Magazines about Cigars?

idrivea9 · August 2008

Am in the magazine business so you know I have to find out what magazines cover cigars. I started looking around at what magazines cover the cigar world, found a few print, and a few blog/online types. Wanted to ask what you guys and gals liked and disliked about your favorite cigar magazine. Brian

Probably the fact that most of them think we wear Rolexes, drive Ferraris, and date Playmates.

I agree, I have a subscription to "CA" also and I do love to read the mag and check out all the cool gagedts and high dollar things out there that I can't afford, but there really isn't much about cigars in it. I like the reviews but don't learn a whole lot about cigars from it.

I used to have a subscription to CA, and because of reasons listed I no longer have a subscription. If you want to make a great cigar magazine, you have to have a lot of reviews and interviews with cigar makers etc.

I was worried that is what the cigar magazine market was like. I work for a auto magazine that covers just one make. For the last six years we have turned down any advertisement that isn't directly related to the cars. Just because our readers drive a German sports car doesn't mean they take their private jet on vacations. I was about ready to subscribe to the three cigar magazines I found, might just wait. Brian

To be honest I get more from Ccom's monthy newsletter than I ever got out of CA or any of the others.

Hey Maddy, I use to subscribe mostly for the cigar reviews, but felt they may have been some what slanted based on who provided advertisement revenue. I get far better suggestions, honesty, and REAL reviews here with all of you than I ever did reading CA magazine.

there was one that i cant remember the name of... my shop carries it. ill have to go get it and subscribe. there were many times where i was there by my self in the lounge reading this waiting for friends to show up. It was about every aspect of the cigar world and nothing else. from growing to smoking to blending to brand names to how brands advertise. it was sweet. ill get there soon if i can.

Perhaps it's Cigar Magazine ( http://www.cigar-magazine.com/ )... sounds like the description, and I just happened to receive a free copy today in my CI order. Some cool articles, and no ads for cars, cologne, or watches... just cigars.
