Punch Golden Era

Punch Golden Era Robusto 5 * 50, Box of 20

The Punch Golden Era cigar is a Honduran puro that is packed with Corojo tobacco, which is prized for its deep brown color, barely visible veins, and rich flavor. However, this tobacco is susceptible to blue-mold disease, which means it provides a low yield making the tobacco highly coveted. The tobacco for the Golden Era is grown at the JRE Tobacco Farm. The cigars are handmade at JRE’s Fabrica de Puros Aladino factory in Honduras. Both the farm and factory are owned by the Eiroa family, who are well-known for their expertise in managing Corojo tobacco. The Punch Golden Era cigar’s name is a reference to the “golden age” of cigars and the key role Corojo tobacco played in shaping that period (which ran from the late 1800s to the early 1900s).

Cigar Origin
Honduras
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Honduras, a Central American country which shares a border with Nicaragua, is widely known in the premium cigar industry as the ideal place to grow Cuban and Connecticut seed tobaccos. Danli and the Jamastran Valley is considered the heart of Honduras’ cigar industry. The Jamastran Valley is known for producing a full-bodied tobacco that draws strong comparisons to the tobacco grown in the Pinar del Rio region of Cuba. This same region is also known for its Connecticut shade grown and Corojo shade grown tobacco. In addition, Honduras produces Cuban-seed sun grown filler tobaccos of the highest quality.

Wrapper
Honduran
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Honduran cigar wrapper has the reputation of great quality, with wrapper leaf being grown in the Jamastran, Talanga and San Agustin valleys. Some of the wrappers being grown in Honduras include Corojo, Honduran Claro, Honduran Criollo, Honduran Jamastran Viso Rosado, Honduran San Agustin Havana Seed and San Agustin Ligero.
Corojo
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Corojo wrapper was first developed in Cuba in the 1930s and quickly became popular as the wrapper on some of the best cigars. By the end of the 90s, Cuba stopped growing Corojo wrapper because of its susceptibility to pests and diseases. Ironically, Corojo wrapper has since become more popular outside of Cuba, as it has been replicated in tobacco farms in Nicaragua, Honduras, Ecuador and the Dominican Republic.
Binder
Honduras Corojo
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
Honduran Corojo is primarily shade-grown and used for wrappers as well as binders. It is valued for its flavor, dark brown color, consistency, and barely visible veins.
Filler
Corojo
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
