In 2014, Erik Espinosa introduced one of his most popular blends: the Laranja Reserva. Named after the Portuguese word for “orange” and inspired by a unique Brazilian wrapper, this cigar went on to win many fans and awards. Reserva Escuro is the first new addition to the Reserva line. This version of Laranja uses a dark, Oscuro-hued version of the Brazilian leaf. And it just might be better than the original.

Espinosa Laranja Reserva Escuro features a dark, almost black, Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper up top. Underneath, you’ll find the same Nicaraguan binder and filler that’s used on the regular Laranja. This cigar steps things up, delivering a medium to full-bodied experience. The citrusy zest of Laranja is present, backed by rich and deep notes of leather and dark chocolate. Available in boxes of ten and a variety of sizes, Laranaja Reserva Escuro is certainly worthy of a spot in your rotation.
