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.

The Asylum Sensorium Asen 60 from C.L.E. Cigar Company is ranked 11th on the 2024 Cigar of the Year Countdown.
Asylum Sensorium is a limited edition super premium offering from C.L.E Cigar Company, which was founded by Christian Eiroa. Notably, the blend is highlighted by tobacco grown by Christian's father,Julio R. Eiroa, known as Piñareno. Piñareno is a low-yield tobacco that is challenging to grow. If you know something about Julio R. Eiroa, you will realize he is no stranger to taking on the challenge of cultivating tobacco. Most notably, he overcame the significant challenge of bringing Authentic Corojo back to the market.
Despite the difficulties associated with growing Piñareno, the Eiroas firmly believe it is worth the effort due to its exceptional flavor. Therefore, with the release of Asylum Sensorium, Christian decided to feature Piñareno in a super-premium cigar. Fittingly, he incorporated it into the Asylum brand, which is recognized for pushing boundaries—not just in terms of large ring gauges. In addition to its unique qualities, the premium nature of this cigar is evident, as the Asylum 60 comes with a price tag of $60.00.

Coming in at #12 on the 2024 Cigar of the Year Countdown is the Aladino Limited Edition by JRE Tobacco Co 2023 edition.
Since Julio and Justo Eiroa launched JRE in 2016, much of the focus has been on building up the regular product offerings in its portfolio.

The Aladino Limited Edition debuted at the 2023 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, and at the time, it sounded like this would be a one-and-done release.
