Laranja Reserva Robusto Extra Cigars


When Erik Espinosa parted ways with his former business partner and began his solo venture into the world of premium cigars, things got off to a fairly slow start. That is, of course, until 2014, when he introduced what many considered to be one of the most intriguing cigars to hit the market in years, and the stick that would become one of his crowning achievements: Laranja Reserva Robusto Extra. Named after the Portuguese word for "orange," Laranja Reserva isn't named only after the orange packaging theme, but also for the orange-hued Brazilian wrapper leaf that gives this blend its character. Espinosa calls the leaf "Brazilian Laranja," although no such leaf actually exists. Still, however, this gorgeous leaf mixes beautifully with the blend of Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos inside, coming together to make a cigar worthy of a 94 rating in Cigar Aficionado, along with a spot on the magazine's prestigious Top 25 Cigars of 2015. With this chain of events, Espinosa Cigars would be established as a hot name in the cigar business and Erik and his team would end up taking advantage of the momentum to continue to build the legacy.


Built by hand at the famous La Zona factory in Nicaragua, Laranja Reserva comes lovingly packed in black wooden chests adorned with gold insignia. The white, orange, and gold bands denote the blend, along with a single orange ribbon around the foot of each vitola. Construction is precise, with no detail overlooked. An easy, smooth draw guarantees plenty of thick, silky smoke on each puff. Toasty cedar is the first star of this show, soon accompanied by white pepper and earthy, bold tobacco flavor. This classic, yet intense, core of the flavor profile remains consistent throughout the experience. Floral notes decorate the retro hale, and the finish is full and spicy. All in all, Laranja Reserve is a well-balanced example of what a premium full-bodied cigar should be. The Robusto Extra is 5 ½" x 54 and offers a beautiful version of the flavor profile.


Full, complex, and elegant, Laranja Reserva is a great stick for experienced connoisseurs. Beginners should steer clear, however, as the strength and complexity of Laranja Reserva—the exact things that make it desirable to the experienced—will likely leave a lesser-seasoned palate in disarray. This cigar pairs beautifully with bourbon or full-bodied beer and makes a great choice for an after-dinner treat. Brazilian tobacco is typically strong and spicy, carrying a certain flavor all its own. For this reason, fans of other Brazilian-cloaked cigars such as CAO Brazilia or Trinidad Espiritu Series No. 2 will doubtless enjoy this blend. Espinosa Cigars is now a massive company offering a plethora of phenomenal blends. If you haven't tried Laranja Reserva Robusto Extra, wait no longer to experience the very cigar that took the brand into the spotlight.
