The Punch Egg Roll is a limited edition robusto that will pique your curiosity and satisfy it. A dark, toothy and slightly maduro USA Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper surrounds the Egg Roll’s Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed binder. And if that’s not enough to make your mouth water, this Egg Roll is stuffed with the finest filler tobaccos from four countries: Dominican Republic, Mexico, USA and Colombia. This stick’s shaggy foot is made to resemble the cabbage you’ll find in a real egg roll, but you won’t find any cabbage in this Egg Roll. Medium strength, the Punch Egg Roll has an excellent draw, and a flavor profile that hints of black pepper, earth and underscored with an undeniable sweetness. A bundle of 25 comes packaged in an eye-catching Chinese food take-out carton. Peel off the band and you’ll be treated to a fortune. But your real fortune comes, if you’re lucky enough to get your hands on a limited edition Punch Egg Roll.
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 Color
Maduro
Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Maduro wrapper can go from dark coffee brown with a reddish tint to blackish brown (the latter also called Oscuro).
Wrapper
Mexican San Andres Maduro
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Mexican tobacco is very dark and the best leaves can be used as maduro wrappers. San Andres Maduro is a thick, medium bodied dark leaf, also called San Andres Morron. Like Connecticut Broadleaf, San Andres Maduro is stalk cut and used for binder and wrapper.
Binder
Nicaraguan Esteli
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
The Esteli region of Nicaragua is well-regarded for producing some of the finest tobacco in the world. Tobacco grown in this area is valued for its aroma, flavor, and strength.
