This sampler highlights the famed Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, named “Habano” because the seeds originate from Cuban, or Habana, tobacco strains. In Ecuador’s cloud-covered valleys, these Cuban-seed plants thrive in rich volcanic soil, producing smooth, oily leaves with depth and consistency. Expect flavors of (but not limited to) earth, cedar, gentle sweetness, and varying levels of spices. The natural shade and steady climate of Ecuador make it one of the best regions outside Cuba for cultivating world-class Habano wrappers.
