Cusano Corojo 97

We’re kicking things off with a bang here—this Cusano Corojo 97 is no rookie cigar. This dark and spicy Corojo has a smooth, silky texture and perfect construction. The real kicker in this smoke is the Ecuadorian Corojo wrapper, which has been lying in wait since the 1997 tobacco harvest! The Corojo leaf has been key to the legendary flavor of Cuban Cigars—the flavors derived from a true Corojo leaf are unparalleled by any other in the world, and the flavorful potency is absolutely unique to this tobacco. And then there’s what’s under the hood: the spicy Mexican Sumatra binder complements the 1997 wrapper's sharp flavor and results in an incredibly flavorful, spicy cigar. Expect this full-bodied cigar to be particularly bold for a Dominican, characterized by tons of spicy, rich flavors, but also balanced by woody, leathery notes, and a smooth, cedary finish. Match with an oaken XO cognac.
