Joya De Nicaragua Cabinetta

Cigars have been produced by Joya De Nicaragua since 1968. Due to 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 from the cigar-making map.

The first cigar series to be reintroduced was the Antaño 1970, which has been allowed 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.

The Joya De Nicaragua Cabinetta was introduced in 2011 and is one of the mildest series in the company's portfolio. The special feature is the two-tone wrapper, which is used here not for visual reasons, but to give the cigars a tasty touch. At first, you smoke the mastic and Wrapper 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 flavors, becoming stronger as the smoke progresses. The final third is then very Nicaraguan, with peppery notes predominating.

The full 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 mildest as well as the >Joya De Nicaragua Red series introduced in 2014.
