What is a Maduro Cigar?

A Maduro Cigar refers to a cigar that has a darker wrapper. Maduro Cigars are a type of cigar that is made from an extra-fermented wrapper. The fermentation process is what gives Maduro cigars their distinct color and taste. Maduro Cigars are created by fermenting the leaves used to wrap the cigar longer than other types of tobacco. This causes the leaves to darken, which also affects their taste and smell. Hence, Maduro translated from Spanish means mature or ripe.

Maduro Cigars can be traced back to 1786, when Don Jose Gener was growing tobacco in Cuba. He found that when he left his crop out in the sun for too long, it turned black, which would eventually become known as Maduro Tobacco. Don Jose Gener’s discovery led to the birth of a new cigar wrapper and the term Maduro cigars.
