Strength meets stealth, in an enigma meant to unravel. How could something so smooth be born of such raw power? A robust puro from Nicaragua encased in an oily, heavily fermented habano leaf. Shrouded in creaminess, its clawed foot and coiled tail honor its namesake: The Mighty Chupacabra. A beast of a medium-full smoke, this one comes loaded with roasted chili pepper and creamy almonds, caramelized sugars, and a burn that is borderline unbeatable.

The Chupacabra line, which is among the best-selling blends within the Esteban Carreras portfolio, recently welcomed the Chupacabra Hellcat. The magnificent Mexican San Andres wrapper of the Hellcat comes paired with the same binder and inner filler tobaccos as the original Chupacabra. Additionally, the Hellcat is built with a pigtail head, an unfinished foot, and a wafer-thin box-pressing. This sets the Hellcat apart from the pack, as too does its unique foot bands and wax paper sleeving that protect its wrapper. 

Tasting Notes:

Artfully crafted, this Nicaraguan puro cigar punches you in the nose with some scents of honey and sweet tobacco, which pair beautifully with the draw off the initial light. Possible tasting notes include espresso, chocolate, and pepper.
