Description

A potent yet smooth cigar with a rich earthiness, touches of cocoa, spice, and an overall meatiness. Its rustic Mexican San Andres maduro wrapper cloaks a Nicaraguan binder and filler. Handmade in Nicaragua, at AJ Fernandez’s San Lotano factory. “El Pulpo” is Spanish for “the octopus.” And like its namesake, the El Pulpo by Artesano del Tobacco will envelop your palate with its rich complexity and unique retro-hale and never let you go. So, be sure to buy a box or two. The El Pulpo by Artesano del Tobacco Belicoso Grande Box-Pressed received the #10 spot in the Top 25 Cigars of 2023 by Cigar Aficionado and a 94 rating.

Specifications

Brands
El Pulpo by Artesano del Tobacco
For more than five years, Artesano del Tobacco has worked on developing a unique blend that will capture the imagination and palate of cigar aficionados just like their first release Viva La Vida. And they did. The blend uses a mouthwatering Mexican San Andres maduro wrapper that’s stuffed with premium Nicaraguan tobacco from AJ Fernandez’s farms in Nicaragua. The El Pulpo is a full-strength, full-bodied cigar with a deep complexity that will surround your palate with its pleasing profile. The cigars are expertly hand crafted at AJ Fernandez’s San Lotano factory in Ocotal, Nicaragua.
Cigar Shape
Torpedo
The Torpedo was traditionally a fat cigar with two closed, tapered ends. Today, it is any cigar with a cut foot and straight body which tapers to a closed, pointed head.
Cigar Section
Box-Pressed (Square)
A box pressed cigar is a cigar that has a square shape. Originally, this shape came from the practice of packing round cigars tightly in cardboard boxes which are then compacted using a manual press. The cigars are thus pressed into each other and become a "squarish" or semi-square shape. Today, cigar makers use square shaped molds or a wooden trunk press for their box pressed cigars, achieving a more defined square section.
Cigar Length
5"3/4
This cigar is 5"3/4 inches long, or 146.05 mm.
Origin
Nicaragua
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.
Cigar Ring Gauge
58
The cigar ring gauge corresponds to the diameter of a cigar, this cigar has a ring gauge of 58, so his diameter is 58/64 inches or 23.11 mm.
Strength

Full
Wrapper Color
Maduro
Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Maduro wrapper can go from dark coffee brown with a reddish tint to blackish brown (the latter also called Oscuro).
Single Packaging
Cellophane
Rolling Type
Handmade
Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.
Cigar Manufacturer
AJ Fernandez
Cuban expatriate AJ Fernandez produces handmade cigars in Esteli, Nicaragua at the Tabacalera Fernandez factory. Fernandez learned everything he knows about tobacco and cigarmaking from his late grandfather, cigar legend Alejandro Robaina.
Cigar Wrapper
Mexican San Andres Maduro
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Mexican tobacco is very dark and the best leaves can be used as maduro wrappers. San Andres Maduro is a thick, medium bodied dark leaf, also called San Andres Morron. Like Connecticut Broadleaf, San Andres Maduro is stalk cut and used for binder and wrapper.
Cigar Binder
Nicaragua
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
Nicaraguan cigar binders are produced mainly in Esteli and Jalapa, both lands with volcanic soil and excellent climate for growing tobacco. Binders grown in Jalapa have sweet undertones. Corojo, Habana2000, Criollo, and Maduro binders are all produced in Nicaragua.
Cigar Filler
Nicaragua
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.

The El Pulpo by Artesano del Tobacco Belicoso is a medium to full-bodied cigar adorned with a rich Ecuadorian Habano wrapper. Upon lighting, a complex medley of flavors unfolded—notes of cedar, leather, and a subtle spiciness engage my palate, creating a well-balanced and enjoyable profile. The construction was impeccable, providing a smooth draw and an even burn throughout the entire smoke. The aroma was inviting, with a delightful mix of sweetness and earthiness. The El Pulpo Belicoso was a standout cigar, which offered me a memorable and enjoyable smoking experience.

A high quality cigar, which I would expect being made by San Lotano. Very complex and good. I likened the experience to a Padron, where no one flavor really takes over. I'll buy more of these.
