Blanco Liga Exclusiva De Familia comes with your choice of a Connecticut Shade or Broadleaf Maduro wrapper. The Connecticut version includes a Honduran-grown Connecticut leaf along with a Nicaraguan binder and a hand-selected mix of Nicaraguan long-filler leaves. This well-balanced experience is medium in body and is universally appealing. The dark and enticing maduro version is a spicier blend, with a Pennsylvania Broadleaf maduro wrapper that ensconces the same blend of Nicaraguan fillers as the Connecticut. You’ll luxuriate in deep notes of chocolate with a distinctly nutty finish. Have a taste of what the boss is enjoying with this exclusive selection.
Cigar Origin
Nicaragua
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.
