Estaban Carreras “Taken from the DEVIL’S HAND” Toro Cigar
TAKEN FROM THE DEVIL’S HAND - Esteban Carreras launched its first Corojo-wrapped cigar. The cigar itself features a dark Ecuadorian Corojo wrapper over all-Nicaraguan tobaccos for the binder and filler.
Gonzalo Puentes, who once worked for Cuba’s Ministry of Agriculture. As the story is told, Puentes and his colleagues were tasked with developing improved corojo seeds, so they used positive selection to select the strongest plants; for example, start with 100 plants, take the seeds from the best five, plant those seeds, and repeat a few times. Except instead of giving the best seeds to the government, they were kept and smuggled out of the country, while less desirable seeds were handed over. Thus, they had taken the crop from the devil—Fidel Castro—and his regime.
