PDR 1878 Santiago Maduro Toro

Authentic flavour from the Dominican Republic

The PDR 1878 Santiago Maduro Toro comes from the well-known PDR Cigars factory in Tamboril, Dominican Republic. Under the direction of master blender Abe Flores, hand-rolled cigars with high precision and a clear focus on aromatic depth are created there. In the Maduro version, the Santiago series is more powerful and darker, with an oily broadleaf wrapper that provides intense flavours, a finely structured sweetness and a particularly voluminous smoke - characteristics that are particularly evident in the Toro format.

Strong, complex, expressive

The Santiago Maduro Toro is ideal for connoisseurs who appreciate full-bodied and nuanced flavour experiences. Distinct notes of dark chocolate, espresso and roasted nuts unfold as soon as it is lit, accompanied by a well-measured spiciness. Thanks to the longer format, the flavour profile develops in a balanced and profound way. Subtle sweetness and creamy undertones round off the smoke. Despite the intense flavours, the cigar remains well-balanced throughout - a companion full of character for relaxed moments of enjoyment.
