The El Criollito blend by Pinar Del Rio signify the importance of Dominican tobacco in this cigar’s revamped recipe. PDR brand owner, Abe Flores, has a deep appreciation for the Dominican Republic and its place in the cigar world. That’s what inspired him to keep the Ecuador Criollo 98 wrapper and Mexican San Andres binder, while adding more entubado-rolled Dominican Criollo 98 with an additional dash of Mexican San Andres. The result is a reasonably priced cigar with a medium-body that issues a semi-spicy mix of nuts, coffee bean, sweet cedar, white pepper, and more with every puff.
