CIGARS: THE YEAR'S TOP 25 -- We unveil our list of the best 25 cigars of the year. Our fourth annual cigar list includes many classics as well as some surprises as we retested the top cigars from a year of ratings. We also take a look at 21 new releases as well as the many value smokes that should be considered.

Sleepy Hollow found just the man to revive a classic by looking to its past.
