cigar aficionado

Stogie devotee type

A cigar aficionado is someone with refined knowledge and passionate appreciation for cigars—their origins, construction, flavors, and proper enjoyment.

The term suggests connoisseurship rather than casual smoking: He's a cigar aficionado who can identify a Cuban by smell alone.

The phrase gained currency partly through the magazine of the same name.
