Onyx Reserve

The Onyx Reserve is one of two cigars we are featuring this month from Altadis USA. They are one of the largest cigar producers in the US, they own about 40% of the market share in the United States, and sell over two billion cigars a year. This box-pressed toro's wrapper is made from blackened Connecticut Broadleaf, the binder is from Nicaragua, and the filler is a blend of Dominican, Nicaraguan, and Peruvian long fillers. It is a rich, full-bodied smoke with some leathery tones, slightly peppery, a hint of nuttiness, and toasted characteristics. Overall, a great smoke that will hit your palate from all directions. Consider pairing it with a semi-sweet, woody port or robust, roasted Porter.
