Made by one of the hottest names in cigars right now, Jose “Don” Pepin Garcia, San Cristobal offers a unique smoking experience from almost every other cigar blended under the watchful eye of this master. Created for Ashton, the San Cristobal is a Nicaraguan puro featuring only the best filler and binder tobaccos, as well as the Pepin signature, flawless Nicaraguan wrapper. A rich and full-bodied smoke is what people have come to expect from a Pepin blended stick, and that is exactly what you get here. The only notable absence was the blast of spice found in almost all others cigars made by him. Despite not having this pepperiness, San Cristobal is still an unbelievably full-flavored smoke.


A sultry dark cigar has a golden band decorated with a colorful and majestic parrot. At first look we were astounded by the quality of the wrapper. It is hard to believe that a more perfect tobacco leaf could be found. Hardly a vein to be seen, we were sure San Cristobal would burn straight as an arrow, and we weren’t disappointed. Another marvel was how smooth the draw was considering how densely packed with tobacco this cigar felt. Initial puffs, as well as final ones, were like sipping through a straw. Initial light and smoke had a very small taste of pepper, not what we were used to from Pepin. Halfway through San Cristobal gave us a very pleasant surprise, a slight fruity, almost cherry-like, taste. Towards the end, this sweetness subsided, but it was a welcome addition to the complexity of this stick.


When one hears the name Don Pepin, they expect a perfectly constructed, full-flavor and body cigar, and that is exactly what San Cristobal delivers. Slightly heavy, but not a cigar which will overpower, we found it perfect for relaxing after a hard day of work, either in the office or on the golf course. If you would like try something with that signature Pepin pepper, we highly recommend the Don Pepin Garcia Black Label.
