Description

Raymond Pages is the best young tobacco man we've seen since discovering AJ Fernandez in a small bodega back in 2008. Which is fitting, as Raymond (AJ's brother in law), immigrated from Cuba to Nicaragua and became his protege and top blender. Flash forward several years and today Raymond runs the Tabacalera Pages factory. He is already no doubt one of the most talented cigar makers in Esteli. Florida Man is among his finest, being smooth-as-silk, elegant, and refined. The Florida Man pays homage to Ernest Hemingway's 'The Old Man and The Sea'. Almost medium-bodied, with enough oomph to stay interesting, some nice spice on the lips and touch of pepper that you may not expect along with a pronounced floral note. Very interesting, complex, refined, with pepper and some creaminess. The Florida Man is in the line of cigars like Perdomo Champagne, Arturo Fuente, CAO Gold, Cohiba Connecticut, and Ave Maria Immaculata in terms of flavor profile.
