The CIGAR TROPHY AWARDS
The Cigar Trophy Awards were created as a gesture of appreciation – as a thank you for the hard work that goes into every single premium cigar, into every cherished accessory and into every feel-good oasis where we can enjoy a cigar in a pleasant atmosphere.
After the awards were initiated in 1998, the Cigar Trophies soon proved to be the most coveted awards in the cigar world. After all, it is the only prize awarded by the public in this sector.
:The categories for the Consumer Awards are
Best Brand | Best Cigar | Best Value | Best Boutique Brand | Best Accessory | Best Lounge
