The MATASA 30th Anniversary Cigar Showcases the Very Best.
Like many world class cigar makers, MATASA has deep roots in Cuba. The company’s production farms and facilities were moved to the Dominican Republic in 1974, where it has continued to earn a reputation for premium cigars. The manufacturing maestro of MATASA is Manuel Quesada, a legendary stogie artisan, who created the 30th Anniversary label in recognition of the company’s first three award-winning decades in the Dominican Republic. Quesada condensed the best of his experience and savvy into this cigar, which stands as the pinnacle achievement of a storied career. Others think so too, giving this cigar very high marks, and placing it on top stogie lists throughout the industry.
With that as the backdrop, one would expect a world class cigar, and the 30th Anniversary will exceed even such lofty expectations. This is a limited addition smoke composed of very rare tobaccos. The wrapper is a high priming of Olor Dominicano, from the fertile Cibao Valley. Robust, rich, with an oily sheen, this wrapper conveys an aroma of sweet hay. The binder and filler are carefully chosen choice leaf from Honduras, the Dominican Republic, and Nicaragua, grown from Cuban Ligero seed, aged ten full years, and blended for superior balance. The result is a bold and smooth smoke that serves up generous helpings of cocoa and coffee beans, with a slightly peppery finish. The flavor complexity grows as the ash lengthens on the 30th Anniversary, and so does the pleasure. A zenith smoke from a legendary smoke master in wonderful form. |
