At the 2025 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, Guy Fieri’s Knuckle Sandwich brand will introduce Puro Nicaragua. The Puro Nicaragua becomes the fourth regular production blend of Knuckle Sandwich. Information on this release was communicated to retailers last week.
As the name indicates, Puro Nicaragua features 100% Nicaraguan-grown tobaccos in the blend, highlighted by a Habano Oscuro wrapper. Puro Nicaragua comes in three sizes: Robusto, Toro, and Gordo – each packed in 20-count boxes. The cigars are made at the San Lotano factory.
Espinosa Premium Cigars handles overall production and distribution. A preview of the Puro Nicaragua was given to attendees of Espinosa’s 2024 La Zona Palooza event in Miami, Florida.
“This one’s special,” said Erik Espinosa in a press release. “We’ve worked with Nicaraguan tobacco for years, but this is the first time we’ve gone all Nicaraguan. It’s got strength, flavor, and that unmistakable spice note that runs through the entire smoke. It’s a true puro, and for sure a true Knuckle Sandwich.”
