Product Description
The Perla del Mar Corojo Double Toro is a stunning addition to the historic brand originally founded in Cuba. Revived by the legendary J.C. Newman family, this line celebrates the rich heritage of premium cigars with a modern Nicaraguan twist. While the brand initially gained fame for its mellow Shade wrapper, the Corojo expression was crafted for those seeking a more robust and complex smoking experience. Each cigar is meticulously box-pressed at the J.C. Newman PENSA factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, ensuring a slow, cool burn and a perfect draw.
The flavor profile of the Double Toro is exceptionally deep. Upon lighting, you are greeted with a signature Corojo spice that transitions into a rich core of cedar, toasted nuts, and leather. As the smoke progresses, subtle notes of cinnamon and cocoa emerge, balanced by a natural sweetness from the aged Nicaraguan long-fillers. The finish is long and earthy, leaving a satisfying spice on the palate that marks it as a truly sophisticated blend.
