Description

The Chef Rick opens with rich notes of cedar, roasted nuts, and baking spice, layered over a steady core of earth and subtle natural sweetness. Medium-bodied with a smooth progression, it builds gradually, adding pepper and a touch of creaminess that keeps the profile balanced and composed from start to finish.

Part of West Tampa Tobacco Co.’s food scene-inspired series, Chef Rick continues the brand’s creative link between cigar blending and culinary craft, a concept rooted in founder Rick Rodriguez’s approach to blending as “cigar cooking.” Following Boliche Blvd. and Devil Crab, this limited one-and-done release uses a Habano 2000 wrapper over an Ecuador Sumatra-seed binder and a multi-region Nicaraguan filler blend, delivering a structured, flavorful smoke with a clear sense of identity.
