A dear friend of ours, Bill Hibbler, gave me a wonderful cigar while we were in Austin, Texas recently!

It was a Cusano Corojo ’97!

The Corojo ’97 is a 24oz sirloin-sized smoke just waiting to take your palate for a flavorful ride.

The Corojo leaf is probably the #1 contributor to the legend of Cuban Cigars.

The flavors derived from a true Corojo leaf are unrivaled by any other leaf on earth, or the universe for that matter. The strength has yet to meet its match. The rich, deep flavors combined with a potent strength makes this cigar on to go out of your way for!

In 2004, Mike Cusano of Cusano Cigars released the spectacular new blend that redefines this rare wrapper leaf. By using a vintage Ecuadorian-grown Cuban Corojo leaf that’s been aging since 1997, the new Cusano Corojo ’97 is a powerhouse blend that’s bursting with complex flavors. Using some of the strongest Dominican filler-leaves and binders attainable, it has an incredibly smooth bouquet of earthy notes complementing a healthy portion of toasted spice, all while being backed by intoxicating strength!

Be warned Enthusiasts! This is not a rookie cigar.

Hope you like this cigar as much as I do!!!

What a flavor! What a Great taste!

Thank you Bill!
