Hemingway
About this cigar
A compact Hemingway perfecto made in the Dominican Republic, pairing an African Cameroon wrapper with Dominican binder and filler. Its tapered format concentrates the opening before broadening through the middle, offering the line’s familiar balance of aromatic sweetness, cedar and measured spice in a short format.

Read from this cigar's own tasting notes, strength and wrapper — not a published score.
Dry, savoury depth — the backbone most aged tobacco is built on.
Clean, resinous notes that come forward as the cigar warms up.
The tingle on the retrohale; usually strongest in the first third.
Sugars from the wrapper and long-leaf filler; often on the lips.
Toasted, bready notes — almond, cashew, fresh bread, cereal.

How to keep it
General humidor guidance for this cigar, based on its wrapper, strength, ring gauge and packaging.
Hold the box at 65–70% relative humidity at 65–70°F (18–21°C). Steady humidity matters far more than the exact number — swings are what crack wrappers.
Thicker ring gauges hold shipping moisture longest — give these boxes three to four weeks in the humidor before the first one.
Delicate wrappers like this one bruise easily and dry fast — keep the box closed and the humidity steady rather than aging them hard.
A medium blend like this holds well for a year or two; longer aging mostly smooths the finish rather than changing the flavour.
Age them in their own box where possible — the cedar keeps the cigars marrying together instead of taking on the flavour of everything else in the humidor.
