Ave Maria Reconquista
The Reconquista translation of “reconquest” speaks directly to the Templar Knights reclaiming lands for Christian kings in primarily southern Spanish territories. These territories were invaded and secured by the Moors. The Templar Knights who fought in the centuries-long Reconquista felt they had an edge over their enemies due to their faith in Christianity.
While the present day has its own share of heavy challenges, including holy wars, we are fortunate to live in an era when such wars are not as widespread or as long-lasting as during the time of the Knights Templar. But that doesn’t mean we can’t take in a little kick-ass combat history while we enjoy Ave Maria Reconquista cigars. These big boys come in one size: a 7 x 54 torpedo. These torpedoes are then individually placed in cedar coffin boxes and laid over a bed of tobacco leaves in a great-looking box.
The Ave Maria Cigars website states, “Improving upon perfection is no easy task. Enter Reconquista, a graceful marriage of power and flavor destined to conquer the favor of today’s true enthusiast. Medium to full in body, this savory Torpedo unleashes a robust series of charismatic complexities in elegant fashion.”
Inside Ave Maria Reconquista cigars are a lively blend of long-leaf dark tobaccos from Nicaragua’s top growing regions of Jalapa, Condega, and Estelí. This blend is held secure by a Honduran binder. A flavor-packed dark, tooth-ridden, oiled up, mighty Brazilian Habano Oscuro wrapper is the final piece of armor for this Templar Knight. Due to the extremely limited quantity of this leaf, if Ave Maria Reconquista cigars aren’t the only cigars that currently utilize it, they are among the few.
The pre-light wrapper aroma is cocoa and wood. We light this behemoth up and are zinged with black pepper and spice. There is also cocoa, earthiness, chocolate, and espresso. Things even out a bit for the second third with the addition of sweetness and oak. There is a sweet and salty thing going on that is mouthwatering. During the final third, the spice and earthiness really take over while everything else slowly fades into the background.
Please enjoy Ave Maria Reconquista cigars at your leisure.
