- Cigar WrapperNicaraguan CorojoThe wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.Nicaraguan Corojo ’99 tobacco originated as a wrapper leaf in 1999 in Cuba. The seeds of the original Corojo ’99 seed were planted in Ecuador, and these in turn were transplanted to Nicaragua. The leaf is appreciated for its excellent wrapper qualities and spiciness.
- Cigar BinderCorojoThe binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.Corojo tobacco was first developed in Cuba in the 1930s and quickly became popular as the wrapper on some of the best cigars.

Ironically, Corojo has since become more popular outside of Cuba, as it has been replicated in tobacco farms in Nicaragua, Honduras, Ecuador and the Dominican Republic.
