• BrandsWarped CortoAlthough a relative newcomer in the cigar industry, Warped has wasted no time in establishing a name for themselves. After a placement in the top ten of Cigar Aficionado’s Best Cigars of 2017, Warped is keeping the momentum going with the Corto. This medium-bodied Nicaraguan puro is made at the Casa Fernandez factory in Esteli, and features an immaculate box-pressed construction in addition to a conveniently petite size, as its name suggests. A new size will be released every year to take the place of the previous one, inevitably making the retired vitolas a future collector’s item. Don’t hesitate and risk falling short and missing out on this year’s Corto.

• Cigar SectionBox-Pressed (Square)A box pressed cigar is a cigar that has a square shape. Originally, this shape came from the practice of packing round cigars tightly in cardboard boxes which are then compacted using a manual press. The cigars are thus pressed into each other and become a “squarish” or semi-square shape. Today, cigar makers use square shaped molds or a wooden trunk press for their box pressed cigars, achieving a more defined square section.
