The concept behind the project is simple enough"travel around and located unique, well-aged cigars produced by other manufactures that were either forgotten or lost. And of course, the final step is to slap some creative branding on the cigar and packaging and offer it up at a price much lower than the manufacturer intended.

United StatesCALDWELL LOST & FOUND MALPARIDOS TORO (UNBANDED)
Caldwell Lost & Found Malparidos unbanded toro features a Nicaraguan Habano wrapper and binder with Hondoran filler. As with all Caldwells, this tobacco is presumably well-aged. Part of the Lost & Found back story on this cigar is that only 1200 were ever made available. It’s probably accurate given how long I have been trying to obtain one. The name of the cigar had me confused initially. I thought Malparidos was a Silicon Valley suburb of San Francisco. Wait. That’s Milpitas (a charming little town). It opens with a heavy array of spice, aged tobacco notes, pepper creeps in with wood, cream, and coffee, But, after a minute or two oak and spice dominate the other flavors. It reminds of a slightly milder version of Southern Draw Kudzu. The retrohale gave up wood, nuts and mild pepper. The construction was generally good - cold draw with just enough resistance, copious amount of smoke output and nice grey ash that held well like a stack of nickels. It remained fastened to the stick to an inch and a half and rolled off very easily. There were some wrapper unraveling issues during the final third. Dock points. It’s easy to call the Malparidos a one-trick pony. The flavors are mostly wood and spice, but it was an enjoyable smoke until the wrapper issues at the finish line.

Overall very good stick plus with the length of the cigar you can smoke as you feel plus this won’t be overpowering or anything like that. This is a good morning cigar or any time of day so even if you like a night smoke here you are.
