Smoking Experience

First Third

Instant espresso shot with bittersweet chocolate notes. The wide draw pumps out creamy smoke that coats your tongue - no "warm up" period needed. Watch out for that nicotine buzz creeping in early.

Middle Third

Earthier tones emerge through the cocoa base. Think damp soil after rain mixed with molasses sweetness. Burn line stays razor-sharp despite the fat ring gauge.

Final Third

Leather and black pepper take center stage. The last inch gets intense - seasoned smokers might push through, but newbies should tap out before the tar buildup.

Maduro Alternatives

  • Padrón Maduro No.35 (4.5"x50): Bolder espresso kick, tighter roll

  • Liga Privada Papas Fritas (4.5"x44): Smokier profile, smaller ring gauge

Tobacco Origins

That signature sweetness? Thank Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper aged to perfection. Nicaraguan fillers from Estelí and Jalapa add pepper spice and earthy depth. Rolled in Oliva's Estelí factory - same hands that make their premium lines.
