L'Atelier Extension de la Racine ER17 5"7/8 * 52

Tatuaje's Pete Johnson has once again helped blend this year's release of his sub-brand L'atelier's Extension de la Racine line. Translated to "Extension of the Roots", each year introduces a different size for this anticipated series, and for 2017 smokers can expect a slightly small-ish toro size, measuring 5"7/8 by 52. Utilizing a binder containing tobacco seed from Sancti Spiritus grown in Ecuador, this cigar provides a taste rarely found elsewhere. Medium to full-bodied, you can expect a naturally spicy sweetness, with notes of coffee, cinnamon, and leather. Make sure you experience this year's offering before they're gone.
