Although the wrapper appears lighter, this Olmec Claro carries the flavor heft of San Andrés: cacao and dark espresso sit front and center while cedar, baking spices and a nutty sweetness move through the midsection. The fillers receive extended bale‑age and the construction is intentionally dense—many sizes are box‑pressed and feel tightly packed in hand. Strength is squarely medium‑full, with pepper and a dry earthy backbone showing on the finish and retrohale. In short: the claro color belies a savory, toothy San Andrés personality with pronounced cocoa and coffee notes.
