Count on Cuatro
In 1968, the first premium Nicara-
guan cigar was hand-rolled in Estelí
under the Joya de Nicaragua seal.
Joya de Nicaragua is honoring the
45th anniversary of that occasion
with the release of the Cuatro Cinco
Limited Edition cigar. Cuatro Cinco is
an authentic Nicaraguan puro, hand-
rolled in Estelí with tobaccos grown
in the region and in Jalapa, with a
special five-year-old ligero that the
factory has been saving in its bo-
degas for this special occasion. As
if that time wasn’t enough, the filler
tobaccos have been specially aged
in oak barrels for more than a year
to give them distinctive and sophis-
ticated notes, and the silky smooth
wrapper and binder are Nicaraguan
grown in the Jalapa valley.
“We are very excited about Cuatro
Cinco, for this is one of the few limit-
ed editions we have produced,” says
Dr. Alejandro Martínez Cuenca, chair-
man of Joya de Nicaragua. “While
this cigar promotes our heritage, it is
also a celebration of the future and
the many years we still have ahead of
us. It’s been 45 years already, and we
are just getting started!” Joya de Ni-
