Cuevas Reserva Natural Robusto

If you’re around the premium cigar industry long enough, you start to notice a few things. It’s a small industry with many multi-generational, family run factories and farms. While the Cuevas name is not well known, for four generations this family has been growing tremendous tobacco and manufacturing cigars. Today, their Las Lavas factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic manufacturers many brands of premium cigars including the ones that bear the family name. In 2016 they launched and began distribution of their core Casa Cuevas lines, and in 2019 they debuted the Cuevas Reserva to showcase some of their talents.

Interesting side note about Cuevas cigars: they were originally scheduled to launch in the early 2000s. Business was really good and with factory commitments for contact brands, they decided to postpone the release. Fast forward about 15 years and the Cuevas brands have finally found their time in the sun. The Cuevas Reserva Natural features a mix of fillers from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and the U.S.A., along with a Havana-seed binder. It’s all wrapped in a glowing Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper. The result is a silky-smooth, mild to medium body cigar featuring flavors of cream, vanilla, and toasted nuts along with a gentle hint of citrus, pepper, and sugar. Smoking a Cuevas Reserva is a very satisfying and pleasant experience.
