Today, Villiger announced a line extensions to their Villiger Cuellar series, which currently includes the Connecticut Krēmē. This new extension is called Cuellar Black Forest. Villiger Cuellar Black Forest is made in the Dominican Republic. The blend uses a dark maduro wrapper inspired by the real Black Forest in southern Germany, near to the border of Switzerland where the Villiger headquarters is located. The rest of the blend uses Dominican binder and fillers. Henrich Villiger and Villiger Cuellar Black Forest is described as a medium to full-bodied, full-flavored cigar. It is rolled at Tabacalera La Palma in the Dominican Republic and blended by Master Blender Jochy Blanco. The packaging of the Villiger Cuellar Black Forest resembles the aura of the Black Forest.
"This cigar is a grower not a shower. Don’t let the sub optimal appearance deceive you, there’s interesting flavors here that develop over the course of 75 minutes. Even the cracking of the wrapper in the final third didn’t take away from smoking experience. All I ask is that a cigar doesn’t bore me and this stogie isn’t boring by a long shot. The lesson - don’t judge a book by its cover folks." -Matt Cade (CADE)
"Just in terms of flavor this was actually a very good cigar. The smoke output was creamy, the draw was nice if I held it just right, and it burned well even with an almost destroyed wrapper. The size was very large though and with the lack of profile changes did make it a bit one dimensional." -Alan (Eulogy)
