STEALS AND DEALS

Plus: our Register & Win winner of the week!

Los Angeles, October 30 – The name Nat Sherman has been synonymous with cigars for more than three-quarters of a century.

The Nat Sherman line of cigars, however, has receded in profile in recent years and the staggering one-time variety of blends – City Desk, Exchange, Fifth Avenue, Gotham, Host, Landmark, LSN, Manhattan, Metropolitan and VIP – are down to just Host and Metropolitan. But they’re still pretty good and well worth checking out. The Metropolitans – including the terrific maduro-wrapped versions – are on sale at Superior Cigars.

And there are many more quality specials this week:
