Espanola’s tribute to the Chinese zodiac is an exceptional smoke in a crowded arena.
There has been no shortage of cigars themed for the Chinese zodiac calendar’s designation of 2024 as “The Year of the Dragon.” This trend has seen entries from Rocky Patel, Montecristo, Vega Fina, La Galera, Plasencia, Punch, Davidoff, and Oliva, as well as five different ones from Gurkha. Amidst this deluge of dragon-branded smokes, an adventurously tasty offering from the humble Dominican-based Espanola cigar brand stands as a high point.
Rolled in a traditional 6 x 50 Toro format using an Ecuadorian Corojo Habano wrapper around a Connecticut broadleaf binder and filler tobaccos spanning the Dominican Republic and Mexico’s San Andrés Valley, this medium-full-bodied limited release presents an evolution of rich flavors with impressions of deep, sweet earth, spicy red pepper, dark roast coffee, leather, and more. Paired with a maintenance-free burn performance, this delicious procession is almost too easy to enjoy.
How many different cigars will be born in honor of 2025’s Year of the Snake? It remains to be seen. In the meantime, you can wisely procure your box of the Espanola Year Of The Dragon Limited Edition at the lowest prices right here.
