For 25 years of a sovereign Nicaragua.
Nica Libre is the epitome of pure Nicaraguan enjoyment. Combining hearty, complex blends at a value-conscious price-point has been Nica Libre's MO from day one. Taking pride in the country that fostered its conception, Nica Libre is ready to roll out its most coveted blend yet. To celebrate 25 years of Nicaraguan independence, they are introducing Nica Libre Silver 25th Anniversary.
Without a doubt the tastiest Nica to hit the scene, this charismatic blend hosts a bevy of vintage Nicaraguan long-fillers, all hugged by a refined Nicaraguan binder. A gorgeous, reddish-hued, Cuban-seed Habano wrapper encases this stew of tobaccos. The result is a well-balanced, aromatic experience, chock-full of honey, dark cocoa, and leather nuances. Nica Libre makes a loud statement with this blend, and shows why the lush soils of Nicaragua are so renowned.
Not a ton of time today, but I still wanted to document a cigar I smoked recently that I really liked, that being this Nica Libre 25th Anniversary. The other day, I covered the Nica Libre Maduro, found here and it really didn't impress me much. I was a bit indifferent about trying the Nica Libre 25th Anniversary, but I was instantly surprised the moment I lit it up. It is advertised as a very strong smoke, and it is, but it's deceptively strong. I certainly felt the tobacco at all levels of my mouth and all throughout my sinuses and taste buds, but it was such an aromatic smoke that was created by this one, with such good flavor to back it up. There was a ton of dark chocolate, coffee, and wood to this one. There was also leather on the back end, and a lot of dark pepper. It was delicious and toasty, despite being a pretty powerful cigar.
I absolutely loved this one, especially because the draw was so perfect. The perfect draw allowed me to really get a taste of all of the flavors offered by this one, and when those strong notes are able to get translated to the smoker so cleanly, you are in for one hell of a ride. This cigar is strong as hell, but it's super flavorful and brilliantly built. I did not endorse the Maduro, but I heavily endorse this Habano. It's a spicy, powerful treat not meant for every smoker, but if you like your cigars as tough as they can come, grab this and enjoy. It's fantastic.
Happy smoking! CB
