The wrapper is a very silky Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade known for its mild flavor and slightly sweet character. Inside is a savory blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan long-fillers complemented by a Dominican Criollo 98 binder leaf that brings some spice but does not overpower this blend. The smoke is ultra-smooth and well-balanced, with a woody, herbal character, and a suggestion of sweetness on the finish. A great any-time-of-day cigar.

El Criollito (The UnCuban)

At the IPCPR (cigar retailer trade show) in 2018 Abe Flores from PDR Cigars noticed I was smoking a Monte Cristo #2 from Cuba and asked if I would compare it to the new cigar he just brought into the US that he’d been selling in Europe. As I tried the cigar I told him I’d like the real cigar he wanted my insight on because the cigar he had given me tasted JUST LIKE the Monte #2 from Cuba I was smoking. He insisted the cigar I was smoking was in fact his El Criollito. I was BLOWN AWAY at the flavor which tasted just like some of the premium Cubans I’d smoked before. This cigar is the best UNCUBAN cigar that actually tastes’s Cuban in flavor.
