We love a good puro, and a Nicaraguan Puro—well, when we get ‘em, you can bet they’re a big hit with those on our review panel who prefer the big-bodied ka-pow of strong cigar. But the fine cigars from the Joya de Nicaragua line are not just popular with our panel members; they’ve been a big hit since they first hit the market in 1964. In the 1970s the brand was enjoying the peak of its popularity—considered the best in the world. Created in Nicaragua’s first cigar factory, from where they spread throughout the world, its deserved popularity was cut short. Sadly, decades of war and Communist rule in their homeland nearly destroyed much of the country—including the factory that produced them. This new Joya de Nicaragua Antaño 1970 was created in 2002 to celebrate the rich heritage and worldwide renown it enjoyed in 1970. The word Antaño means ”long ago”, and while it may not have been all that many years ago, the company clearly longed for that period of glory. The Joya de Nicaragua Antaño 1970 proudly marks a return to those glorious days. We found it firm to the touch with no soft spots, offering a cool, even burn and effortless draw. The flavor is identifiably Nicaraguan, offering a slightly sweet taste and huge spicy character, and characterized as very, very full-bodied and robust. A strong cigar to complement a strong drink—enjoy with an XO Armagnac.
