Don Palomon Mazo of the Great Fire

The Don Palomon Mazo del Fuego embodies pure Nicaraguan power – intense, full of character and, at the same time, remarkably well-balanced. The blend is made from 100% Nicaraguan tobacco and combines the volcanic spice of Estelí with the natural sweetness of Jalapa and the depth of Ometepe. The result: a rich, well-structured cigar that captivates from the very first minute. Whether for a relaxing evening after work or a special moment with friends – the Don Palomon Mazo del Fuego offers impressive value for money.

Origin & Blend

The Don Palomon Mazo del Fuego is a Nicaraguan puro: Corojo wrapper (Jalapa, Colorado), Jalapa binder and a filler blend of Jalapa Seco, Estelí Ligero and Ometepe Viso. This blend of origins strikes a balance between strength, spice and sweetness – with a consistent draw and a creamy smoke texture. Each cigar is hand-rolled and presented in boxes of 20.

Sizes & Smoking Time

The range comprises several vitolas, each offering a different interpretation of the profile: Toro Gordo 6" × 58 (approx. 60–75 mins), Churchill 7" × 50 (approx. 75–90 mins) and Gordo (large ring gauge for maximum intensity). They all share the same signature: rich, deeply aromatic and yet pleasantly rounded. Ideal with espresso or cask-aged rum; those who prefer a dry finish should opt for a full-bodied single malt.

Flavours & Character

On the draw, the Don Palomon Mazo del Fuego opens with espresso, hickory and pepper, followed by charred wood, cocoa/chocolate and almonds. In the final third, oak, coffee and subtle spicy notescome to the fore; the Jalapa wrapper contributes cedar and a subtle natural sweetness. Overall, medium-bodied to full-bodied, consistently balanced – a modern, authentic Nicaraguan signature.
