El Cantante Habano – A Rich, Velvety Song in Every Draw

El Cantante Habano —“The Singer”—is more than just a cigar. It’s a performance. A composition of flavor. A bold yet balanced blend handcrafted at Hanley’s Cigar Company in the Dominican Republic, where attention to detail and respect for the tobacco’s voice lead the way.

Wrapped in a deep, dark Habano 2000 Oscuro leaf and built on a foundation of aged Criollo 98, Habano 2020, and Pennsylvania fillers, this cigar delivers a smooth, medium-bodied experience with decadent notes of cocoa, leather, and sweet mocha. Every puff sings.
