HVC Hot Cake

Your customers loved the baked goods flavors of HVC’s Pan Caliente. It was so popular that the esteemed cigarmaker released a follow up. Its English cousin, if you will. The Hot Cake (the literal translation of Pan Caliente) is a brand-new blend that your customers will love. You’ll sell with ease this blend of Mexican San Andres wrapper, Corojo 99 from Jalapa and Corojo 98 from Estelí binder and filler made up of viso leaves of Corojo 2006 maduro. Utilizing the viso leaves for this blend was purposeful and allows for a more potent flavor but mellow strength. The viso sits below the ligero and has a longer burn time and a more steady burn time than its stronger upstairs neighbor. The flavors in this smoke are one of cashews and cedar. A bit different from the Pan Caliente, which had a distinct profile of baked bread and other fresh-out-of-the-oven pastries, the Hot Cakes are a tour de force of different desert like flavors. Notes of cocoa, espresso and cinnamon are also available, along with a balanced white pepper note that keeps the cigar from becoming too sweet. The HVC Cigar brand has a ton of hits to its name. Founder Reinier Lorenzo left Cuba when he was 23 and began the brand—HVC is a tribute to his home city of Havana, Cuba—while working another job in the Midwest. Outside of Pan Caliente, the HVC brand also carries top-quality smokes like Seleccion No. 1 Maduro, Natural Habano and HVC Selección No.1 Connecticut. "Whenever I create a blend, I want to evoke a conversation piece where each brand takes you into a different story," Lorenzo once said in an interview. Like many of HVC’s blends, there is not much of a marketing scheme behind the cigar. Your customers will appreciate a brand that wants the tobacco and its flavors to do the talking. While a bit veiny and rough to the touch, this cigar is proof that maintaining roots in the Cuban tradition are the secret to success. The original Pan Caliente was named as much because the plan was for it to sell like “hot cakes.” Now that the Hot Cakes line is here, they’re sure to fly off the shelves even faster.
