This Nicaraguan puro is a bold evolution of the classic Havana VI line, the result of a four-year journey by master blender Pete Johnson to create something truly distinctive. It features a stunning, shade-grown Nicaraguan Corojo ’99 Rosado wrapper—the same prized leaf used on the exclusive Escasos line—over a core of aged Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos from the Garcia family farms. Handcrafted at the renowned My Father Cigars factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, this medium-to-full-bodied Robusto Grande delivers a complex and rewarding profile. The smoke opens with bold notes of red pepper, cedar, and roasted coffee, enriched by a delicate sweetness and refined floral undertones that define the Blue series. Layers of pecan, vanilla, honey, leather, and toasted oak unfold with a smooth, balanced finish, all supported by a slow, even burn and a consistently excellent draw. Cigar Aficionado awarded the No. 2 vitola a notable 90-point rating.
