As earlier divulged, New World Cigars first hit the market in 2014. The essence of this wildly successful father and son coaction is a nod to the discovery of tobacco and its introduction to the world. According to history, in 1492 when Christopher Columbus encountered the Native Americans, they offered him gifts. Among the gifts were dried tobacco leaves. Later the same year, tobacco was introduced to Europe and to the rest of the world thereafter.
To pay homage to this phenomenal event, New World Cigars are adorned with a band depicting the moment when Christopher Columbus first arrived in America.New World Cigars are all medium to full-bodied stogies. They embody a chichi excursion through Nicaraguan tobacco with all its layered subtleties. Since the original New World Cigar, now named Oscuro, there have been 3 more major New World additions and countless vitola releases to date.
Now let's find out what New World Cigars are really like.
New World Cigars: Connecticut
New World Connecticut came soon after Oscuro in 2015. This time round, they did not box-press it.
As you can probably deduce, this stogie features a Connecticut Shade wrapper. This wrapper is grown in the US under mesh netting to mirror cloud cover. Belied under the wrapper is a San Andres Mexican leaf encasing Nicaraguan and Brazilian fillers. Mild nuances of this Connecticut Shade wrapper bring out tons of aromatic smoke and refreshing notes of lemon zest, coffee, sweet cedar, nuts, and a creamy finish.
New World Connecticut garnered incredible ratings. Cigar Snob gave it a 91 rating while Cigar Journal gave it a 92 rating and the Number 5 slot of the top 25 list of 2021.
Oh, talking about this quartet really got me peaking in my humidor to see which of these isn't there. It really is a tragedy to be without any of these given the affordability as well as quality and consistency.
