El Septimo France Bordeaux Chateau Zaya Gordo Cigar – Single

The El Septimo France Bordeaux Chateau Zaya Gordo Cigar features tobacco aged in Bordeaux wine barrels from Zaya Younan's vineyards. This 6" x 60 vitola incorporates five filler tobaccos - two specifically matured in French wine casks - combined with a Nicaraguan binder and Ecuadorian wrapper. The barrel-aging process introduces subtle tannic characteristics that interact with the cigar's spice-forward profile.

Key construction details:

• Wrapper: Ecuadorian hybrid seed
• Binder: Nicaraguan
• Fillers: 3 Dominican Republic tobaccos, 2 wine barrel-aged leaves
• Format: 6" x 60 Gordo

As part of El Septimo's Culinary Art Collection, this cigar demonstrates cross-category aging techniques through its wine cask-matured components. The combustion produces sequential flavor transitions from initial cedar notes to mid-palate black pepper, concluding with dark chocolate undertones. Production occurs at El Septimo's Geneva-based factory using vintage 2018 tobaccos.
