Like
their slogan states, Don Pepin cigars are "the art, tradition and
style of Cuba." All cigars bearing his name incorporate traditional
Cuban characteristics, from the entubado style bunching (folding the
filler tobaccos in an accordion fashion) to the triple caps used at the
head of each cigar. These traditional Cuban methods employed by Pepin
enable his cigars to burn and combust perfectly, which in turn creates
intense amounts of complexity followed by a smooth and enjoyably long
finish. Most Pepin blends are medium to full-bodied and fail to
disappoint even the most discerning aficionados.
My Father is no different in terms of quality, construction, and
complexity. This blend consists of specially selected tobacco grown at
the most prestigious farms in Esteli, Nicaragua. The wrapper is a
beautiful Ecuadorian grown Habano-Rosado leaf, which is combined with a
Nicaraguan binder to create a full-bodied complexity that is earthy with
spicy undertones but expels a phenomenal aroma. Each size comes packaged
in elegant boxes of 23, all featuring an old Cuban-style presentation.
