Erik Espinosa has been around many facets of the cigar industry. He's worked with Alec Bradley, Gurkha, Rocky Patel, and Drew Estate all in various capacities. To say the guy has been around the block is an understatement. And now, Espinosa has found a home. He has his own factory in La Zona, and is doing things his way with the acclaimed 601 brand and his own up-and-coming lines.

Hailing from Erik Espinosa's factory in Esteli, Espinosa Habano will easily earn your attention due to its balanced blend and complex flavors. Utilizing a Nicaraguan Habano wrapper with a secret blend of Nicaraguan long-fillers, you'll find this cigar presents a plethora of flavor ranging from sweet cocoa to hearty spice, all influenced by notes of cedar on the finish. If you've experienced 601 or Cubao, you understand those blends remain rather hearty and strong throughout.
