Tasting Notes

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: Cameroon

New World Cameroon, released in 2018 is the last release thus far. This box-pressed line is special because it’s the first time AJ Fernandez ever used a Cameroon wrapper. Filler and binder are both Nicaraguan.

New World Cameroon is rich in flavor and depth. Expect loads of decadent natural sweet tobacco notes, pepper, earth, oak, and light toasty creaminess. Both Cigar Aficionado and Cigar Snob magazine rated it at 90 while Cigar Journal gave it a 92.

New World Cameroon comes in 7 sizes including Short Robusto (4x48), Double Robusto (5.5x54), Toro (6x50), Gordo (6x60), Torpedo (6.5x52), Churchill (7x48), and Petit Lancero (5x38).

Final Thoughts

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.
