CigarPal — Beta

Why CigarPal

Built for cigar memory, not spreadsheets.

Notes and Excel can hold cigar data. CigarPal turns it into a useful smoking history: what you liked, what you paired it with, where you bought it, and what deserves a spot on your next shopping list.

60-second smoke log Start with the verdict, photo, price, pairing, and one note. The full tasting sheet stays optional.

Pairing memory Remember what worked with coffee, bourbon, whiskey, beer, food, or nothing at all.

Buy Again list Turn good smokes and maybes into a shopping shortlist sorted by confidence, rating, and price memory.

Band photos Attach a quick cigar or band photo so you can recognize it later.

Palate DNA See your favorite wrappers, best pairings, go-to stores, and strongest next-buy signal without building spreadsheets.

Early access

Private account backup

Create an account to back up your humidor.

Keep using guest mode instantly, or send yourself a secure sign-in link to back up your tasting notes, humidor, and buy-again list across devices.

Your journal is private by default. Export or delete your data anytime.

Guest mode is still available. Login adds backup and cross-device access.

Advanced encrypted sync

Private sync keys still work.

CigarPal can still save an encrypted cloud copy of your real cigar journal. Account backup is becoming the primary path; this remains here for people who prefer private-key sync.

Your cigar data is encrypted in the browser before it leaves the device. The server stores ciphertext, not readable cigar notes.

One quick note

Need help naming the flavor?

Tap any words that fit. They’ll drop into your quick note so you can name the flavor without overthinking it.

Not sure? Start broad: woody, creamy, sweet, peppery, earthy, or bitter — then save the smoke and refine it later.
