Best sweet cigars: Top Five
Understanding different flavor profiles is a great starting point when shopping for cigars you’re likely to enjoy. At JR Cigars you’ll find many different flavor profiles, from earthy and woody cigars, to alcohol-inspired creations with hints of whiskey and wine, to sweet and even fruity cigars.
The best sweet cigars will satisfy your sugar lust, but still offer plenty of balance and body. In this top five, you’ll find our pick of the best sweet cigars available from JR Cigars, all of which offer excellent value when you’re in the mood for a sweet and syrupy smoke.
Kentucky Fire Cured Fat Molly
Kentucky Fire Cured Fat Molly is a 5 x 56 stick that offers the very best of Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos, with a San Andres Mexican EMS wrapper. Created by the innovative minds at Drew Estate, Kentucky Fire Cured Cigars use tobacco normally found in a pipe, rather than a cigar.
This is fire-cured in barns, giving it a smoky profile, like the tobacco equivalent of BBQ sauce. Sweet, nutty, with a hickory twist, it’s a great starting point if you have a sweet tooth.

Brick House Maduro Robusto
You can’t beat a good Robusto when you want to reach for a medium-sized cigar, and Brick House Maduro Robusto is perfect for a sweet palate. Measuring in at 5 x 54, the dark maduro wrapper gives this cigar a richness of flavor balanced by sweet chocolate, caramel and dried fruit.
It’s a mature sweetness, not sugar candy, and the Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos are impeccably enhanced by the chewy Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper leaves. A Brick House Cigars triumph that draws on 125 years of JC Newman expertise.
