Villiger La Flor de Ynclan Robusto

Villiger, a renowned cigar manufacturer with a long history dating back to the 19th century, has long been driven to craft not just a good, but an exceptional premium cigar. For Heinrich Villiger, the company's owner and chairman, this pursuit was rooted in his passion for high-quality cigars, rather than financial gain, as Villiger is already a highly successful enterprise. The company's perseverance paid off with the La Flor de Ynclan. Initially, the brand's launch was met with a muted response, and it was eventually discontinued. However, Villiger persisted, collaborating with José Matias Maragoto to rework the blend from scratch. The revamped La Flor de Ynclan was re-released in 2017, boasting a significantly enhanced profile. The cigar now delivers a consistently sweet and charming experience from start to finish, featuring a straightforward yet pleasing core of chocolate and salt flavors, complemented by nuanced notes of walnut and orange marmalade. This reimagined cigar has earned Villiger its first Cigar Aficionado Top 10 ranking, marking a notable milestone for the storied company.
