Its cousin, the Melanio Figurado, won the prestigious the best cigar of the year 2014 by Cigar Aficionado. The Melanio V Torpedo maduro, packaged in a box of 10, boasts the same exact blend and non-traditional shape of the grand prize winner but it's wrapped in a chocolate brown Nicaraguan wrapper. Once you experience the rich, warm flavors of wood, leather, coffee, and sweet caramel top notes with some added zest, you may want to vote this one a tie!
