After scouring the world’s best cigar factories for orphaned cigars, Caldwell Lost & Found Instant Classic cigars mark a change in the Lost & Found strategy. I have long looked forward to enjoying whatever new smoke Lost & Found comes across, but their pivot toward commissioning blends from these factories has me intrigued.Part of Lost & Found’s new step is Instant Classic, a trio of blends coming from the famous Tabacalera William Ventura. These treats are also only available in one size per blend at the moment, but word on the street is that Instant Classic is going to be available in more vitolas down the line.First up is the Instant Classic Habano Toro. This premium smoke is offered as a 6.75x50 vitola and is made with a top-quality Ecuadorian Habano wrapper over a core of perfectly aged Dominican fillers, resulting in a sweet and spicy medium-bodied smoke with hints of nuts.Next in the trio is Instant Classic San Andres Toro Fino, a slim 5.75x48 vitola that wears a dusky San Andres Mexican wrapper, a Dominican binder, and choice Nicaraguan and Dominican long fillers. These gems take it up a notch to medium-full bodied with rich notes of chocolate, spice, leather, tobacco sweetness, and earth.Last but certainly not least is the Instant Classic Limited Edition 2018 Box Pressed Toro. This 6x52 vitola boasts a top-shelf hybrid Habano wrapper that cloaks a hearty Ecuadorian binder and Dominican Criollo and San Vincente long fillers. This special limited release dazzles the palate with a flavorful yet refined medium-bodied smoke that is bursting with vibrant complexity.These smokes were instant classics for my humidor and can be for yours too when you order Caldwell Lost & Found Instant Classic online today from Cigars.com!
