RoMa Craft Limited Edition Cigars Quinquagenario Robusto (5x50)
Skip Martin, co-founder of the sought-after RoMa Craft brand, wanted to create a memorable cigar to mark his 50th birthday. He also wanted to challenge himself by working with Dominican tobacco. So, he asked legendary cigar maker Ernesto Perez-Carrillo if could help him. Ernesto agreed and the two embarked on a two-year journey to develop the blend for this milestone cigar. The blend consists of a dark tan Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed maduro wrapper covering a Dominican Republic binder and filler. The cigars were allowed to age for one year prior to shipping to allow the tobacco’s flavors to marry. The cigar not only celebrates Martin’s birthday, but it also marks the first time RoMa Craft has created a cigar in the Dominican Republic. The RoMa Craft Quinquagenario is handmade in the Dominican Republic at the famed Tabacalera La Alianza S.A., which is owned and operated by Perez-Carrillo. “Quinquagenario” is Spanish to describe someone in their fifties.
