Nicaraguan Vs. Honduran Vs. Dominican

This can also be complicated by cigars being labeled as a Honduran because that is where it is made but it uses all Nicaraguan tobacco. Or a Dominican Made cigar that has an Ecuadorian wrapper, Dominican binder, and fillers from Costa Rica, Mexico, Honduras and Nicaragua. Then you have Connecticut, Sumatran, and Cameroon tobacco as well.

My recommendation would be to try various cigars and then research what was in them. If you like it make a note and look for similar cigars. I for one like cigars with Ecuadorian/Connecticut Shade wrappers with Nicaraguan binder and filler (ie Cabaiguan, 601 Black). Now knowing this if I saw some new cigar that had those components I might buy it. But just because a cigar has those leaves doesn't mean its a sure thing for me as I tried the Perdomo Habano Connecticut and it didn't suit me.
