La Caoba Extra Belicoso

La Caoba is the Spanish name for one of the world’s finest mahogany woods once grown only on Cuban soil. Today its one of Mike's Cigars special exclusive brands to honor the history of this long-forgotten Cuban brand and offer modern cigar aficionados an opportunity to enjoy what were once Cuba’s finest cigars. Like the great wines of France and other countries, the enduring quality of the La Caoba Extra cigar is realized through the careful blending of tobacco leaf and the precise, handmade creation of the final product. To achieve this, only the finest tobaccos from Esteli in Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic have been selected, fermented and carefully aged in rum barrels to replicate the unique aromas of the past. The La Caoba Extra cigars come in 20-count boxes where they have been aging for 22 months. Each cigar is wrapped in breathable cellophane to assure it will continue to mature and capture the sweet aromas of its Spanish cedar box. The La Caoba Extra is judged to be medium in flavor, while in order to capture the original craftsmanship of the once famous brand, the leaf and filler have been carefully arranged to produce a smooth balance of flavors like ginger, vanilla, cedar wood and chocolate, an easy draw, and a long creamy finish.
