The HONEY BADGER. What a cool name… 

This line comes from the hands of our good friend Erik Espinosa and his La Zona Factory. Honey Badger Maduro (yes, it comes in multiple wrapper variations) provides main notes of oak-wood, cocoa, and is complimented by undertones of coffee bean.

It’s always a pleasure to work with Erik and if there’s anything he may have in common with the animal is that Honey badgers are known for their bold nature. They fearlessly confront much larger animals and don't back down easily, reflecting attributes like courage, determination, and resilience.

We’re not saying Erik is a small guy, we’re highlighting his toughness… Here’s a couple Honey Badger Facts for your entertainment…

1. Despite their name, honey badgers don't primarily feed on honey; they have a diverse diet that includes insects, small mammals, birds, and even venomous snakes….

2. Honey badgers are excellent climbers and swimmers, showcasing their adaptability to various terrains and environments….

3. They have a remarkable sense of smell, which helps them locate food, detect predators, and navigate their environment…

4. Despite their small size, honey badgers are considered one of the toughest and most ferocious animals in the wild due to their aggressive and relentless nature when provoked.

Frequently Asked
Questions

What is Cigar Detective?

Cigar Detective is the brainchild of experienced cigar industry veterans. We aim to offer something special to both seasoned cigar aficionados and newcomers. We're changing the market by combining small-scale, high-quality, and artisanal cigar-making with affordability.

We strongly believe in our mission to gather top-notch cigars and highlight the amazing factories that make them. Our deep industry connections allow us to get the best tobacco and cigars from renowned factories around the world, offering top quality at the most accessible prices. We understand the desire for top-notch cigars with attractive branding without the hefty price tag. Our goal is to create exceptional cigars at great value, as we like to say: "Good cigars. Great prices."

How does Cigar Detective work?

Our team engages in a detailed process of blend development with our partner factories and intricate branding. We visit the factories, deep dive into the profile we are trying to achieve, give these brands life through a visual identity, and finally let the cigars age until they are ready to be enjoyed by our friends and customers. We work with the best tobaccos on the planet and sacrifice our margins to enable affordability, allowing more people to access these high quality products that would be otherwise much more costly with different branding and multi-leveled retail structure.

Do you sell other brands?

Unless we are developing a special collaboration, we will not be selling brands not owned and developed by Cigar Detective for the time being. All cigar brands have been envisioned, sourced, and developed by our team with the purpose to fulfill the market’s wants and needs.
