The La Palina Fuego Verde Cigar, aka Green Fire, is undeniably one of La Palina’s most unique cigars ever made. This cigar initially catches your eye and stands out in a big way, by sporting a bright green wrapper, known as a Candela wrapper. Candela wrappers have a very interesting history, and originally started being used in Cuba during the 1940s as an alternative to the fuller bodied wrappers. There was enormous demand throughout the US and Canada for a milder cigar option during this time, and that is when Cuban rollers started using this infamous bright green leaf. Unfortunately, due to this high demand, so many cigars were rolled and offered in the Candela wrappers, that the Candela tobacco in Cuba eventually ran out. To continue to meet demand, manufacturers stopped curing this tobacco properly, and began using various techniques to mirror this deliciously tasting sweet, grassy, mild wrapper. At the time, it was estimated that over 90% of cigar smokers preferred the mildness of the Candela leaf, and even after numerous attempts to replicate this tobacco in other countries, such as the Dominican Republic who produced a Candela leaf that was described as stale and sour, the original Cuban Candela leaf, infamously known for its sweet and mild flavors, sadly faded away into the shadows of cigar history. Today, because of its rarity and limited production, only an estimated 3% of cigar enthusiasts purchase and smoke cigars with a Candela wrapper. The La Palina Fuego Verde, encased in this historic green Candela wrapper, also offers a beautiful balance of flavors, with its exceptional blend of Honduran binder and Nicaraguan long fillers. Smooth, refined, and entirely unique, this cigar flaunts flavors that are sweet, light, and creamy that are blended with a perfect complexity of balance, finishing off with subtle hints of tea and spices. The La Palina Fuego Verde is a one-of-a-kind experience that every cigar lover should try but will undoubtedly be an experience that must be repeated, time and time again.
