Quesada Tributo Manolin (Gordo) (6.5"x60) Pack of 5

Manuel 'Manolo' Quesada is on fire. After creating the original Dominican-made Romeo y Julieta, his time was spent caring for the legendary Fonseca brand, improving upon this fabled name for decades. But, it wasn't until his Casa Magna received a stunning 93-point rating, when he truly hit it big. With his next trick, the 90-rated Quesada Tributo.

The secret behind Quesada Tributo is the wrapper. This amazing 'hybrid' leaf is a fusion of four different tobacco seeds - Habana 2000, Habano Vuelta Arriba, Corojo, and Sumatra - and is grown beneath the natural mountain mists of Ecuador. This amazingly unique and innovative wrapper offers a level of flavor never before seen in handmade cigars. But Manolo didn't stop there. A second wrapper was added - Habano ligero - and together these two leaves conceal a bold blend of long-leaf ligeros from the Dominican and Nicaragua. The result: full-bodied, full-flavored greatness, achieving several 90-point ratings during its short (but soon to be storied) career. Each Tributo is bold and loaded with complexity. Deep notes of rich earth, coffee bean, pepper, leather, and nuts coat the palate with each puff, while a sweet nuance - almost like red wine - lingers long on the finish. Complex indeed, this is a must-try handmade.
