Binny's Blog

It is time once again to roll out the red carpet and spotlight out favorite cigars of the year. We have tirelessly been tallying the votes and sifting through hundreds of suggestions from our dedicated staff to bring you The Binny’s top 10 cigars of 2022.

Meat pies have been beloved across Ireland and the U.K. for centuries. Usually that means a hearty crust made with beef suet or lard but when it comes to Shepherd’s Pie, rich, creamy and tantalizingly browned mashed potatoes stand in for pastry. Underneath that buttery layer of mash is a savory mixture of ground meat and vegetables, bound together with a thick gravy, making for a hearty and filling dish for a late winter’s day. St. Patrick's Day, to be precise.

It’s that time again – when we announce our Top 10 Cigars of the year. 2021 was busy for cigar manufacturers, and we were delighted to see so many great new cigars grace our shelves at Binny’s. Each year, we ask our cigar consultants, managers and store associates for their favorites, and after hours of research, smoking, and deliberation, we are proud to present our Top 10 Cigars of 2021.

Two pies are always better than one. We submit as proof positive this mashup of two classic cream pies. We round it all out with plenty of chocolate to make the sum exponentially greater than its parts.

2020 was not a very typical year for many reasons, but we did have some great cigars to help us through.
