RoMa Craft Intemperance BA XXI Ambition Belicoso Cigar – Single

The RoMa Craft Intemperance BA XXI Ambition Belicoso features an exposed binder and filler at the foot. This design accommodates the Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper’s sensitivity to humidity, which requires pre-aging before cutting the foot to prevent shrinkage. The exposed components allow smokers to directly experience the binder and filler flavors before the wrapper becomes the dominant element during combustion.

Blend Components and Specifications

Measuring 5.5 x 54 (Belicoso), this cigar combines Nicaraguan filler tobaccos with an Indonesian binder and a Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper. The Arapiraca leaf contributes spice and earthy undertones, balanced against the Nicaraguan filler’s leather, coffee, and dark chocolate notes. The Indonesian binder maintains structural integrity while allowing layered combustion of the components.

Flavor Progression

Initial draws from the Intemperance BA XXI Ambition Belicoso present roasted coffee and dark chocolate with subtle sweetness from the wrapper. Mid-smoke reveals nutty undertones and creamy texture, transitioning to intensified espresso and toasted wood in the final third. A peppery finish emerges as the cigar’s strength builds linearly, supported by the Arapiraca wrapper’s spice-forward characteristics.

The open foot design enables immediate interaction with the unshielded binder and filler, creating a graduated introduction to the blend’s complexity before full wrapper engagement. This construction approach emphasizes transparency in showcasing how each tobacco component impacts the overall profile.
