Carlos Torano Cigars is now in its fourth generation and according to Carlos Jr. “you have to love the taste of your cigar in order to sell the cigar…although we are concerned with ‘market’ taste, we have to first feel that we have created an exceptional blend before we even consider marketing the cigar”.
The stronger the flavor, the more complex the tobacco blends and although filler tobacco has a major influence on a cigar’s taste, it is generally accepted that more than 50% of a cigar’s taste comes from the wrapper.
Carlos Torano understands that U.S. cigar lovers are more willing to try darker, stronger Maduro and Indonesian wrappers. You’ll find Carlos Torano Cigars primarily use wrappers from Connecticut, Ecuador, Nicaragua and Indonesia.
