The Cigar:Roma Craft (CroMagnon) Aquitaine Atlatl  (7.0 x 38)

The Specs:

Country Manufactured: Nicaragua
Factory: Fabrica de Tobacco NicaSueno
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Habano Ligero
Binder: Cameroon
Filler: Nicaragua


The Hype:

The Aquitaine contains the same long-filler, full-bodied blend found in the US Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapped CroMagnon, including its unique Cameroon binder, but the Aquitaine diverges from the original CroMagnon with its beautiful Ecuadorian Habano Ligero wrapper selected from the best tobacco the guys at RoMa Craft Tobac could find.

This eighth and ninth priming ligero leaf is thick, oily and has the most amazing texture. The filler tobaccos are made up from three separate growing regions in Nicaragua: Esteli, Condega and a small farm north of Esteli on the Honduran border. The use of these diverse tobaccos delivers the precise deep and rich tobacco flavors that RoMa Craft wanted to present in this exquisite blend.

Due Date: July 25th., 2018

Shipping Restrictions: US addresses only.

Thanks again to Chuck for taking this one on and providing the cigar. THANKS!! And happy smokin'  :smoker2:

I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.
