About the The Edge Habano line
The Edge Habano is the odd one out in the Edge family — the only version rolled in Nicaragua and the only one made entirely from Nicaraguan tobacco, drawing fillers and binder from Esteli, Condega and Jalapa under an oily Ecuadorian Habano-seed wrapper. The result is a rich, full-flavoured Nicaraguan puro, and its Torpedo size was named Cigar Aficionado's #7 Cigar of the Year in 2015 with a 94-point rating — the highest honour any Edge has received.
