[edit] History and Background
The development of this proprietary brand was begun in 2004 by the in-house blending team. In early 2006, the company sought out Pepin Garcia and with his aid and that of his son, Jaime, the desired final blend was obtained. It was introduced in late February of 2007.[1] The cigars are manufactured in Estelí, Nicaragua, at Tabaclera Cubana (TABACUBA).[1] This brand is one in a series of brands, called House Blends, developed by Cigar.com and made for them by various manufacturers.[2]
[edit] Description
Full bodied, the wrapper is a Nicaraguan Corojo, the binder is Honduran and the filler is Nicaraguan.[1] The cigars are packaged celloed in slide-top cabinet-style boxes of 20.
