Earlier this year, Espinosa Cigar introduced a new cigar line to their portfolio, the new Espinosa Sumatra. This new line features a Sumatra wrapper grown in Ecuador which has been used before by Espinosa Cigars, but this is the first use of it out of their La Zona cigar factory. The Espinosa Sumatra was first featured at the 2024 PCA tobacco trade show in Las Vegas, NV. In the Espinosa Sumatra press release, Erik Espinosa and Hector Alfonso Sr., explain a little about how the new cigar line came about:
“This is just another example of us finding the right cigar to fill a void in our portfolio. It’s right in my wheelhouse, nutty but with the spice note I love,” commented Erik Espinosa in a press release.
“This is the first Sumatra blend made at La Zona, and unlike the Laranja Azulejo or the Knuckle Sandwich Maduro, this has its own distinct and unique flavor profile. This is a great cigar for us to start off 2024,” added Hector Alfonso, Director of Operations.
