Bugatti Potere

A smooth finish, guaranteed 

When I first got these samples on my desk, I have to admit that I just had no clue what “Potere” could mean. Luckily, the internet exists, and a little search engine told me that potere is Italian for “power.” Makes sense now that I think about it – this French supercar brand has been delivering powerfully great cigars to us for years, and Potere is no different. 

Now, let me clear up any confusion, though this cigar’s name means “power” it’s far from a powerhouse blend. Instead, Bugatti Potere delivers a charming Connecticut based blend to those who give it a shot. Up top, a pristine Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper leaf covers Cuban-seed, Nicaraguan long-fillers and binder. Toasting this silky handmade, you’ll find a sweet earthiness with hints of pepper and nuts. More of a medium-bodied Connecticut, Potere easily beats out the competition when it comes to flavor and value.
