Privada Storytelling
The El Buble Aged 2+ Years is proof that magic can happen in the humblest corners of Nicaragua. Born in the small but legendary Tabaco de Espléndido factory, tucked between Estelí and Condega, this puro tells the story of passion over scale. With just 17 pairs of rollers, salsa music bouncing off stone walls, and lunches cooked in a sunlit courtyard, this is not a mass-production house—it’s a family, crafting greatness leaf by leaf.
Half Cuban, half Nicaraguan, the factory’s owner built a space where tradition and charm are woven into every cigar. El Buble is the crown jewel of this ethos: a puro that’s nostalgic, whimsical, and unlike anything else on the market. Its name, its profile, and its performance combine to deliver an unforgettable smoking experience—like a childhood memory wrapped in aged tobacco.
Flavor Journey
-
First Third: Sweet corn syrup and mocha dominate early, joined by black pepper and cedar. The smoke is creamy, with waves of sweetness that almost overwhelm before pepper transitions from black to white.
-
Second Third: The cigar takes a playful turn—candy corn, bubble gum, and tamarind notes appear, adding tang and intrigue. A dash of Thai-like spice sneaks in, while the creamy core remains intact.
-
Final Third: Complexity deepens with cedar, oak, and white pepper, balanced by tropical fruit and just the right mix of sweetness, salt, and bitterness. The finish lingers like a perfect encore, equal parts refreshing and indulgent.
