Cigar News: Mombacho Ships Cosecha 2015 “True vintage is almost impossible to find in the Cigar industry and we have created a Cigar that showcases the best Nicaraguan tobaccos with Cosecha. Cosecha 2012, Cosecha 2013 and Cosecha 2014 surprised the aficionados.

Cigar News: Mombacho Ships Cosecha 2015 “True vintage” in this case means that the cigars were rolled back in 2016 with tobacco harvested in 2015, then have been aging whole for these 4 years. The Mombacho Cosecha 2015 is the fourth release in the Cosecha line, making this the fourth year in a row.

“When accessing the potential for any new Cosecha Vintage, I first determine the conditions, yields and specific qualities of that years Tobacco crop in Nicaragua. In 2015, I discovered an excellent and Cosecha worthy crop, albeit with a stronger tobacco than recent years, so I identified and worked with these characteristic allowing for the strongest Cosecha Vintage in history. The primary challenge was blending a stronger, yet beautifully balanced Cosecha Cigar. This required an adjustment in Jalapa tobaccos to help smooth and offset the power, yet still providing a very pleasant full-bodied blend without sacrificing the complexity of its flavors,” Sgroi added.

The cigar is the same vitola as previous years, being a toro measuring 6 x 52 with a pigtail cap. It comes in boxes of 10 and each cigar sells for $29.95. Only 430 boxes were made of this version and will be available only from a few select Retailers and at www.mombachocigars.com with worldwide shipping.
