House Release
Villiger Miami
Villiger Miami began as a limited house cigar made at ABAM in the Dominican Republic and typically uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut‑desflorado wrapper over Dominican binder and fillers; releases sit in the mild‑to‑medium lane with creamy cedar and nut flavors.

Miami reads like a friendly, limited‑run Dominican Connecticut program: soft, cedar‑forward smoke with toasted nuts, light white‑pepper lift and brown‑sugar or caramel sweetness in the finish. While early releases favored Connecticut‑desflorado wrappers, later limited editions (such as a 2023 Cañonazo) introduced Habano‑faced variants and different fillers, which can add more spice and coffee character. The line is intentionally small and house‑oriented—approachable, well‑priced per stick, and designed more for pleasant rotation than headline‑grabbing power.
