It’s been an interesting journey for the Crux Epicure Maduro to make it to market. First, when it was announced in 2018, it was branded as the Crux Epicure Galant. It’s actually the second “Epicure”-branded cigar following the Connecticut Shade Crux Epicure blend. Prior to the actual release, the cigar was rebranded the Crux Epicure Maduro. As mentioned above, the Crux Epicure Maduro would make it to market in 2019, but shortly after that Crux Cigars underwent a major packaging overhaul in terms of logo, boxes, and branding.
There is one difference with the Crux Epicure Maduro as opposed to all of the other cigars in the Crux Cigars portfolio. Since its inception in 2014, the company has worked with the Plasencia factory in Estelí, Nicaragua to handle its production. With the Crux Epicure Maduro, the production is handled out of the Tabacalera AJ Fernandez de Nicaragua – also in Estelí, Nicaragua.
Blend and Origin
The Crux Epicure Maduro features a San Andres Maduro wrapper. The remainder of the blends are all-Nicaraguan tobaccos.
