Flavor Profile

Black pepper, coffee/espresso, earth, cocoa, cream

Serie R Black Maduro darkens the Serie R Black template with a Connecticut Broadleaf top leaf that amplifies chocolate and roasted‑coffee tones. The Broadleaf brings density and a muted creaminess to a Nicaraguan puro foundation, producing a medium‑full smoke that balances pepper and earthy backbone with coffee and cocoa. A restrained sweetness—aged Broadleaf sugar—rounds the midpalate while leather and cedar support the later stages. The combination of a maduro wrapper and big‑gauge formats yields long, even burns and a thicker mouthfeel that favors breadth over delicate nuance.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Black Maduro swaps the lighter Serie R wrapper for a Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro, which darkens the profile and adds Maduro‑style sweetness and density. The blend keeps the Serie R’s Nicaraguan binder and long fillers, so the result reads as Nicaraguan backbone with a coffee/cocoa and cream overlay rather than a complete change in blend philosophy.
