Savinelli Special Selection

Seeing the name of this particular cigar may have you wondering, “A Special Selection? Don’t all my cigars qualify as special selections?” And we commend you for being so astute. But let us explain… The regular Savinelli Nicaraguan Reserve is itself exquisite and unique. However, this line, the Savinelli "Special Selection" edition, is a cut above. They are produced in extremely limited quantities. How limited? Well, a mere 12 out of 300 bales of wrapper leaf are deemed worthy of the "Special Selection" designation, and production was limited to just 1,500 boxes—total! The Toro before you has been wrapped in a rustic, dark Habano-seed Corojo wrapper and filled with a rich, well aged blend of 100% Nicaraguan long-leaf tobaccos. Anything else special about it you wonder? Certainly—it’s made by the eminently talented hands of Kiki Berger, maker of Cupido and 5 Vegas, and is a critical darling of the industry. Expect a peppery flavor with a smooth, creamy texture and ample flavor. Look for this medium-to-full-bodied smoke to finish super smooth with moderate levels of spice and a nice woody aftertaste. We suggest you pair it up with a Porfidio Anejo Margarita on the rocks.
