Cigar news:
Sun-dried cigars! Also known as “sun-grown” or “sun-cured” cigars, they’re made from tobacco leaves that have been dried under the sun, rather than through machine-based methods. This traditional process can enhance the flavor and aroma of the cigar. Here’s what you need to know:
- Flavor profile: Sun-dried cigars tend to have a richer, more complex flavor profile, with notes of earth, leather, and spices.
- Aroma: They often have a more pronounced, sweet aroma.
- Strength: Can range from mild to full-bodied, depending on the brand and blend.
- Appearance: Sun-dried cigars may have a slightly darker wrapper color and a more rustic appearance.
- Production: This traditional method is more time-consuming and labor-intensive, making sun-dried cigars potentially more expensive.
Some popular sun-dried cigar brands include:
- Arturo Fuente Sun Grown
- Padrón Sun Grown
- Oliva Sun Grown
- San Cristobal Sun Grown
- Ashton Virgin Sun Grown
Keep in mind that sun-dried cigars can be more sensitive to humidity and light, so proper storage is crucial to preserve their flavor and aroma.
