KOTL Cigar of the Month Club November 2024

November might just be our favorite month. The heat of summer has passed, winter is still on the horizon, and the excitement of the holiday season is in full swing. Halloween kicks it off, Thanksgiving is just ahead, and of course, the most wonderful time of the year is fast approaching. But for the members of our Cigar Club, the most wonderful time isn’t just once a year—it’s the first week of every month, when the KOTL packs arrive at your door!

We hear from so many of you about how much you love the club, and how blown away you are by the exceptional cigars in every pack. Some even ask, “How do you do it? How do you consistently deliver such rare, limited-edition cigars month after month?” Well, let me tell you—we’ve got the connections! Cigar brands see the passion of our members and recognize our dedication to bringing you the best. They work closely with us to ensure we’re stocked with the finest limited releases.

Oz Family Cigars Pi Synesthesia: Brown

Oz Family Cigars Pi Synesthesia: Brown Limited Edition

Pi Synesthesia is a unique blend inspired by the artistic and philosophical vision of Cano Ozgener, father of Ozgener Family Cigars founder Tim Ozgener. Cano Ozgener, an artist at heart, believed that "Pi"—the infinite number—was the most significant in the world because of its endlessness. He creatively paired the digits of Pi with various colors, which he expressed through his paintings, bringing the idea of infinite possibility to life through art.

Synesthesia, a rare neurological phenomenon, is at the heart of this concept. For those with synesthesia (known as synesthetes), sensory experiences are intertwined—people can “see” sounds as colors or “taste” textures as shapes like "round" or "sharp" when they eat. Cano Ozgener’s Pi Synesthesia line draws on this blend of senses, translating it into the world of cigars by pairing cigars with colors to evoke a full, sensory experience.

Pi Synesthesia Brown Limited Edition is the latest release in this innovative series, joining previous editions like Pi Synesthesia Yellow (2022) and Red (2023). Each installment is more than just a cigar—it’s an exploration of art, taste, and perception. The new Pi Synesthesia Brown offers a luxurious and sensory-rich smoking experience, designed to engage your senses in a way that transcends the traditional cigar.

Lampert Cigars’ Oro El Gringo

El Gringo by Lampert Cigars is the same blend as the DON PATRON which is the Toro version of the Oro line.

The ORO LINE line guarantees a creamy, aromatic, and mild to medium smoke. Grassy, spicy aromas are present throughout the smoke, while woody, nutty, and finally strong roasted aromas develop over time.
