Mexican Tobacco

Maduro headquarters: San Andrés Valley’s thick-skinned native leaf survives brutal fermentation and comes out tasting of chocolate and espresso.

Field notes

From the Blending Table

The San Andrés Valley in Veracruz grows a native-seed leaf tough enough to endure the long, hot fermentations maduro demands. Where other leaf falls apart, San Andrés develops chocolate depth.

When a program calls for a true maduro face, this is our default wrapper: it loves Nicaraguan filler, adds natural sweetness without flavoring, and photographs nearly black.
