Ugly Coyote Cigars

If you’ve ever stumbled across Ugly Coyote Cigars, you know they’re not trying to win awards for flashy packaging or hype. What they do deliver is a solid, flavorful smoke that feels a little rugged — the kind of cigar you toss in your pocket for a fishing trip, a round of golf, or just hanging out on the porch. I remember lighting one up during a backyard BBQ — nothing fancy, just a simple smoke that paired perfectly with a cold beer. That’s kind of the whole vibe: laid back and easygoing.

Flavor Profile

Don’t expect dainty flavors here. Ugly Coyote tends to run earthy and bold, with some spice tucked in depending on the blend. They’re not overly complex, but that’s part of the charm. You light one up, and it’s straightforward: plenty of smoke, a nice draw, and a flavor that stays consistent. Some smokers say they pick up touches of cocoa or sweetness here and there, especially in the flavored versions, but at the core, you’re getting an honest, no-frills tobacco taste. Personally, I’ve found the sweetness pairs nicely with a cup of coffee in the morning.

Craftsmanship

Ugly Coyotes aren’t rolled to be showpieces for a glass humidor — and that’s okay. They’re machine-made cigars with a rustic edge, designed for everyday smoking rather than a once-a-year celebration. Still, they’re dependable. The burn is usually steady, the draw easy, and you don’t have to babysit it while you’re trying to relax. For the price point, they punch above their weight. I’ve had a few runs that burned a little quicker than I expected, but honestly, that’s part of the charm — you light another and keep going.

Experience

This is the cigar you bring along when you don’t want to overthink it. Crack open a 5-pack, pass a couple to your buddies, and you’ve got the perfect smoke for swapping stories, tinkering in the garage, or kicking back with a cold drink. One of my friends keeps a bundle in his tackle box — not because they’re rare or precious, but because they’re reliable, easy to enjoy, and you don’t feel guilty lighting up more than one in a day. They’re casual smokes, meant for everyday enjoyment, not locked away for “special occasions.”

Final Take

Ugly Coyote isn’t a luxury brand, and that’s exactly why people love it. It’s consistent, flavorful, and easy on the wallet — which makes it a great companion cigar. If you want a reliable stick for your downtime, Ugly Coyote delivers without trying too hard. It’s the kind of cigar you don’t brag about, but you end up recommending anyway.
