Heritage 1492 Tradicionales Edicion Especial is a special super-premium cigar that’s made in the Dominican Republic using a blend of Brazilian Cubra wrapper, Dominican binder and Dominican and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos that have all been aged at least five years.
After each cigar has been rolled, it’s set aside in an aging room for an additional year. Those 12 months of extra aging for Heritage 1492 Tradicionales Edicion Especial cigars provide the blend a little more spice, intensity and complexity, placing it squarely in the medium full-bodied range. It also allows the individual tobacco components more time to marry, creating a delicate taste with dominant honey and walnut flavors as well as hints of oriental spices and the aroma of freshly baked bread.
