Description

La Capitana by Villiger carries you through steady notes of cedar, light baking spice, citrus, and a hint of natural sweetness. Its a smooth, balanced voyage wrapped in an Ecuadorian Connecticut leaf, with Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers steering the blend. This is a rerelease of the original full-strength spicy Nicaraguan Habano blend. Having received its name from a famous Spanish treasure galleon, La Capitanabrings that same spirit of adventure to the cigar world, only this time, the gold is in the flavor.

• Cigar WrapperEcuadorian Connecticut ShadeThe wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.Ecuador is the perfect place to grow wrappers, because it is located on the Equator! And it has rich soils too. The weather conditions, with a nearly permanent cloudy sky, provide a natural shade, protecting the wrapper plants from sunshine and allowing the tobacco to grow thin and light. This climate allows tobacco growers to grow Connecticut-seed wrapper in the shade without shade cloths, resulting in more economical wrapper.
