Description

The PDR El Criollito Purito masterfully captures Dominican cigar finesse in a petite format, measuring precisely 4 inches in length by a slender 34 ring gauge. Handcrafted to honour legendary blender Abe Flores, its lustrous Ecuadorian Criollo ’98 wrapper over a Mexican San Andrés binder and Dominican-Nicaraguan Criollo ’98 fillers—bunched via entubado technique—ensures impeccable construction and elegant presentation in tins of six. Ignition unveils a flawless draw and even burn across its 20–35-minute journey. The opening third bursts with vibrant white pepper and toasted almonds, grounded by fresh coffee bean and aromatic sweet cedar. Midway, warm cinnamon spice and leather notes emerge, laced with dark chocolate and subtle earthiness for creamy tobacco nectar. The nub delivers a refined retrohale with lingering nuttiness, producing voluminous, cool smoke and a steadfast silvery ash. Perfect for discerning smokers seeking profound flavour in brief sessions, store at 65–70% humidity in a humidor. Pair seamlessly with bourbon, porter, or espresso to enhance its complexity. This Purito gem balances boldness, nuance, and value—a connoisseur’s everyday ritual celebrating Flores’ artistry in premium handmade cigars.
