I’m going to do the world a favor here and not try to force any police references into the description for Protocol Blue cigars. Instead, I’ll tell you this - brand founders Juan Cancel & Bill Ives have created a full-flavored smoke with uniquely bold character that stands firmly on its own merits, no gimmick necessary.

Featuring a powerful “quad ligero” blend of Nicaraguan fillers under a Nicaraguan Habano binder, and appetizing Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, the Protocol Blue cigar serves up balanced, strong, and spicy tones of cocoa, cedar, chocolate, and pepper through a clean burn and easy draw on each carefully handmade stick.

Crafted at Erik Espinoza’s La Zona cigar factory in Esteli, Nicaragua, Protocol Blue cigars are quickly gaining a following among those who enjoy the richest of real Nicaraguan flavor. If that sounds like you, do yourself a favor and pick up some Protocol, asap.
