Aptly named, the Cu-avana Punisher was created by renowned master blenders Manuel Quesada and Nestor Plasencia to be a strong, potent, full-bodied offering to add to the catalog of otherwise mellow blends from Cu-avana. Although it is safe to assume it is produced in Nicaragua, the blend for the Cu-avana Punisher is kept mostly secret, with the only sure knowledge being that it packs a whole lot of Nicaraguan ligero tobaccos within its powerhouse profile. Certainly not for the faint of heart, make sure to smoke the Punisher on a full stomach... lest encountering another form of punishment.
