Cabinet Selection Chairman big cigars are 6 inches long and have a large 60 ring gauge. They are skillfully hand made by master rollers with years of experience. The Filler is a sun-grown Cuban-Seed Habano tobacco. The Binder is a superior quality Habano 2000. This typical Cuba style cigar is draped in a flawless dark Habano Wrapper leaf from Ecuador. It is meticulously finished with a typical old-fashioned long curly head cap and a tail. It has the largest ring size of the line, a ring gauge of 60. The Chairman is 6” long and is very rich in flavor. As the rest of Cuban Crafters Cigars, it is TOTALMENTE HECHO A MANO, which means that from start to finish the cigar is completely made by hand. They have a bold and complex smooth taste.
The Chairman reminds you of the times when cigars from Cuba were the best in the world. Each one is meticulously handcrafted by a skilled Master roller. They are silky and impeccably box pressed, and are finished the way cigars from Cuba used to be. The cap has a long curly head. The foot is a typical Cuban cigar cola (tail). As in the past, each tobacco leaf is hand picked and selected based on its fine qualities. The leaves are then cured and aged through an extensive fermentation and aging process. After three years and five curing fermentations, the leaves evolve into a perfect cigar at the hands of artisans. Smoking it is an experience all by itself. The draw is perfect and firm, and it burns evenly. The white ash is exceptionally long and clean. The complex taste is intensely flavorful and full in body. This is what smoking a true Cuban cigar is all about.
FULL BODIED. Their distinguished stout taste is described as full-bodied and intensely flavorful with well balanced floral flavors and a leather undertone. There are hints of spices and nuts. It ends with whispers of coffee and chocolate.

Subject :: A must try
This is an excellent smoke! The wrapper is the color of dark chocolate, the roll is tight, the draw is good, and the flavor is superb. The initial light is strong and stirs the palate. After several minutes, the cigar mellows with the rich taste of black coffee with a hint of chocolate and a clean finish. For years my favorite cuban smoke has been the montecristo #2 torpedo, but i rate this cigar as equally satisfying. If you enjoy the padron 1964 anniversary series, you’ll love this cigar.

Very,very good smoke and it lasted about an hour.im going to order a box
Subject :: My take
The taste is very smooth and keeps getting better with every drag. I sence an aged tobacco with a leather and chocolate undertone. It is very complex and exotic. After about one third down the coffee bean flavor starts kickin. In. It is like a gourmet cup of java for a few puffs and then you start sensing the chocolates that take you to the nub. Throughout it is consistently smooth and without any harshness. On my scale it ranks a 10 out of 10. construction is excellent. It is a heavy cigar in weight. The drag is excellent for such a packed cigar. The dark maduro color is not uniform but i was told that it is normal for naturally fermented maduro. No dyes or artificially induced colors on this one. After you are done there is one problem. You want more. This is a keeper.
Subject :: My experience
I have smoked many Cubans. Some not so good but most that i have smoked have been decent to excellent. From the mid 1990s till now the quality has deteriorated to the point of driving me to seek alternatives. I think that i have found it with this cigar. It is one of the best cubans that i have smoked that is not from cuba. Compared to many from cuba, this one performs better. The taste is outstanding and as the ash gets bigger, the taste gets better. I highly recommend that you try it.
Subject :: Top shelf
These were great. I really compare them to the best out there
Subject :: Size matters
The tobacco is incredibly powerful, and the smaller sizes are all in all just too strong. The 60 ring size of this one mellows it out a bit, and it's a fabulous smoke. Rate your own, folks, i give this a 10/10. i love it.
Subject :: big
This is a big one with lots of flavor. My new best friend. Great flavor.
Subject :: Cabinet selection chairman
A personal favorite of mine. It's an hour long smooth smoke and if you like a big ring gauge this is your smoke.
Subject :: Chairman
Have ordered the chairman several time. In the past, usually getting
two boxes at a time. I love the flavor as well as the ring gauge as
i have a particular affinity for large ring. I would like
to recommend this one to anyone who likes a cuban-style smoke with
a large ring gauge.
Subject :: A worthy smoke!
If you don't want to spend the $$ for a box before you try these fellas, try the cuban crafters sampler. It has a chairman in the pack. This is a very surprising stick, in a good way. Solid, thick, well-made and left me wanting another! Great long, slow burn, great taste, and feel. All the things you want in a satisfying smoke...waiting on my box! Get on the mailing list, sometimes these are discounted about 25%!
Subject :: These are unique
I live in a city where a wide variety of habanos are available, and have my favorite cuban cigars. But the 6x60 cc chairman is a unique smoke.
for me, the 60-gauge works, although some smokers may not prefer such a thick stick. When clipping, i find it best to wet the closed-end and use a sharp double-blade cutter to lessen the chance of a vertical wrapper-split. Triple-flame \"jet-engine\" butane lighters are the best way to get this baby started.
they burn beautifully, oodle of creamy smoke, full-bodied from the start but doesn\'t become overpowering as you reach the end. If you\'re a fan of large-ring gauge cigars, you can try one on the sampler or just cut to the chase and get a box. Imo, a winner and one of the best cigars cc sells.
Subject :: Awesome Smoke
I purchased a couple of CC Chairman\'s, last time I was in Miami - a few months ago. They\'ve been in my Humi since that time. Today, I had my first one - and I must say I\'m quite impressed! This is a full-bodied cigar, that burns evenly throughout. For me, it was about a 1 1/2 hour smoke - as I took my time and really enjoyed it. It\'s a full-flavored smoke - but not over-powering. I\'m a fan of the 60 ring gauge - and typically smoke the Oliva Serie V, Dbl Toro (also 6 X 60). The CC Chairman delivered. I will definitely be adding more of these to my rotation. If you\'re looking for a well-made, full-bodied, big cigar - look no further. I give this a 10.0.
Subject :: Great cigar
I love this cigar. It\'s a nice smoke for any time of the day. I always keep a box on hand. My friends also enjoy them as well.
