Created as a 20th‑anniversary release, the Vintage Edition showcases Corojo ’99 leaf over an all‑Nicaraguan core. The cigar opens medium and tends to build modestly through the burn, anchored by a cedar‑and‑earth backbone with black pepper and toasted wood framing the profile. Light cream or vanilla touches and occasional citrus/herbal highlights appear in some samples, while finishes trend toward toasted cedar and lingering pepper. Launched first as a TAA exclusive and later expanded into five vitolas, it’s a clear, Corojo‑driven statement of classic Nicaraguan flavor.
