Barreda Don Chico Vintage Maduro Chairman is defined by a long aged Mexican San Andrés maduro wrapper over a Nicaraguan blend in a 6 x 60 size. It delivers a longer, medium to full bodied smoke with extra smooth roasted coffee, cocoa and caramel sweetness compared with the standard Don Chico Maduro.
Blended by Oscar Barreda in tribute to his grandfather Francisco Don Chico Barreda, it uses carefully matured tobaccos to deepen flavour and round off the edges while keeping the family’s Nicaraguan character.
The profile opens with a lively hit of pepper on the first draws and retrohale, joined by caramel, dark chocolate, espresso and earth. Cedar, leather, toasted sugar, nuts and a subtle mint or herbal nuance emerge, with ageing adding a more rounded finish. At 6 x 60, this gordo format suits smokers who want medium to full bodied flavour without rushing the experience.
The 6 x 60 format gives a slow, cool burn and voluminous smoke, and the dark, oily wrapper, firm pack and neat cap support an even burn. This Barreda Don Chico Vintage Maduro Chairman suits relaxed evenings or pairing with aged rum or whisky, and each box holds 21 cigars. For a dependable medium to full bodied Nicaraguan cigar, this cigar is a straightforward choice from a family that has worked with tobacco for four generations.
