Beyond their acclaimed cigars, the following 10 cigar accessories bear the names of some of the most prolific cigar brands in the world and made to assist in your enjoyment of their cigars.

Why Accessorize?

At the most basic level, one simply needs to cut a cigar and then apply a source of fire to smoke it (unless it comes pre-cut of course). A dependable cutter and a lighter or wooden match will do the trick.

As I write this, I’m reminded of the late Richard Overton, a WWII veteran who, prior to passing away in 2018 at ripe old the age of 112, used the burner on his stovetop to light his 12 daily cigars (yes, I said twelve cigars, and yes, I said he was one hundred and twelve years old).

The supercentenarian was shown to have exclusively smoked a machine-rolled cigar called Tampa Sweets.

For the record, we don’t recommend using your stovetop to light your cigar.

Beyond the basic need for fire to smoke a cigar, a cigar also requires preliminary effort on our behalf for them to be in proper form and ready to smoke at a moment’s notice.

Between the processes of storing your cigar, transporting your cigar, and the actual smoking of your cigar, these clutch accessories from some of the world’s leading cigar brands will make things a lot easier – and are likely to enhance your overall smoking experience:
