Named after Quetzalcoatl, the Mesoamerican deity known as the Feathered Serpent, this cigar from Apostate Cigars offers a unique and flavorful smoking experience. Crafted at Tabacalera Palma in the Dominican Republic, it features a distinctive Dominican Corojo Candela wrapper, a Mexican San Andrés binder, and Dominican fillers.
The cigar delivers a medium-bodied profile with an evolving flavor journey. Initial notes of sweet pepper, brown sugar, and slightly tannic wood transition into creamy grassiness, nuttiness, and earthy undertones. The retrohale enhances the experience with hints of herbal spice and creamy hay. This cigar challenges traditional perceptions of Candela wrappers, offering depth and complexity that appeal to both seasoned aficionados and those new to this wrapper type.
