Twenty years in tobacco. Four generations of the Rico family. One cigar to mark the milestone. The vitola names tell the story: El Sueño was the dream, El Desafío was the struggle, El Triunfo is the success. This is the largest and boldest expression of the 20th Aniversario line, a 6×60 Gran Gordo that George Rico waited years to release right.
The wrapper is a shade-grown Corojo from Jalapa, Nicaragua, aged four years before rolling. Underneath sits a Nicaraguan binder and a three-country filler blend from Colombia, Nicaragua and Peru. Medium in body but complex in development — toasted bread and cashew on the open, cedar and cream through the mid, white pepper and a faint molasses sweetness on the retrohale. The 6×60 ring gauge gives the blend room to breathe. Production is capped at 4,000 boxes per quarter, allocated to only 200 retailers worldwide.
