Bookish Toro

The Bookish Cigar

We are often told that a Double Claro wrapper is merely a thing of springtime and fleeting youth. But the "Bookish" stands as a brilliant paradox: a bright leaf that has been allowed the quiet dignity of growing old. Left to rest in uncounted years of dark and patient slumber, this Nicaraguan wrapper has deepened into a richer, duskier hue, trading the sharp rashness of its youth for a profoundly mellow, smooth-smoking wisdom.

Measuring a highly respectable 6x50, the heart of this smoke is a tightly woven anthology of Nicaraguan fillers that unfolds chapter by chapter in fragrant volumes. It is not a cigar for the man who wishes to conquer the modern world in ten hurried minutes, but for the man ready to strike a match, crack the spine of a battered favorite, and discover the steady, glowing ember of a well-crafted tale.
