Villiger 1888 Nicaragua Coronita

The most important elements in the conception of a new brand or line are the composition of the tobaccos, which ultimately determine the strength, aroma, as well as the smoking characteristics, burn rate, and thus the flavor. Here, the experts from Villiger de Nicaragua and Villiger Söhne Germany were called upon. The selection of high-quality tobaccos from Nicaragua is vast: Condega Seco, medium-bodied with coffee notes; Jalapa Viso, medium-bodied with bread notes and a smooth smoke; Estelí Ligero, a rather strong tobacco with pepper notes.

Estelí, the Mecca of Nicaragua's Cigar Industry

In the last century, Nicaragua has increasingly advanced in the production of handmade cigars. This development also coincided in the early 2000s with the expansion of tobacco plantations on excellent soils under ideal climatic conditions. Thus, Estelí has increasingly become the Mecca of Nicaragua's cigar industry.
