Eladio Díaz is once again releasing a limited-edition cigar to celebrate his birthday, and for the 71 Aniversario, he is showcasing tobacco from some lesser-known regions in the Dominican Republic.
According to a report from Cigar Aficionado, the Eladio Díaz 71 Aniversario uses an Ecuadorian corojo 99 wrapper, a Mexican San Andrés binder, and a filler that includes Dominican corojo and habano 92, along with barrel-aged Havana vuelta arriba, or HVA.
“This is a combination of six different elements, which is for me in my humble opinion, one of the best blends designed by me,” said Diaz in a press release, saying that it is like the cigar smoker transported himself to another dimension and was talking to gods and were listening to celestial music. He went on to call it a medium-to-full strength blend that is lightly spicy with notes of cacao and black coffee, sweetness, and wood that delivers a tenuous and clean smoke.
