Viva La Vida Connecticut Robusto 5" * 54

Earth, cedar, cream, white pepper, and a subtle sweetness form the core of Viva La Vida Connecticut, a lively medium blend with surprising depth. Don’t let the golden wrapper fool you; this cigar packs a peppery kick that sets it apart from typical Connecticuts. Blended by the remarkably popular and talented Artesano Del Tobacco in collaboration with AJ Fernandez, it's an after-dinner option for Connecticut loyalists who want some kick and a pleasantly bold curveball for maduro smokers looking to explore new territory.

• Cigar Wrapper
  Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade

  The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
  Ecuador is the perfect place to grow wrappers, because it is located on the Equator! And it has rich soils too. The weather conditions, with a nearly permanent cloudy sky, provide a natural shade, protecting the wrapper plants from sunshine and allowing the tobacco to grow thin and light. This climate allows tobacco growers to grow Connecticut-seed wrapper in the shade without shade cloths, resulting in more economical wrapper.
• Cigar Binder
  Nicaragua

  The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
  Nicaraguan cigar binders are produced mainly in Esteli and Jalapa, both lands with volcanic soil and excellent climate for growing tobacco. Binders grown in Jalapa have sweet undertones. Corojo, Habana2000, Criollo, and Maduro binders are all produced in Nicaragua.
• Cigar Filler
  Nicaragua

  Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
