While many of Erik Espinosa’s cigars are rightfully classified as medium to full-bodied in taste, his ability to reach out and offer wonderfully blended entries to those folks who enjoy mild cigars is evident with this edition. The Crema is the first Connecticut encased offering in the Espinosa Portfolio. It’s made with Nicaraguan binders and fillers and wrapped in a beautiful Ecuadorian grown Connecticut seed wrapper. This slow-burning mild to mellow stick yields a buttered bread smoothness with a bit of sweetness and mild spice and coffee flavor. Enjoy this great stick….BIG TIME!!

This gently box-pressed Candela wrapped edition is an “out of the box” stick that deserves your attention. I can only think of two other grass colored cigars that I’ve enjoyed. This one is my favorite. Topped with a dark brown head cap, the undisclosed fillers and binder clearly produce a powerful combination of sweetness and spice resulting in a medium to full-bodied stick that gains strength and intensity as you move along. Buckle up!!

This box-pressed beauty has proved somewhat elusive over the years. It comes, then goes away for a while for a tweak, then returns. Erik Espinosa is a master blender who realizes his cigars can be better and isn’t afraid to make what he feels are improvements. What makes this edition special is that he reached out to his friend, A.J. Fernandez to collaborate with. The result is a Cuban style medium to full-bodied stick yielding a complex combo of espresso, cocoa, and peppery spices. As with Erik’s other offerings, if you have a favorite size, let us know and we’ll get it for you!

As accomplished as Erik Espinosa’s blending abilities have been proven over the years, this edition shows us just how creative he is. When he first encountered the orange colored “Laranja” Brazilian wrapper, he was so intrigued with its overall characteristics he decided to produce an entire cigar line encased in it. The result achieved a 94 rating and Top 25 placement in 2016. This medium to full bodied cigar is delightfully different. The bright, zesty and uniquely citrus-like tastes are balanced with a natural sweetness that’s wonderful. Enjoy this great stick….BIG TIME!
