“TOP 5 KENTUCKY DERBY CIGARS” ALONG WITH DERBY WEEK EVENTS Top-Rated Cigars & Special Events to Celebrate Derby ‘19

Riverside Cigar Shop & Lounge has released its top 5 cigar recommendations for the days leading up to, and of course the big day itself, the Kentucky Derby!

This expertly crafted list includes something for every flavor preference and price point and has been carefully curated by Riverside Cigar Shop & Lounge/Match Cigar Bar Founder and Proprietor Jeff Mouttet.

They are:

1)     Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust's Sin Compromiso. Sin compromiso means 'without compromise' in Spanish, and Cigar Snob magazine certainly agrees, as they made it their #1 cigar of the year for 2018. Full bodied, medium strength, delicious.

2)     RoMa Craft Tobac Intemperance EC Faith, and Jeff Mouttet's go-to morning cigar. Creamy, with hints of spice from the Nicaraguan filler used. Good all day long, great to pair with coffee, beer, and bourbon.

3)     Nat Sherman Timeless 555. Riverside's store exclusive, special size made just for them. Medium bodied and smooth. Limited amount left!

4)     RoMa Craft Tobac CroMagnon EMH. The original size, blend of RoMa Craft. Rustic. Primal. Strong. A bestseller.

5)     Perdomo Humidified 4-Packs. Available in 4 different combinations, Champagne, Connecticut, Sungrown and Maduro. Four cigars in a humidified bag for only $29.95. Great for Derby Week, cookouts, golf, whatever!
