Since Nicaragua's soil and climate are just so, the Criollo 98 grown Aged Nicaraguan Ligero Long Filler offers a distinct flavor and a certain "kick" that many cigar smokers know and love. This variety was grown in the Esteli region of Nicaragua.
This is a premium cigar filler that is used in many hand-rolled premium cigar filler blends. Roll your own cigars!
This Nicaraguan Ligero Cigar Long Filler is aged to perfection.
Being the thicker and stronger of the long filler types, the Nicaraguan ligero is what provides the bold flavor and spice in premium cigars, even more so than other ligeros grown in other regions.
Being a leaf from the last priming, our Nicaraguan Ligero tobacco leaf is thicker and stronger than its counterpart, the Nicaraguan seco tobacco leaf. This leaf is grown from the Criollo 98 tobacco seed, comes from the region of Esteli. This area, set at the highest point in the valley, is known for its strong tobacco. The leaf grown in this region carries a noticeable spice, as well as thicker leaf. This is a result from the dense, black soil its grown in and the increased amount of sunlight from its higher altitude.
"I ordered a few pounds of virginia and turkish tobacco from you folks and just processed my first batch. I have to say I am floored by the quality. I've been smoking pipes for more than 20 years now, so I know good tobacco -- and your tobacco is top shelf. I wasn't sure what to expect but not only is your tobacco tasty, it also has a nicotine kick like an angry mule.
I am very impressed. Thank you. I'll be referring my friends to you, and you can be sure I'll be ordering from you in the future.
