The Bucanero line exhibits a welcome discipline in construction
and a subtlety in taste in many of the lines that is quite remarkable,
especially with so many with maduro wrappers of so many different origins!
It’s a line worth exploring, not only of the nine blends
we described above, but of the four others we didn’t cover!

The Stogie Guys Review of the Bucanero Don Douglas Cabinet Series cigars
Stogie Guys Reviews of Bucanero Cigars Don Douglas Cabinet Series - BUY!

While I enjoyed Bucanero’s Treasure and Cañon Cubano,
this is definitely my favorite blend from Robert Spoden’s impressive boutique outfit.
The 6 inch by 54 ring gauge Belicoso boasts creamy notes of oak and spice
and a wonderful burn with a finely layered white ash.
If you let the $6-7 per stick price prevent a purchase you’ll miss out on a great cigar.

Verdict = Buy.

Monday, October 6th, 2008

Over a year ago, one of my colleagues listed three boutique cigar manufacturers in an effort to “discover new sticks and to play at least a small, direct role in supporting the art of cigar making.” Today I’d like to continue that trend because, in my opinion, these smaller-scale operations turn out some terrific smokes for a fraction of name-brand prices.
Now you might be asking what qualifies a cigar producer to be “boutique.” According to a 1999 feature article in Smoke Magazine, boutique cigars are “brands with a production of less than 1.5 million sticks per year.” (That number would likely have to be upped today to adjust for increased overall cigar production.) Others say boutiques simply mean the firm’s stogies are cultivated in small batches with high attention to individual detail.
For our purposes—and because it’s a lot easier than researching production numbers—I’ll adopt a broad definition: Boutique cigar manufacturers are those with a relatively limited output, name recognition, and niche market. In other words, to borrow a metaphor from Smoke Magazine, they are the micro-breweries of the cigar industry. Either way, I don’t want to get all caught up in semantics. Instead, I’d like to share my three favorite boutiques and encourage you to explore their wonderful creations:
Bucanero Cigars. Founded during the mid-90’s cigar boom, this company uses fine tobaccos from 10 different nations to create 18 signature blends. I particularly appreciate the Don Douglas, Treasure, and Cañon lines. “[Bucanero] was, and continues today to be, built around honesty and friendship,” says President Robert Spoden. “We set out slowly to introduce unique blends.”
