy in presentation, the Los Statos Deluxe breathes new life into a pre-revolution Cuban brand with delicious results. Employing a silky Ecuador Sumatra wrapper around a firm Nicaraguan binder and a balanced blend of Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers, the medium-bodied LSD’s lively progression of earth, baking spice, dark chocolate, and coffee notes is especially tasty when aided by the breadth of the mighty 6 x 60 Gigante size.

Plasencia Alma Fuerte Sixto I Hexagon Natural

With its 10-year-aged Colorado Claro wrapper leaf, all-Nicaraguan blend composition of tobaccos from the unparalleled Plasencia family farms, and inventive hexagonal box press, the Plasencia Alma Fuerte Sixto I Hexagon Natural is simply in a league of its own. This intensely flavorful creation delivers a warm stream of earth, dark chocolate, and smooth spices through a generous draw on each carefully-crafted stick, making it a smoke to remember and a fitting selection for special occasions.
