Gran Habano Corojo Vintage 2002

The right hand giveth one of the industry's tastiest under-the-radar blends. The left hand taketh away fears you'd never see a super-premium blend at such a deeply discounted price again.

So rest easy my man. This is the the 90-rated Corojo #5 blend composed of full-bodied, Habano-seed long-fillers from Nicaragua and Dominican but it boasts a juicy Nicaraguan-grown Corojo wrapper leaf cultivated back in 2002, one which has enjoyed an extended cedar-nap for the past 8 years. The outcome is virtuous: a deep series of rich, creamy flavors smacking of coffee, nuts, and earth tamed by the smooth, Cuban-esque qualities of a well-aged Corojo leaf. The smoke remains medium to full-bodied, but maintains a wonderful balance and long, elegant finish.

The price is out of this world. Nothing short of monumental.
