Description

The Highclere Castle Victorian Toro Cigar is inspired by the cigar culture of 19th and early 20th-century Highclere Castle, famously featured in Downton Abbey. Handcrafted in Estelí, Nicaragua, it combines an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper with Criollo and Corojo fillers sourced from Estelí, Jalapa, and Ometepe’s volcanic soils. Master Blender Nick Melillo of Foundation Cigar Company developed this 6” x 52 Toro vitola to reflect historical elegance.

Wrapper and Blend Composition

The Highclere Castle Victorian Toro features a dark, oily Ecuadorian Habano wrapper. Aged Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos provide structural integrity, ensuring a consistent draw and even combustion throughout the smoking session.

Flavor Profile

  • Initial Third: Cedar and roasted almond notes with subtle honey sweetness
  • Mid-Third: Dark cocoa, espresso, and cinnamon layered over earthy leather undertones
  • Final Third: Oak-forward finish with lingering black pepper and nutmeg spice

With medium-bodied strength, the Highclere Castle Victorian Toro Cigar prioritizes balance over intensity. Its flavor progression avoids abrupt transitions, maintaining a cohesive profile from light to nub. This cigar is tailored for enthusiasts seeking a historical tribute through Nicaraguan tobacco craftsmanship.
