Extension de la Racine

A limited, more powerful blend translating to 'extension of the root,' referencing its ligero-heavy core. It smokes full and spicy with deep earth and dark cocoa.

L'Atelier

The flagship blend built around an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos. It delivers a well-rounded medium-bodied smoke with sweet spice and cocoa.

Selection Speciale

A more full-flavored expression using a darker Mexican San Andres wrapper. It layers dark chocolate, pepper and earth for a richer, bolder profile.

Trocadero

A rounded everyday Nicaraguan puro highlighting a Habano wrapper. It offers approachable notes of cedar, sweet spice and toasted nuts.
