Five years after Matt Booth (owner of Room101) decided to give thanks to his loyal followers with the appropriately titled The Big Payback cigar, he has resurrected the brand once more. A lot has changed since the original release, including Room101's departure from the cigar industry and a return shortly thereafter, now partnering with a much more diverse selection of manufacturers throughout Nicaragua, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic. This has enabled a wider range of smoking profiles, including the tweaked blend of The Big Payback Maduro.
As with the original release, the cigars are handcrafted in Honduras and offer large doses of flavor in a remarkably low price range. But that's where the similarities end, with the production now being handled at the STG Danlí factory, all-new sizes, altered packaging, and a new overall blend makeup. Where the previous Payback cigars sported all-Nicaraguan tobaccos, the updated cigars showcase a diverse, multinational blend. The fillers are sourced from Honduras, Nicaragua, and the DR; this concoction is bound in a Connecticut Shade leaf and finalized in a gritty Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper.
The Big Payback Maduro maintains Matt Booth's vision of offering a high flavor/cost ratio to enthusiasts, showcasing a rich, full-flavored smoke with a medium to medium-plus body. Flavors range from notes of chocolate and pepper, to gritty qualities of earth and espresso, as well as clove and sweet caramel.
*Please not that all SKUs have two product lines. The top line is the box/bundle count. The second line is less than a box/bundle count and will be shipped as loose cigars in a humidified bag.

BOOOOFYYYY! Been a fan of Matt booths cigars for 8 years now. If you like a robust cigar with some tantalization this is it!

The first one I’ve ever had I threw it out the window I don’t know if I was in a bad mood or if the look of the wrapper ruined it for me. I couldn’t get into it, I guess I expected more from Matt. The second was better but the wrapper was still ugly. I won’t buy them I’ll just let them come in sampler packs.

It's a pretty average maduro. Rich earth flavor. Burn is even. It's a good cigar when golfing or lawn work for me.
