Detailed Description

Belgian Blue LE 2024 is built around a dark, characterful San Andrés wrapper that lends cocoa‑molasses depth and tactile grip to the box‑pressed form. An Ecuadorian binder ties together Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers—reportedly heavy on ligero for texture and strength—yet the blend prioritizes clarity: pepper drives the nose, leather and oak frame the palate, and a thread of dark sweetness rounds the finish. The result is assertive but civilized, with a steady burn and structured draw.

Whether you’re chasing intensity or looking for a full‑flavor cigar that won’t overwhelm, Belgian Blue rides the line with confidence. Pair it with a rye or peppery bourbon to echo the spice, or a rich espresso to highlight the molasses and oak undertones.
