CIGARS: a biography.

Aaron Sigmond’s fifth book on cigars is unlike any other: part historical tale, part travelogue, part luxury textbook, this multilayered monograph, penned by Sigmond and photographed by Ian Spanier, takes the reader on an odyssey that traverses the Old World (Spain, Great Britain, France and Switzerland) and the New (Cuba, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Honduras and Mexico, as well as up and down the eastern seaboard from Florida to New York City and New England).

CIGARS: a biography brims with colorful characters and fascinating details, as well as firsthand observations gathered during Sigmond’s decades as a renowned cigar doyen, during which his travels have taken him (often accompanied by Spanier) to cigar factories, tobacco farms and the world’s finest cigar merchants and lounges. CIGARS: a biography is an educational, entertaining tour de force.

 This limited first edition by award-winning boutique book imprint Mad/Dash Press comes in a cigar case-inspired slip case and is set for release March 2025.
