Each El Rico Habano starts with carefully selected long filler tobacco from Nicaragua. It is given a rich Nicaraguan binder, wrapped in either a specially aged natural sun-grown leaf from Ecuador or a dark Connecticut broadleaf maduro, and then aged again in a Spanish cedar room to maximize its deep, rich flavor. Ernesto’s personal taste embodies his penchant for what you may expect from this exquisite cigar - a bold, rich, one-of-a-kind flavor from start to finish and the cigar that is closest to his heart.
