Erik Espinosa is one of the "young guns" of the cigar industry who began making his mark as early as 1997. Having worked with such companies as Gurkha, Alec Bradley, Drew Estate, and Rocky Patel cigars, he's worked in practically every phase of the business from sales manager, to independent tobacco broker, to owning his own retail cigar store.
Today, Erik is the blender and manufacturer for some of the best boutique cigars. Made at his La Zona factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, they include 601, Espinosa, La Zona, and Laranja Reserva.
Produced in Nicaragua at the AJ Fernandez San Lotano facility, the quality is sky-high. Fieri and Espinosa put together the blend card with a golden Ecuador Connecticut wrapper and all Nicaraguan tobacco underneath. Smooth and creamy with no shortage of flavor, this Connecticut gem lands nicely at an even medium-bodied profile.
Good News! Knuckle Sandwich Connecticut has earned a 91 rating, noting: “Wrapped in an attractive tan cover leaf, this box-pressed cigar offers a creamy smoke with sweet notes of grain, balsa wood and graham cracker before a lush finish of meaty fruits. It has a fine draw and excellent combustion.”
