Tasting Notes:

Here's a bit of an aged rarity you don't see all that often: The original version of the Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte. While the new blend is very good, we prefer the silken glove palate puncher that is the vintage Extra Fuerte by Sancho Panza.

From first puff to its earthy end, this Honduran-heavy first version packs some seriously intense tastes, leading some to even consider it a pepper-bomb. However, look a bit deeper and you will find notes of cherry and caramel peeping through the smoke, along with scoops of roasted chicory, black tea leaves, and a touch of cedar and mulled wine spice. An obscure gem for anyone in search of something box-pressed with a bit of additional age.
