La Estancia cigars arrived on the market in 2014. The brand is still young and unknown by aficionados. The brand was created by the Meerapfel family. La Estancia was created by two brothers, Jeremiah and Joshua, and is based on the tobacco heritage and expertise acquired by the previous four generations of this family. These premium cigars are made in Honduras from carefully selected local tobacco leaves from Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic and Cuba.
The largest ring gauge in the Edición Exclusiva series, this EE60 doesn’t shout—it settles in and makes itself comfortable. A collaboration of Cuban tobacco (pre-embargo, no less) and Nicaraguan leaves, this cigar is the personal blend of the Meerapfel family—names you’ll recognise from their work with Padron, Fuente, and more.
Right away, the wrapper catches the light with its coffee-and-mahogany glow, and the triple gold band makes it clear this one plays in a different league. At 6 inches long and 60 ring, it’s a solid 90-minute companion.
Light it, and you're greeted with creamy coffee and roasted hazelnuts. There's structure here too—wood, cocoa, and a trace of white pepper. The construction holds steady the whole way through: easy draw, smooth burn, nothing to distract from what’s in the smoke.
Balanced, mellow, but not dull—this is a cigar for when you’ve got the time to enjoy one properly. Quiet moments, long evenings, or just because you've earned it.
