Raul Lanuza planted Cameroon seed in Estelí — soil that shouldn't produce a wrapper this dark, and traditionally doesn't. He pushed the crop further than most blenders would attempt, coaxing an almost-black Cameroon Negro leaf out of ground that had every reason to say no. Killer Cameroon is what happened next.
Anyone familiar with Lanuza's Cameroon Negro wrapper already knows the profile — the unmistakable character of Cameroon, but weighted with a depth, richness, and attitude that feels entirely its own. Rolled box-pressed with a pigtail foot, this cigar leans into both tradition and rebellion. Classic size, anything-but-classic leaf.
Built around a leaf that probably shouldn't exist in the first place — for the smokers who understand what happens when a blender bets everything on the tobacco.
