Espinosa Knuckle Sandwich The Chef's Special LE Box Pressed Figurado 5 pack
Named for the Portuguese word for "orange", Laranja Reserva
Cigars is renowned for its special Brazilian wrapper, an orange
color that creates an outstanding premium cigar. The idea was
Erik Espinoza's after discovering the unique wrapper while
searching for tobacco for his other lines. Not only did he take
notice of its color, but also the remarkable flavor profile it
provided. Crafted in Nicaraguan at AJ Fernandez San Lotano
factory, the focus of this blend is a rare wrapper leaf from
Reconcavo, Brazil.
THIS ITEM CANNOT BE SHIPPED INTO HAWAII OR UTAH. Featuring
Nicaraguan long-fillers and Nicaraguan binders, the Escuro Laranja
Reserva Escuro Corona Gorda (6" x 46) is a box-pressed cigar.
Adding to these tobaccos is a Brazilian wrapper with an orange hue,
which inspires the name "Laranja". A well-deserved 90-point rating
was given to the Corona Gorda, a medium- to full-bodied masterpiece
that has hints of oak, leather, coffee, and molasses.
5.5" x 56" Espinosa Laranja Reserva Escuro Robusto (5.5" x 56) is a
box-pressed cigar with Nicaraguan long-fillers and Nicaraguan
binder. A Brazilian wrapper with an orange hue inspires the name
"Laranja" because this cigar has a medium to full-bodied body with
hints of oak, leather, coffee, and molasses.
Differing from the rest of the Espinosa Premium Cigars lineup,
this particular cigar is crafted in the San Lotano factory in
Ocotal, Nicaragua. However, there is no compromise on the
excellent quality and sophistication that is synonymous with the
Espinosa brand. As with previous releases, the new Escuro
addition to the line takes its name from the appearance of its
wrapper, using the Portuguese word for "dark". A fitting choice
indeed! In 2018, Espinosa Premium Cigars launched a brilliant
expansion of their line with Laranja Reserva Escuro. This cigar
features the same bold and refined Nicaraguan long-fillers and
binder as its predecessor, but is expertly wrapped in a dark
Brazillian Mata Fina leaf. The result? A flawlessly box-pressed
masterpiece boasting a robust flavor profile complete with hints
of leather, earth, natural sweetness, espresso, cocoa, and
nuttiness. The well-constructed cigar burns evenly throughout,
enhancing your medium-full bodied experience. Embrace the darker
side of Espinosa's Laranja Reserva Escuro line, and treat your
palate to an unforgettable indulgence!

molasses as you enjoy this medium to full-bodied masterpiece.
In contrast to other Espinosa Premium Cigars lines, this cigar is
produced in the San Lotano factory in Ocotal, Nicaragua. Despite
this change in location, it maintains the exceptional quality and
refinement that the Espinosa name is known for. Keeping with the
tradition of naming cigars after their wrapper appearance, the
latest addition to the line is called Escuro, a Portuguese word
meaning dark - a fitting name indeed! In 2018, Espinosa Premium
Cigars introduced a brilliant extension to their line. The
Laranja Reserva Escuro features the same bold and refined blend
of Nicaraguan long-fillers and binder as its predecessor, but
with a beautiful Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper. This box-pressed
masterpiece offers a fuller-flavored profile marked by notes of
leather, earth, natural sweetness, espresso, cocoa, and
nuttiness. Its solid construction and even burn only enhance the
enjoyable medium-full bodied experience. Embrace the dark side of
Espinosa's Laranja Reserva Escuro line - your palate will surely
thank you!
