La Habanera

The history of the La Habanera goes back many decades to 1902. Handmade in Santiago, Dominican Republic, the brand used to be owned by the Dominican government and was made in the same cigar factory that the Pleiadas brand is rolled. The La Habanera Corona is rolled with 100% Dominican filler tobaccos and a handsome golden shade Connecticut wrapper. We found it to be a perfect example of a smooth, mellow, Dominican smoke. It’s a well constructed, with no soft spots and the oily wrapper shows signs of proper aging. You’ll find that it produces a fair amount of smoke and has a pleasant woody aroma. Overall, a very satisfying, medium bodied smoke. Try pairing it with a dry Chardonnay or a hoppy India Pale Ale.
