| The Brick House Mighty Mighty Maduro is getting a companion vitola with a Robusto |
At the 2013 IPCPR Trade Show in Las Vegas Nevada, J.C. Newman Cigar Company launched a line extension to its Brick House Maduro line. This one is a robusto size and becomes the second vitola in the Brick House Maduro line.
The Brick House Maduro line was introduced a little over a year ago with the Brick House Mighty Mighty Maduro – which was a 6 x 60 vitola. The new Robusto will measure 5 x 54.
Like the original Mighty Mighty Maduro, the Robusto Maduro will be made at the Newmans’ San Rafael factory in Nicaragua.
Blend Profile
The Brick House Maduro line uses a similar blend to the core Brick House line. The difference is its Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper.
Wrapper: Brazilian Arapiraca Maduro
Binder: Nicaraguan
Filler: Nicaraguan
Vitolas Available
For completeness, we list both vitolas in the Brick House Maduro line
Robusto: 5 x 54
Mighty Mighty: 6 x 60
Like the blend, but the burn is often awkward (bad to terrible). Very flaky funky ash. Again, like the blend, but not rolled well.
