Coming in at #5 Cigar of the Year for 2025 is the Domain Entropy Robusto Gordo.
Domain Cigars is a new company that launched in March 2024. The company is part of a partnership between Esteban Disla and Daniel Lance. One thing that is quite interesting about Domain Cigars is that they are not just entering the market as a brand, but as a full-service tobacco company. This includes agriculture, tobacco processing, tobacco brokering, and cigar making under its own factory, Tabacalera Familia Disla.
Domain Entropy is the third regular production line under the brand. This cigar follows Domain’s path of naming cigars after concepts in physics, as the brand’s first two lines were Neutron and Negentropy. The concept of Entropy is most commonly associated with states of disorder, randomness, or uncertainty.

Coming in at #7 Cigar of the Year for 2025 is the Fuente Fuente OpusX La Familia 25 Years.
As the name suggests, this line commemorates the 25th anniversary of the Fuente Fuente OpusX brand. OpusX holds significant importance for its creator, Carlos “Carlito” Fuente Jr. In late 1995, Carlito introduced the Fuente Fuente OpusX, a revolutionary cigar that demonstrated to the world that an ultra-premium Dominican puro could be crafted using a Dominican-grown wrapper. The OpusX 25 Years line was first introduced at the 2021 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show as part of an offering in an Elie Bleu humidor. That vitola for that release was a Churchill known as El Tributo. Fast forward to the 2024 PCA Trade Show, and Arturo Fuente showcased a perfecto size known as La Familia.
