The Serie R line is handmade in the Dominican Republic with a blend of Nicaraguan ligero and Dominican olor filler tobaccos that are aged several years longer than those from this line's original recipe, which makes these cigars more powerful and robust. They are finished with either an oily Ecuador Sumatra or a heartier Connecticut broadleaf maduro wrapper, both of which add to the bold yet very mellow flavors and underlying hints of spice. These smokes are characterized by their larger ring gauges, as well as their complexity, easy draw, and long finish. Definitely a real treat for the experienced smoker.
