What a tasty smoke! The Caldwell La Barba Purple cigar is most often observed to have a distinctive marshmallow note that makes it really irresistible. It’s also got a great spicy finish that will have you smacking your lips throughout the session.

La Barba is the brainchild of Tony Bellato and Craig Rossi, a pair of cigar-loving friends from Ohio. Bellato is a trained sommelier, but don’t let that throw you off. He and his down to Earth bearded companions (“La Barba” means “the Beard) are as likely to be tossing back brewskis as they are to be sipping fine wines.

And of course, they’re always blowing smoke, like that from the Caldwell La Barba Purple cigar.

This blend takes Ecuadorian HVA-seed tobacco for the wrapper. For those who don’t know, HVA stands for Havana Vuelta Abajo, the main growing region in Cuba found near the northern tip of the island. This is the most prized leaf coming from Cuba, so it’s a great choice for seed when you’re trying to create something really special.

Under the wrapper comes a mix of Dominican tobaccos, like the Corojo binder and the filler leaf, which includes a type of tobacco called “Carbonell.” This was one of the leaves in Caldwell’s Last Tsar blend, and it’s clearly struck a chord with the blending team.

The Caldwell La Barba Purple cigar was blended in collaboration with both Henderson Ventura and Robert Caldwell and displays a ton of personality and flavor. This is a blend that people really get hooked by, and we encourage any fans of La Barba’s other smokes to give it a shot. If you can light this one up in the barbershop during your next shave, you’ve got the coolest barber around.

Any flaws/downsides?
