Ecuadorian Habano Marron Ligero Wrapper

Unveil a new depth of flavor with our Ecuadorian Habano Marron Ligero Wrapper. This exceptional tobacco leaf, with its stunning deep chocolate-brown color, offers a delicious smoking experience with rich, earthy undertones and notes of coffee, spices, and pepper.

This leaf is a close cousin to the well-known Habano 2000 seed, and it's a testament to the unique growing conditions of Ecuador. The country's fertile, volcanic soil and year-round cloud cover—which acts as a natural shade—are key to producing a wrapper leaf that is prized for its pristine appearance, incredible flavor, and pliability.

The "Marron Ligero" designation refers to the dark color ("marron" meaning brown) and its position on the tobacco plant. As a "ligero" leaf, it's harvested from the upper part of the plant, where it receives the most sun and nutrients. This results in a thicker, more full-bodied leaf with a higher nicotine content, adding a powerful kick to any blend.

What truly sets it apart, however, are the thin, well-spaced veins, a characteristic that makes it an ideal choice for a smooth, flawless wrap and a superior smoking experience. This leaf is not just for professionals; it's a fronto-grade choice for anyone looking to create a premium, full-flavored cigar.

In comparison to our Glasgow Magistrate Wrapper, our Blind Monkey Wrapper or our Picaroon Wrapper, this leaf is somewhat smaller, but you'll get many more leaves per pound.

Leaves are unbound and separated from each other for orders of a pound or less. If you'd prefer your order to be untouched and bound together in 'hands' by the farmer, we're happy to accommodate you. Just let us know. Large and wholesale orders are shipped in bound 'hands' of tobacco.
