As it is
easy to imagine, the striking name of these cigars was inspired by the famous
American gangster from the beginning of the last century.
Al Capone cigars
are designed to be smoked when time is short, but you want the full cigar
experience. Although they are the size of a cigarette, make no mistake: they
really are small cigars with all the flavor of a larger cigar. Proof of this is
that they contain more than 3 grams of tobacco, while typical cigarettes do not
reach a gram of tobacco.
Unlike
larger format cigars, the filler used comes from short leaves and not long
leaves, however, excellent blends are used that combine Nicaraguan and
Brazilian tobaccos, aged with the care and techniques of the best cigars, which
guarantees an optimal experience.
All Al
Capone cigars are involved in a wrapper of Brazilian Bahia leaf, grown and
treated in Sao Felix, Brazil, by the prestigious Dannemann company, an
internationally renowned tobacco group, with tobacco plantations in the Americas
and Asia, and with plants from traditional manufacturing worldwide. These
wrappers are air-cured, fermented, and then steeped in rum, cognac, sugar, or
menthol for the legendary sweet taste of Al Capone cigars. After the curing
process is done, they are hand rolled in Danli, Honduras.
Al Capone
cigars are available with filter and without filter. They are generally sweet
with a pleasant flavor and aroma. They are medium to full bodied and available
in cognac or rum. All Al Capone cigars offer a short but interesting smoking
experience and can be enjoyed during a short break.
The idea
behind Al Capone was to create a cigar that could be enjoyed at any time, both
by experienced smokers and by novices, although they are ideal for those
smokers who are just starting out in the world of tobacco. They offer a compact
smoke that lasts between 10 and 15 minutes.
They are
reasonably priced and if you are someone who enjoys a quick and flavorful
smoke, this cigar offers great satisfaction in a short duration. In the United
States they are very popular and have been the best-selling small cigars for
several decades.
