Chimolly The 'Dynasty' Series | Cigar Reviews by HB Cigars

I don't know about you, but every single time I say Chimolly I say "holy" right before it. That's right, we're reviewing the Holy Chimolly. Why do I do such a thing? I have absolutely no idea. Maybe ask your mom. Founded in 2024 by Zhuofeng Weng, Chimolly started out as a cigar accessory company making handmade porcelain ashtrays before storming the scene with some bangers of sticks. I've worked my way through their entire catalog, and every single stick hits, and they hit real nice. Can you find these anywhere? Probably not. If you can, should you buy them? Probably yes.

The Ecuadorian Corojo wrapper presents with a beautiful sheen and excellent construction from the Mi Havana Factory in Estelí. The blue band distinguishes this Dynasty from their red-banded Pangu sibling. Chimolly's "It's all about texture" philosophy delivers immediately - the smoke has a creamy, syrupy quality that coats the palate like an overzealous CBD salesman at a farmers market. Which is probably why I LOVE these sticks. Texture over flavor every day. FIGHT ME! No draw issues, no burn problems, just solid construction from a brand that's newer than most of your streaming subscriptions.

🎢 FLAVOR JOURNEY

FIRST THIRD: THE PEANUT GALLERY

roasted peanuts, light spice/retro, bread

Roasted peanuts dominate the opening, creating that ballpark atmosphere without the $15 beer. Light spice tickles the retrohale while bread notes provide a foundation. The combination creates a PB sandwich profile minus the jelly - basically what you ate in college when the dining hall was closed, but at least this time it's intentional.

SECOND THIRD: THE NUTTY PROFESSOR

almonds, toast, light spice/retro, leather, light dried fruit

The peanuts evolve into almonds like your friend's dietary restrictions after their third wellness retreat. Toast replaces bread, adding a charred element that pairs beautifully with the continuing light spice. Leather enters alongside hints of dried fruit. The Mexican San Andrés binder shows its influence here, adding depth while maintaining that signature creamy texture.

FINAL THIRD: CEDAR POINT

charred cedar, toast, leather

Charred cedar takes command, bringing campfire vibes without the awkward silence of actual camping. Toast maintains its presence while leather intensifies. The Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers finally show their full character, delivering a robust but balanced finish that lasts longer than most people's gym memberships.

🏆 THE VERDICT:

A- TIER

Flavor: A

Construction: A-

Availability: D (Good luck finding these)

Price: B+

For a company that launched in 2024, the Dynasty punches above its weight class. The blend shows sophistication beyond what you'd expect from a second release. At $16-18 it's priced like it knows what it's doing - bold for a newcomer but the quality backs up the confidence like a trust fund kid who actually earned their promotion.

📊BOTTOM LINE

The Holy Chimolly Dynasty delivers a journey from roasted nuts to charred wood that feels both familiar and unique. This isn't just another Nicaraguan factory pumping out me-too blends for Instagram cigar bros. Weng has created something with actual identity, even if finding these requires the dedication of someone hunting for Taylor Swift tickets. The texture philosophy isn't just marketing - it's a legitimate differentiator in a market more saturated than your uncle's Facebook feed with political memes.

TLDR: If you can find em, buy em - just remember to say "holy" first.
