Smoke Inn Cigars is proud to be partnering with Espinosa Premium Cigars for the third time in the long-running MicroBlend Series, with the Espinosa Cage the DAWG set to debut during the first week of October.
The Espinosa Knuckle Sandwich Maduro Corona Gorda R offers up some fairly full strength flavors, surprisingly more intense than the Habano, which I was not expecting. I enjoyed the first and second thirds but given the intensity of the flavors, this cigar might be a bit too much for a lot of smokers. I would definitely smoke the Knuckle Sandwich Maduro again.
Espinosa Premium Cigars has announced the release of two anniversary cigars that will debut at the PCA in July 2022, the Espinosa 10 Years Anniversary and the La Zona 10 Year Anniversary.
Espinosa Premium Cigars is proud to announce the release of our new 601 La Bomba Warhead VIII, the eighth installment of one our most successful limited year releases. This year’s release, the Warhead VIII (8) is a 6 x 60, box pressed Gordo.
This Espinosa Knuckle Sandwich Habano Corona Gorda R is the exact wheelhouse of Espinosa that I like. Deep flavors creating a rich, sweet and spicy experience. Typically, when a product is backed by a celebrity, it's a bunch of bullshit. But not this one. If you're a fan of the typical Espinosa offerings, you will not be disappointed in this one.
Strength was definitely a focus on this cigar and for those that like fuller strength with some darker flavors, this 601 La Bomba The Wick Maduro delivers it. The burn issues that plagued the cigar is really what I'll remember, but in regards to the flavor profile, it just didn't bring enough to keep my interest.
The Espinosa Las 6 Provincias LV delivered consistently balanced flavors through the first and second thirds, with the last third still being pleasant but for me lacking the same complexity level to engage my interest. I think the latest iteration of the Las 6 Provincias series might be the best or second best of the series so far, and I look forward to seeing how 2023 stacks up.
The 601 La Bomba The Wick Habano was an enjoyable, full strength and full bodied experience. The intense pepper and spice was balanced with chocolate and sweetness, along with earth accents. I really enjoyed the 601 La Bomba The Wick Habano despite the distractions of re-lighting. I wonder how well it would have performed if that wouldn't have been necessary, but I would happily smoke it again.
The Espinosa Laranja Reserva Azulejo Toro took me all over the flavor intensity map, starting with a medium-full experience and leading all the way down to light-plus and nuanced. I would smoke the Laranja Reserva Azulejo Toro again as this cigar falls directly into my wheelhouse. If you're a fan of more intense pepper or spice notes, this might be a good choice for you too.
Espinosa Premium Cigars is proud to announce that they have teamed up with restaurateur, Emmy Award-winning TV host and cigar smoker, Guy Fieri, to create his own line of premium cigars, Knuckle Sandwich.
