Herrera Esteli Norteno Belicoso Fino Box of 10

The Norteno line was created by Willy Herrera, Drew Estate’s master blender, as a follow-up to the original Herrera Esteli blend. “Norteño” means “northerner” and pays tribute to the people of Estelí, Nicaragua, where Drew Estate is based. This cigar is bold and complex. It starts with strong notes of wood and pepper, then transitions into flavors of dark cocoa, espresso, and cashew. There’s a natural tobacco sweetness throughout, with a touch of spice that lingers on the finish. The construction is excellent, producing thick smoke and an even burn. It’s box-pressed for a comfortable grip and a slow, cool draw.
