The Toscano Extra Vecchio lives up to its name, Italian for extra old, with a double fermentation and nine months of maturation that deepen everything the house style does well. First sold in 1953, it remains the fuller, more settled expression of the classic Tuscan cheroot.
The wrapper is Italian grown Kentucky tobacco and the filler blends Italian and American Kentucky leaf, and the extended aging rounds the fire-cured smoke into layers of wood, dried fruit, pepper and leather over a smoky core. The body lands at medium to full with a firm draw, and the binder-free cheroot construction lets the wrapper drive the flavour directly.
Because it is dry-cured, the Extra Vecchio keeps at room temperature without a humidor and burns slow and even. The 6 x 36 format gives you one long session or two traditional halves, and it pairs especially well with scotch, a full bodied red or an espresso.

I like these cigars. They have a strong peppery taste and burn very slow. They don’t smell like a typical cigar . These cheroots are hard to the touch due to the packed and dry tobacco. Rugged construction. Will buy again.

Slow even burn, peppery taste but not bitter, pairs nicely with a sweet drink. Would buy again.

These are similar to toscano classico, but a bit milder. Still really nice and easy, though I do find they fall apart a little near the end.

Big fan of Toscano in general and the Extra Vecchio does not disappoint! Very unique flavor profile and construction makes for a spicy but smooth smoke. Long duration too! Because of the cheroot style, they are intended to be cut in half to be able to enjoy 2 separately, and one half gives me about 30 mins! My go to cigar for an afternoon in the sun with a great scotch.

Great smoke! They remind me of the cigars in the spaghetti westerns!

These are my ‘Go-To’, have been enjoying for the past 2 years (new to cigars). Burn well and enjoy the flavour! Not enough time – just cut in half!

Great cigars, slow burners and don’t need to keep in a humidor. Cut in half and the price per cigar is quite good. These are my go to in the winter! The flavour is unique but I enjoy it !
