On day 3 of IPCPR17, I stopped by Quesada cigars booth to see the new released cigars and the old ones that are some of the best cigars around. Although Quesada cigar does major distribution, they still are a boutique cigar company at heart. All cigars are handmade with rich flavors, incredible smoking experience, and an impressive cigars from mild to full bodied for consumers to enjoy.
