Description
The Perla del Mar Shade Toro is a smooth and elegant offering from J.C. Newman, crafted at the acclaimed PENSA factory in Estelí, Nicaragua. This box-pressed toro showcases a golden Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper, selected for its delicate texture and balanced flavor profile.
Inside, a well-aged Nicaraguan binder and long-fillers produce mellow yet rich flavors, making it a perfect cigar for any time of day. Notes of cream, vanilla, cedar, and toasted nuts unfold gradually, complemented by hints of white pepper and light floral sweetness. The box-press shape ensures a cool, even burn and a consistent draw from start to finish.
Rated 90 by Cigar Aficionado, this cigar exemplifies craftsmanship, approachability, and refined taste.
