Three questions every cigar smoker knows

Did I like that one?

A month later the band is gone and so is the memory. aficio keeps every smoke: rating, flavors, draw, burn, pairing, notes and a photo.

What should I buy?

A shelf full of unfamiliar names. aficio shows a match % for any cigar in its catalog, based on what you actually enjoyed.

What is in my humidor?

Count, value, origins, strength spread, and the one cigar that suits your palate tonight.

Built around your palate

Most cigar apps count sticks. aficio learns taste.

A flavor profile that learns

Twelve flavor axes, from wood and leather to cream and pepper, built from every smoke you rate. It sharpens with each cigar.

Match % for any cigar

Your profile is compared with each cigar's aroma data. Humidor, catalog, recommendations: one number says how close it is to your taste.

Verified catalog of 5,000+ cigars

Wrapper, binder, filler, vitola, strength and aroma data. Only verified cigars are shown, and AI never writes the catalog. No invented facts.

The smoke ritual

Full-screen timer, flavor chips, draw and burn sliders, voice notes and a photo. Works offline and syncs later.

Scan a band to identify

Photograph a cigar band, a shelf tag or a receipt. The catalog proposes candidates and you confirm.

Drink pairing

Whiskey, rum, wine, beer, coffee or non-alcoholic: three suggestions chosen for the cigar you are about to light.
