This is a cigar like no other. The tobacco used is cured in barns that burn hardwoods like oak and maple to infuse a totally unique flavor into the leaves. This original edition started the brand and is pleasantly medium bodied.
With attention to detail, the blend features Kentucky seed tobacco, grown and fire cured in Kentucky, along with Nicaraguan and Brazilian fillers. The cigar is then wrapped with a Mexican San Andres wrapper to round out the flavor profile.
The result is a smoking experience that is totally unique in the world of premium cigars.
What our headline doesn’t state about the great Java Brand is that this cigar was a joint collaboration between Rocky Patel and Jonathan Drew of Drew Estate fame! These two masters created a brand that is still going strong after 16 years!
The sharply box pressed Latte edition blend has been ever so slowly infused with just more than a hint of Mocha Java. This medium bodied, very smooth and deceivingly sweet cigar also has an amazing aroma as well.If you’re looking for a great smoking experience any time of the day or night, Java Latte a must try for sure! The old school pigtailed cap is a nice touch!
Wrapper – Connecticut shade / Binder and Filler – Nicaragua
