La Invicta Nicaraguan Robusto Cigar. Presented in a cellophane wrapper.
La Invicta Nicaraguan Canon Cigars are made by the Plasencia Cigar Factory which also makes cigars for many other brands including, Alec Bradley, Rocky Patel and some great micro-brands like Nomad. These are a a great entry point cigar from Nicaragua. These handmade cigars demonstrate the more robust, rich, earthy flavours, a characteristic of tobacco grown in that region. The tobaccos are from Esteli, Jalapa and Condega.
The La Invicta brand name is owned by Hunters and Frankau who are the exclusive agents for Habanos S.A. and distribute all their Cuban cigars in the UK. The brand was created in the 1940s during World War II when they could not purchase Cuban cigars in US dollars. Instead Hunters and Frankau created La Invicta cigars which were made from Jamaican tobacco to keep the UK supplied during wartime. The brand has recently been resurrected and includes Honduran and Nicaraguan versions. Made totally by hand using long-filler tobacco leaves, the brand is still under the stewardship of Hunters & Frankau.
The La Invicta Nicaraguan Robusto Cigar is a good robusto-sized cigar with a nice price tag.
