There seems to be a "Top 25" for everything these days, so at Cigar.com we thought it only appropriate that we offer our opinion on "Best of the Best" in the cigar world. There will be no complex algorithms to rate cigars here, folks. Our equation is much simpler and less scientific. When we rated our top picks for 2009, our panel included five of our best consultants, a cold November weekend, a keg of Yuengling, spirits galore, and of course...hundreds of premium cigars. A grueling task, yes, but someone had to do it. By the final hour, we found ourselves hidden among a waist-high pile of burning nubs and empty scotch bottles, while Tim huddled in the corner begging for us to end the madness. But we soldiered on, knowing our customers would be eager to get our feedback on those blends that made the grade in 2009. Did your favorite make the cut?
Cigar.com Awards: Maduro
Nub Maduro

Tasting this stout little cigar equates to drinking a shot of espresso. Offers layers of complex flavors including coffee, chocolate and earthy notes. Like your girlfriend, we're going to tell you size doesn't matter, but we actually mean it. These little Nub cigars prove good things do come in small packages.
La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte
An A.J. Fernandez masterpiece rolled with a dark and oily Pennsylvania Broadleaf maduro wrapper. Medium to full-bodied with rich, peaty and leathery flavors leading to a long finish. It's not every day you find a cigar utilizing P.A. Broadleaf wrapper. Hike up your skirt and take this new gem for a ride.
Partagas Black
Like those bootycalls you had back in college, this cigar is a great fail-safe when the occasion calls for a tried and true classic; no need to shop around, you already got this one's number. Partagas Black comes rolled in an extra aged, Medio Tiempo wrapper, imparting a spicy yet smooth and well-rounded flavor with both leathery and earthy notes mixed with light hints of spice.
Best of Maduro Sampler

Best of Maduro 2009 Sampler includes two each of Nub Maduro 460, La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte Toro, and Partagas Black Classico. Rich notes of earth and espresso combine for an elegant, refined finish that offers a sweet aftertaste.
