Vintage 2012 Quesada Jalapa Prominente

A rare and beautifully aged cigar from the Quesada family archives.

The Quesada Jalapa line was created to highlight the distinctive character of Nicaraguan Jalapa Valley tobacco, known for its natural sweetness, aromatic complexity, and refined balance. Unlike the heavier Estelí-style blends, Jalapa tobaccos are prized for their elegance and smooth, layered flavor profile.

This particular release — the Prominente (7 5/8 × 49) — offers a long, graceful format that allows the blend to evolve slowly throughout the smoke.

Originally produced in 2012, these cigars have now benefited from over a decade of natural aging, resulting in an exceptionally smooth and integrated experience.

Flavor Profile
• Aged cedar and toasted almond
• Creamy coffee and light cocoa
• Subtle floral sweetness from the Jalapa tobacco
• Gentle baking spice on the finish

The extended Prominente format delivers a cool, slow-burning smoke that gradually reveals its complexity from start to finish.
