Mayans Toro

The Mayans Toro you have was inspired by the FX show Mayans M.C. If you don’t know anything about the show, FX Networks describes it as: “Set in a post-Jax Teller world, Ezekiel “EZ” Reyes (JD Pardo) is a prospect in the Mayans M.C. charter on the Cali/Mexi border. Once the golden boy with the American Dream in his grasp, EZ is trying to reconcile with his brother ‘Angel’ (Clayton Cardenas) while searching for the truth behind their mother’s death. Meanwhile, their father ‘Felipe’ (Edward James Olmos) is struggling to lead his sons down a righteous path.”

This hardcore smoke hails from Nicaragua and features a perfectly blended mix of Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers, a zesty Nicaraguan binder, and a beautiful Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. Once lit, you’ll notice medium to full bodied notes of rich earth, chocolate, pepper, and wood. This smoke is just bursting with flavor and pairs wonderfully with a Malbec.

The Nicaraguan cigar industry originated when Cuban cigar makers escaped the revolution and re-established their livelihood in Nicaragua with Cuban-seed tobacco. Blessed with dark, rich soil, their new home was ideal for tobacco cultivation and Nicaragua quickly became known for cigars that rivaled Cuban quality. Unfortunately, revolution and war came to Nicaragua in the 1980s and devastated the industry, but it’s rebounded dramatically and is once again producing tobacco considered by many to be the finest in the world.

The Esteli Valley is in many ways the heart of Nicaraguan production and is known for its very powerful and spicy tobacco. The Jalapa Valley produces arguably the finest tobacco in the country: somewhat sweeter and less intense than Esteli, but extremely complex. The tobacco of the Condega Valley is often described as a blend of the other two regions.
