Profile: Full

Blanco Cigars was founded in the U.S. in 1998. But the family's heritage and tobacco experience is traced back to Cuba. Blanco works closely with Plasencia, using them to source their tobacco and roll their cigars. The NINE uses ligero tobacco in each component of the cigar. Ligero comes from the top of a tobacco plant, which gets the most sunlight, making it a fuller bodied leaf which allows it to be more durable. Making it capable of undergoing longer fermentation times, bringing out naturally sweeter flavors. While this is a full bodied cigar, you can taste the natural sweetness only ligero brings.
