PDR 1878 Capa Natural Robusto

Though the PDR 1878 Capa Natural has seen many packaging and branding upgrades over the last several years, the formula of this excellent blend has remained the same. Originally released as the PDR 1878 Cubano Especial Capa Natural, Abe Flores ultimately felt the name was too long and confusing for consumers to remember. It sparked a revolution within his company to create names and updated packaging for his brands that would lead to greater recognition. PDR 1878 Capa Natural uses a choice blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos along with a Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper leaf. Tasting notes include flavors of cream, cedar, and earth along with hints of pepper and cocoa. PDR 1878 Capa Natural is an excellent cigar to pair with your favorite morning cup of coffee.

Since 2004 Abe Flores has been on a mission to bring a little flair to the “Cigar Capital of the World,” Tamboril, Dominican Republic. It’s not that the city wasn’t exciting, but it was known for creating world class cigars by manufacturers that tended to fly a bit under the radar. Names like Jochy Blanco of Tabacalera Palma come to mind. While most manufacturers in the area focused on creating cigars using exclusively Dominican-grown tobaccos, Abe launched PDR cigars using tobaccos from around the world. His boutique factory also stands apart from others in the region, featuring a modern facility and bright paint job. Flores also uses bright colors and bold packaging on most of his brands to help set his products apart in a crowded field. His 15+ years of hard work to establish PDR as a world class cigar manufacturer has paid off in recent years, earning the brand numerous awards throughout the industry.
