The La Madrina Shade Robusto is a full-strength, full-bodied cigar that smokes smooth with a kick of spice. A light-tan Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper covers a Mexican San Andrés binder. The filler uses tobacco from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and the U.S.
The blend tastes rich, creamy, and sweet, with a bold hit of pepper. It's handmade for Dapper Cigar Co. at the Nicaragua American Cigars S.A. (NACSA) factory in Nicaragua.
