FLOR DE NICARAGUA
The Sacuanjoche is the national flower of Nicaragua. A delicate but powerful symbol that represents the soul and origin of Joya de Nicaragua as the most Nicaraguan cigar factory. Indescribably complex, this cigar will satisfy the most selective palates.
This medium to full-bodied smoke begins with a rich spicy flavour and develops dramatically into a mellower smoking experience. Subtle wood and leather combine in this medium-bodied, creamy smoke. Hints of spice and dried fruits linger.
Profile: Complex and iconic.
