Country of Origin: Nicaragua
Size: 6½” x 48
Strength: Medium-plus
Wrapper: Brazil
Binder & Filler: Nicaragua
Dominant Flavors: Sweet spice, orange zest, nutmeg, graham cracker, light pepper
Where it’s at: Sweet from the get-go with some light pepper spice. Well-rounded with flavors of tangy citrus, nutmeg, and graham cracker. Smoke is smooth, toasty and dense. Cigar burns well revealing a firm, light grey ash. Base flavors are consistent throughout underscored by sweet spice and a light, peppery tanginess on a long finish. One of those cigars you can enjoy without having to think about or play with. Great with coffee, but this Espinosa cigar should pair well with just about everything.
