Sometimes you find unexplored territory in your own backyard. We’ve been sourcing tobacco from the DR for years but we’ve never worked with andullo tobacco, a relatively rare, centuries-old technique that involves taking cured tobacco leaves and tightly coiling them in palm tree pods called “yaguas” to ferment. This process yields a dark, leathery tobacco with a taste profile that is both strong and sweet. CAO Mortal Coil blends this rare tobacco inside a USA Broadleaf wrapper for a unique cigar that’s uncommonly flavorful.
