Coming in at #7 on the 2024 Cigar of the Year Countdown is the Perdomo 30th Anniversary Connecticut Epicure.
The Perdomo 30th Anniversary line was easily one of the most anticipated cigar lines to hit the market in recent memory. It’s hard to believe that about 18 months the world first got a look at the Perdomo 30th Anniversary line at the 2023 Premium Cigar Association Trade Show. In fact, when it came to the final packaging, Perdomo’s Arthur Kemper and Nicholas Perdomo III kept the design under wraps from CEO Nick Perdomo until the night before the Trade Show. A few months later, Perdomo would ship its 30th anniversary to retailers.

Prime Time Jukebox Episode 148 features our 18th installment of our Album Archaeology Series, Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd. This album won our 2024 Battle of the Bands – 1970s Tournament, and was the album drafted by Espinosa Cigars’ Hector Alfonso. To celebrate Wish You Were Here‘s win, we devote an Album Archaeology to this album. We are also joined by John McTavish of Developing Palates who also participated in this year’s tournament.
Much like an archaeologist digs and hunts for gems, on Album Archaeology we dig deep into an album. We examine each of the tracks of this album looking at the music, lyrics, and stories behind this album.

Coming in at #8 on the 2024 Cigar of the Year Countdown is the Tatuaje 20th Anniversary Reserva RL22.
As a part of its 20th-anniversary celebration in 2023, Tatuaje Cigars had several cigar releases to commemorate the occasion. Late in 2023, Tatuaje unveiled a pair of limited edition cigars made at the Garcia family's El Rey de los Habanos factory in Miami. These cigars were the 20th Anniversary Escasos EL22 and the Reserva RL22. Tatuaje's roots are in Miami, so it made sense to do something from the factory that started it all for Pete Johnson. Both blends were rolled in 2021 and had been aging in boxes since 2022 before shipping late in 2023.

The ZDT is the fifth installment of Espinosa’s limited-edition Las 6 Provincias series. This annual limited edition series pays homage to the pre-Castro era of Cuba.

Las 6 Provincias is Espinosa Cigars’ most premium limited edition series. The company has six planned Las 6 Provincias series releases, each with a unique blend, size, and associated artwork. The name ZDT stands for Zona de Tabaco, the name given to the Pinar del Rio province in the western part of Cuba.

Coming in at #10 on the 2024 Cigar of the Year Countdown is the Casa Cuevas La Mandarria Oscuro.
La Mandarria Oscuro is the second blend by Casa Cuevas under the La Mandarria line. The La Mandarria line is a lemon-to-lemonade story for Casa Cuevas Cigars. La Mandarria translates to “The Sledgehammer.” The inspiration for La Mandarria came from the devastating effects of a robbery in the company’s warehouse earlier in 2019. A sledgehammer was used to break into the warehouse. Later that year, Casa Cuevas released the first La Mandarria. La Mandarria pays homage to how Casa Cuevas overcame the adversity of the robbery. La Mandarria was initially released in a Habano wrapper as a limited edition offering. A year later, La Mandarria became a regular production offering.
