Video review HERE.
The Aquitaine contains the same long-filler, full-bodied blend found in the US Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapped CroMagnon, including its unique Cameroon binder. However, the Aquitaine features a beautiful Ecuador Habano Ligero wrapper selected from the best tobacco we could find. This eighth and ninth priming ligero leaf is thick, oily and has amazing texture.
The filler leaf for this blend was acquired from three separate growing regions in Nicaragua: Esteli, Condega and a small farm north of Esteli on the Honduran border, Pueblo Nuevo.
Wrapper: Ecuador Habano Ligero
Binder: Cameroon

The cigar is well made and has a nice, dense feel in the hand.
The test draw after cutting the cap was effortless. The initial flavors were boysenberry and dry wood. There was a large amount of black pepper which I rated at an 8. Very nice black pepper especially when retro haled.
