Letters of Transit: Singapore
Singapore presented us with a great opportunity and unique challenge for a cigar blend. Though mainly known for it's wealth and urban beauty (the "Garden City"), we were most interested in its hawker centers: outdoor food courts that show off it's famous diversity of Malay, Chinese and Indian influence. Forget about the food court as you know it, as these have even been known to have a Michelin star. Sbarro, it ain't. So we partnered with Reinier Lorenzo of HVC - no stranger to producing blends with a kick - to create a lively, dynamic smoke with flavor notes full of Asian spices and herbs. Factory: Blended in collaboration with Reinier Lorenzo and produced at his Havana City Cigars factory in Esteli, Nicaragua Wrapper: Mexican San Andres Binder: Nicaragua Filler: Nicaragua Top Flavor Notes: Coriander, Lemongrass, Chili Powder
