Joya De Nicaragua Cabinetta

The cigars are produced by Joya De Nicaragua since 1968. As a result of the US trade embargo against Cuba, many emigrants from Cuba came to Nicaragua in the 1960s and, with their know-how, launched the Nicaraguan cigar industry. Over the next two decades, cigars from the Central American country were very popular in the USA, not just as a substitute for Habanos. With the civil war of the 70s and 80s, Nicaragua unfortunately disappeared somewhat from the cigar-making map.

The first cigar series to be reintroduced was Antaño 1970 Joya De Nicaragua, which has been authorized to be sold again under Joya De Nicaragua since 2002 because Dr. Cuenca acquired the naming rights for the United States, which came to an American company during the turmoil of the civil war.

Visit Joya De Nicaragua Cabinetta was introduced in 2011 and is one of the softest series in the company's portfolio. The special feature is the two-tone cape which is not used here for visual reasons, but to give the cigars a tasty touch. At first, you smoke the putty and wrapper leaf of Nicaraguan tobaccos with a Connecticut Shade wrapper from Ecuador. The second wrapper, a Nicaraguan criollo, comes into play under the cigar ring.

This leads to the fact that Joya De Nicaragua Cabinetta begins with very mild notes of cocoa, earth and tobacco, becoming stronger as the smoke progresses. The final third is very Nicaraguan, with peppery notes predominating.

The complete range of cigars Joya De Nicaragua can be found here. In addition to the series presented here, the Joya De Nicaragua Clasico are certainly the sweetest, as is the >Joya De Nicaragua Red series introduced in 2014.
