El Viejo Continente Mare Nostrum Culebras 5"3/4 * 30

A full-bodied cigar that offers notes of pepper, earth, wood, and tobacco sweetness. Its savory, Habano maduro wrapper covers a Nicaraguan Habano binder and filler leaves from Brazil and Nicaragua. This uniquely shaped cigar offers a new twist to a classic. Each Culebras comes with three entwined twisted cigars. But don’t worry! These oddly shaped sticks won’t affect your enjoyment. To smoke, just gently pull the cigars apart, cut, light and take delight in its rich aroma and flavor. The El Viejo Continente Mare Nostrum Culebras is handmade in Nicaragua. “Culebras” is Spanish for snakes.
