Cuesta-Rey Centenario Pyramid No. 9 Maduro Cigar (6.25 x 52)

Cuesta Rey cigars commemorate Angel LaMadrid Cuesta's commitment to handmade cigars. He opened up his first cigar factory in 1884, and quickly earned a reputation as one of the greatest handmade cigar craftsmen of his day. Cuesta-Rey cigars were once the official cigar of 19th century Spanish King Alfonso XIII, and Señor Cuesta was honored with the title, "Tobacco Purveyor for the Spanish King and Court." The Centenario Pyramid No. 9 Maduro is produced by JC Newman Cigar Company, and is hand-rolled as a Belicoso by the skilled artisans at Tabacalera A. Fuente in the Dominican Republic. They feature a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper overtop of Dominican binder and filler leaves. All tobaccos have been aged on average for five years, and once they are rolled into cigars every Cuesta Rey Centenario Collection cigar is aged inside a special cedar lined humidor for 120 days. You can expect a medium body with a sweet, spicy smoke once you light it up. The Centenario line is also offered with a Shade-Grown Connecticut wrapper, but the same binder and filler leaves.
