Entirely handmade in Nicaragua, Nestor Plasencia has created yet another one of a kind cigar. The Fighting Cock Robusto is a medium-bodied cigar that is packed with mellow Nicaraguan long-fillers and binder and wrapped in a golden-brown habano wrapper. Combining the creamy texture of much milder blends with the complexity and flavor of Habano wrappers, Fighting Cock has developed an impressive formula with notes of pepper, oak, cream, earth, and coffee. We paired it with Jameson on our patio.
The Nicaraguan cigar industry originated when Cuban cigar makers escaped the revolution and re-established their livelihood in Nicaragua with Cuban-seed tobacco. Blessed with dark, rich soil, their new home was ideal for tobacco cultivation and Nicaragua quickly became known for cigars that rivaled Cuban quality. Unfortunately, revolution and war came to Nicaragua in the 1980s and devastated the industry, but it’s rebounded dramatically and is once again producing tobacco considered by many to be the finest in the world. The Esteli Valley is in many ways the heart of Nicaraguan production and is known for its very powerful and spicy tobacco. The Jalapa Valley produces arguably the finest tobacco in the country: somewhat sweeter and less intense than Esteli, but extremely complex. The tobacco of the Condega Valley is often described as a blend of the other two regions.
