Artesano Del Tobacco has carved out a niche in the premium cigar market by seamlessly blending traditional tobacco craftsmanship with modern innovation. Renowned for its artisanal approach, the brand has quickly become a favorite among cigar aficionados seeking both heritage and a fresh twist in every draw.
The El Pulpo The Eel is the latest release from Artesano Del Tobacco, maintaining the core blend of the original El Pulpo but with a notable twist, a lancero! The Mexican San Andrés wrapper takes center stage, enhancing the leather and cedar notes. There is also a hint of dry plum or raisin on the finish, adding a touch of natural sweetness.
El Pulpo, the "Octopus" in Spanish, isn't just any cigar. This Nicaraguan masterpiece, crafted by A.J. Fernandez and Artesano Del Tobacco in 2023, ranked #10 on Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 Cigars of the Year, making it a must-try for discerning smokers.
What makes it special? Exquisitely aged Mexican San Andrés wrapper. Unlike typical Mexican wrappers, El Pulpo boasts an extended aging process, resulting in a richer, deeper flavor profile. This meticulous dedication is why the brand took its time to come to market.
