It’s time for you to vote on what will become halfwheel’s first-ever Readers’ Choice Awards cigar. After thousands of nominations, the top six vote-getters are now finalists. You can vote on your favorite below.

As I mentioned when this project was announced, this isn’t simply about finding out what our readers’ favorite cigar of 2023 was, we also want to learn more about our readers. We aren’t asking for your name or email address, rather, we want to know how many cigars you smoke per week, how often you come to halfwheel and what’s your favorite type of content.

You can vote below or by going to halfwheel.com/vote.

Some details:

  • Feel free to answer this question however you’d like.
  • People who work in the cigar industry can participate. We aren’t going to ask for your name, email, etc.
  • Voting will take place Jan. 1-12, 2024.
  • If you didn’t nominate a cigar you can still vote.
  • Please only vote once. We will be filtering out multiple votes from the same IP address.

I am an editor and co-founder of halfwheel.com/Rueda Media, LLC. I previously co-founded and published TheCigarFeed, one of the two predecessors of halfwheel. I have written about the cigar industry for more than a decade, covering everything from product launches to regulation to M&A. In addition, I handle a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff here at halfwheel. I enjoy playing tennis, watching boxing, falling asleep to the Le Mans 24, wearing sweatshirts year-round and eating gyros. echte liebe.
