Robusto Maduro 5X50

Description

This cigar is wrapped in a rich Maduro San Andrés leaf — dark, oily, and luxurious. Inside, the filler is a robust blend from Nicaragua, with Jalapa (both Seco and Ligero) and Estelí tobaccos. An Indonesian binder holds everything together, helping the cigar burn evenly and draw smoothly. BA Cigars 24

Flavor Profile

• Top notes: Right up front you’ll notice a natural sweetness from the Maduro wrapper — think chocolate, dark cocoa, and maybe a touch of molasses. BA Cigars 24

• Mid‐smoke: The Jalapa Ligero kicks in with a peppery spice, balanced by smoother, more mellow tones from Seco. Estelí contributes earth, leather, and some mineral depth. BA Cigars 24

• Finish: The end is warm and lingering, maintaining that spicy core but mellowing into dark coffee, bittersweet cocoa, and maybe a faint leather note. BA Cigars 24

Pairings & Better Enjoyment

To get the best out of this cigar:

• Pair with a strong, dark roast coffee or espresso to match the chocolate & cocoa notes.

• For something a little stiffer, a dark rum or bourbon would compliment the sweetness and spice well.

• Let it rest properly in a humidor (65-70% RH) so the Maduro wrapper smooths out and doesn’t become sour.

• Smoke slowly — the strength ramps up. Take your time so the flavors can develop fully.
