TheMi Querida Triqui Traca 552 distills Steve Saka's uncompromising approach to Maduro blending into a compact, exceptionally robust format. More than simply a stronger interpretation of the original Mi Querida, Triqui Traca employs a darker, more select grade of Connecticut Broadleaf and a distinctive Dominican Ligero to create a cigar of greater intensity and concentration. Handmade at Nicaragua American Cigars S.A. (NACSA), it reflects Saka's preference for deeply fermented tobaccos with unmistakable character.
The5" x 52 Robusto is dressed in Connecticut Broadleaf No. 1 Dark Corona, a particularly rich wrapper leaf prized for its depth and natural sweetness. Beneath it lies a Nicaraguan binder and a potent combination of Nicaraguan long-fillers and Dominican Ligero. The relatively compact format presents the blend with remarkable immediacy, developing impressions of dark earth, espresso, bittersweet chocolate, and assertive pepper. The Broadleaf's underlying sweetness provides an essential counterpoint to the filler’s muscular character.
For enthusiasts who appreciate the richness of traditional Connecticut Broadleaf but prefer a more forceful expression,Triqui Traca 552 is an especially compelling Robusto. Concentrated, full-bodied, and unapologetically tobacco-forward, it offers a rewarding introduction to one of Dunbarton's most assertive blends.
