While the majority of Selected Tobacco's portfolio operates in the ultra-premium end of the market, the company's Bandolero collection provides a more approachable on-ramp for cigar hobbyists to experience their critically acclaimed cigars.
This line was inspired by the <em>bandoleros</em> of the 18th and 19th centuries—smugglers of Cuban tobaccos to regions that were not under control of the Spanish Crown, which had prohibited the cigarmaking practice throughout their American and Caribbean colonies of the time.
Selected Tobacco has segmented the Bandolero line into three categories: Bandolero Serie A (Aventureros), Bandolero Serie C (Clandestinos), and Bandolero Serie T (Traficantes). With the latter (distinguished by a green sub-band), the Bandolero Serie T cigar boasts a classic Colorado-shade wrapper, sitting roughly between its siblings in terms of shade. The blend is not disclosed, only noting the origins as Costa Rican. In terms of flavor, expect a medium-plus body and robust flavors of oak, earth, zesty peppercorn, and classic leather through a long-lasting finish.
Country of Orgin : Costa Rica
Strength : Medium
Wrapper : Natural
*Please note that all SKUs have two product lines. The top line is the box/bundle count. The second line is less than a box/bundle count and will be shipped as loose cigars in a humidified bag.
Chad Manson - Bandolero Vanidosos
Fantastic cigar! Really creamy, nutty, wood and leathery notes. I had a perfect burn all the way to the nub. Will definitely smoke again.
