The Esteban Carreras Soga de Oro Sumatra Toro stands out with its distinctive rope-style tobacco band, replacing the traditional cigar band and giving the blend its name — Soga de Oro, meaning “rope of gold.” This unique presentation reflects old-world craftsmanship while creating a bold, handcrafted identity that immediately sets the cigar apart.
Wrapped in an Ecuadorian Sumatra seed wrapper over a Condega-grown Nicaraguan binder and aged Nicaraguan long-filler tobaccos, this Toro delivers a balanced medium-full bodied smoking experience. From the first draw, the profile opens with notes of earth, cedar, and natural spice, gradually evolving into layers of roasted nuts, leather, and subtle sweetness.
As the cigar progresses, richer Maduro-style undertones emerge, including cocoa and espresso, adding depth without overpowering the palate. The 5¾ x 54 Toro vitola promotes an even burn and consistent draw, allowing the blend’s complexity to develop smoothly from start to finish. A secondary foot band provides product identification while preserving the signature rope-wrapped aesthetic that defines the Soga de Oro line.
Crafted for enthusiasts who appreciate distinctive presentation and refined Nicaraguan flavour, the Soga de Oro Sumatra Toro offers both visual character and a well-structured smoking experience.
