Here's something you don't see every day - a cigar that's all-American. The George Rico Miami S.T.K. American Puro is one of the most unique handmade cigars available, with a very interesting pedigree.
To begin with, these medium-bodied cigars are made in Miami, and are enrobed with a satiny-smooth Connecticut Shade capa. The binder is also from Connecticut, and the filler is a blend of Pennsylvania, Connecticut and dark-fired Kentucky. Kentucky is a robust tobacco that's cured over open fires which imparts a smoky flavor, but by combining it with the tame, smoother profiles of the Connecticut and Pennsylvania leaf, it's remarkably well balanced. There's a deep sweetness to go with the smoky notes and a good amount of spice. For a unique flavor and patriotic pride, give an American Puro a try.
