Zino Nicaragua Gordo

Live life from A to Zino
Wherever your A begins and wherever your Z may lie, wherever life takes you, take a Zino with you on your journey.

Handy Freshpack

The Zino Nicaragua is available in a handy Freshpack containing four cigars. This keeps the cigars fresh for several weeks and allows them to be stored without a humidor. The Freshpack is resealable.

The story

Some people are happy simply to get from A to B. Steadily forwards, straight ahead, without getting distracted, but heading straight for their destination. Whilst others want to experience everything from A to Z and take every detour that takes their fancy.

Thoughts are free and all doors are open. Who knows what the day or night might bring? Or what possibilities life might open up?

In his search for the finest tobacco, he let the wind guide him. It is this uncompromising commitment to quality that makes these Zino cigars so exceptional.

The idea

Zino had a lot in common with today’s younger generation. They, too, are open-minded, seeking experiences and adventures, and go through the world with their eyes wide open to live their lives from A to Z.

The new Zino cigars are ready to rise to this challenge. They surprise with a balanced blend of Central American and Caribbean tobaccos that are both exciting and pleasant.

The flavour experience

First third: The cigar opens with pronounced notes of fresh pepper, particularly on the retronasal palate. A long-lasting finish with notes of cedarwood and coffee.

Second third: The peppery notes give way to pleasant salty flavours. Aromas of salted nuts, leather and cream are present. The cigar becomes more balanced and develops a creamy character.

Third third: It’s incredible how the flavours continue to develop into coffee with milk, spices and dark chocolate. The cigar does not increase in intensity and leaves a pleasant aftertaste.

Pairing recommendations

Traditional: To complement the robust and spicy notes of Zino cigars, pairing them with a Nicaraguan or Cuban rum is a safe bet. The spicy and sweet character of the rum perfectly brings out the cigars’ flavours.

Unconventional: A craft beer that caresses the palate with deep, malty flavours is the ideal counterpart to the spicy and creamy character of Zino cigars.
