The cigar is of a good size and will provide a medium length smoke. The use of tobaccos from Remedios region, these short filler cigars have a rich flavour once only smoked by Cuban nationals and a select few within the Spanish colonial world. If you are looking for a cigar with a traditional, pre-colonial feel then the Jose Piedra Cazadores is must for anyone.
Jose L Peidra cigars differ from most of the hand rolled cigars exported from Cuba. While still being hand rolled, the tobacco used to create these cigars are all from short filler (tripa corta, totalmente a mano). The Peidra family moved to Cuba from Spain in the 1880s and settled near the central town of Santa Clara, in the Remedios region. Tobacco has been produced in the area since the 16th Century primarily for the domestic market.
Once the family had established its self in the area, Jose Lamadrid Piedra took over the family business and started rolling cigars. Jose Piedra cigars have a distinct rich and “rustic” taste, characteristic of region. If you are looking for a classic, Cuban country cigar then the Jose L Piedra cigars are must.
