Joya De Nicaragua Cabinetta is yet another one of this iconic brand’s amazing selections.
The company describes this highly regarded cigar best. “Joya Cabinetta is different. It brings out the best of two different wrappers in one cigar. It was expressly blended with mellower, medium bodied Nicaraguan fillers that deliver a smoother; more refined smoking experience.“
This great tasting mild to medium bodied cigar is completely wrapped in the Ecuadorian Shade along with an additional over wrap of Nicaraguan Criollo placed on the top third of the cigar. Without a doubt, this adds a unique flavor transition to the blend.
With this in mind, it’s no surprise why so many seasoned smokers are rediscovering this time honored brand.

Criollo de Oro uses a very rare sun grown criollo de oro wrapper from Mao, Dominican Republic. The binder is Grade A Connecticut Broadleaf maduro along with select fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua.

Noted reviewer KATMAN rates it a respectable 90. His claim…”The cigar has goes from shy and smooth to big bold flavors accompanying serious complexity.” Leaf Enthusiast giving it the same number by saying it’s a smooth medium-bodied smoke right out of the gate.

The Caldwell Connecticut T is an amazing collaboration between Matt Booth (of Room 101), Robert Caldwell, and Master Blender A.J. Fernández being produced at Fernández’s thriving factory in Estelí. For the record, the Connecticut T delivers more intensity that your average Connecticut. Every puff yields mouthfuls of tasty smoke, producing an overall profile of consistent medium strength, flavor, and body.
When the highly critical folks at Cigar Dojo rated it a 90, they described it best,” The Connecticut T is a well-balanced, and surprisingly flavorful experience. At times, pepper is the dominant ingredient, at other times, it is primarily sweet, but the cigar rallies in the final third to showcase its optimum experience—being a unique balance of sweetness, spiciness, creaminess, and buttermilk.”

The Fratello Navetta possesses a flavor profile like no other in this company’s portfolio.
With attention to detail, Navetta is a gorgeous rich smoke that comes from 3-year-old aged tobaccos from Ecuador, Dominican Republic, and Nicaragua. Without reservation, this cigar is Fratello’s most complex cigar to say the least.
The critics agree! Blind Man’s Puff rates it a solid 90 and raves. “There is only one word to describe this cigar, phenomenal. Flavors were on point, construction was nearly flawless and it made the time spent smoking it memorable. I would recommend this cigar to anyone that loves a deep, dark, flavorful cigar.”
Cigar Authority ramps the score up to 93 with even better words. “Navetta is different from anything else in the company portfolio and part of the reason is the proprietary tobacco from Jalapa that brings a profile that was enjoyable and dare I say out of this world. It’s wonderfully complex and for me is the best cigar from Fratello to date. It’s a dense cigar that has many stages. It smokes slow before reaching breakaway velocity that will have me coming back again.”
