Villiger 1888
Nicaragua
Often overlooked, this illustrious brand has a heritage that spans well over a century. Industry veteran Villiger was first founded in Switzerland by Jean and Louise Villiger in 1888. Villiger, pronounced fillicher in the company’s native language, has experienced great success over the years, particularly in the European market. Implementing an innovative directive propelling Villiger Cigars exponentially in growth, popularity and value, one of the brand's most wise business moves was the formation of Villiger North America. Aligning with their vision of becoming an international household name, the brand wanted to place focus on their goal of introducing the finest smoking experience a premium handmade cigar has to offer on a global scale. Showcasing a diverse portfolio of handmade cigars and cigarillos, and numerous revered blends from the finest and most unique tobacco around the world, all of which are competitively priced, Villiger's progression is admirable, going stronger than ever before for the first time in the company's history. With production already established from some of the most respected manufacturers in Central America and elsewhere, their venture into the Nicaraguan cigar scene with the Villiger 1888 Nicaragua series, a sort of revamp from the original, was also prompted by Villiger’s new factory located in Esteli, Nicaragua. A testament to their unwavering commitment to exceptional tobacco experiences while representing a momentous occasion in the long and storied history of Villiger Cigars, after much anticipation the line-up is finally here in the US. Recalling back to the attractive booth where the company debuted the new line at the 2023 PCA show to much fanfare and warm regards, the highly rated smoke's packaging is the epitome of luxury dripping in regal vibes. Housed in a royal blue box with the company’s logo boldly displayed in multiple areas around the exterior, the colorway in combination with the simple yet elegant font is alluring immediately pulling your gaze and focus. Conveyed in three vitolas, Coronita, Rubusto and Toro with a price tag that shocks consumers, each cigar in the lineup is of an incredible caliber and retails just under $10. Brandishing an Ecuadorian Sumatra Seed known for its rich and robust flavors as wrapper, the cigars are meticulously crafted using a rare rolling technique. Beneath the wrapper lies a Nicaraguan binder and a co-mingling of Pennsylvanian with Nicaraguan tobacco from three different growing regions known for producing some of the finest tobacco in the world as filler. The expertly chosen combination results in a medium-bodied smoke and a delightful tasting profile reflected in peppery notes of leather, earth, honey and cocoa that gives way to hints of dried fruit and cream. Characterized as a complex flavor profile so compelling with heady aromas and an enticing retro hale, the burn is even a smooth throughout. Ultimately showing that hard work does indeed pay off, the celebratory cigar is a culmination of a brand who consistently strives to introduce innovation in every facet of cigarmaking delighting cigar enthusiasts worldwide.
