Description
My Father Cigars, maker of the 2012 Cigar of the Year Flor de las Antillas, has announced a new cigar. The La Antiguedad Toro (Spanish for The Antiquity) is blended with filler tobaccos from three areas in Nicaragua ? San Rafael, Las Quebradas and San Jose ? all on farms privately owned by the Garcia family. It has a double binder, one of Nicaraguan Criollo and one of Nicaraguan Corojo. “Everything is grown by us except the wrapper,” says company vice president Janny Garcia. The wrapper is a perfectly paired Ecuadoran Habano leaf.
“This box-pressed cigar is a strong and hearty smoke full of baker’s chocolate, roasted coffee beans and earth, but balanced by floral sweetness.”
