Description

A medium-bodied cigar that offers notes of cedar, peppercorn, barnyard, and underscored by a rich creaminess. Its Dominican Corojo wrapper covers a Nicaraguan binder and a Dominican and Nicaraguan filler. The cigars are handmade at the historic El Titan de Bronze factory in Miami, Florida. The Don Reynaldo 70th Belicoso was made in honor of Ronald Gellis 70th birthday. Ronald is the father of Kyle Gellis. He inspired his son to enter the cigar business so much so that Kyle founded Warped Cigars. This is a limited release cigar. Only 1,000 boxes of 10 cigars per box were made. The Warped Don Reynaldo 70th Belicoso received a 92 rating from Cigar Insider.

Manufactured at the famed El Titan de Bronze factory in Miami, Florida, this extremely limited edition cigar’s goal is to combine the flavor profiles Don Reynaldo loved. Medium to full-bodied, notes of cedar, pepper and earth can be found within this exquisite and complex smoke.

• Cigar WrapperCorojoThe wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.Corojo wrapper was first developed in Cuba in the 1930s and quickly became popular as the wrapper on some of the best cigars. By the end of the 90s, Cuba stopped growing Corojo wrapper because of its susceptibility to pests and diseases. Ironically, Corojo wrapper has since become more popular outside of Cuba, as it has been replicated in tobacco farms in Nicaragua, Honduras, Ecuador and the Dominican Republic.DominicanThe wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.The main tobacco region in the Dominican Republic is the Cibao valley in the northern part of the island.

The native Dominican tobacco, called Olor, is milder than Piloto Cubano yet more aromatic. The first company to grow Dominican tobacco for cigar wrapper was Tabacalera Arturo Fuente in 1995.
