RoMa Craft CroMagnon

PA Broadleaf

For 2024, RoMa Craft’s beloved CroMagnon is getting a pretty notable—and totally exciting- facelift. After struggling with the difficulties of finding Connecticut wrapper that met the craft company’s stringent standards, the new CroMagnon will contain a Pennsylvania Broadleaf wrapper grown in the potassium-rich soils of Lancaster county. Not to worry, cigar connoisseurs can rest assured that this new revamp does not in any way stray away from the brands most notable features. Sure to add a depth of spiciness and sweetness to a cigar that was already renown for a beautiful full-bodied boldness and complexity the wrapper replacement stands in strong to the original Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. Pennsylvania broadleaf wrappers are a symbol of the state’s rebirth as a tobacco growing stronghold, still relying on the traditional Amish methods reminiscent of a life before electricity and gasoline powered engines. Inside the new CroMagnon line extension are a Sumatra hybrid binder and fillers sourced from both the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. Gone is the cigar’s former pairing of Nicaraguan binder and fillers from Cameroon. Like a talisman guiding you from the past where expert craftsmanship and pride reign supreme leading you into a future where enlightenment and innovation awaits, what a time for RoMa fans to be alive. The exciting development means an all-new lineup from the team at RoMa Craft Tobac, one of the industry’s most exciting craft artisans. Spearheaded by Skip Martin and Michael Rosales, this line falls seamlessly into the brand’s world class standards centered around the combination of premium tobacco, pragmatic aging and some of the most experienced cigar rollers in the industry. Rarely do fans of a cigar get a chance to experience such a different take on a sought-after classic. Loyalists of the CroMagnon brand will remember that back in 2016, the CroMagnon Anthropology was named one of the 20 best cigars of the year by Cigar Aficionado. The publication specifically noted the unique flavor profile put forth by Roma from pairing Connecticut broadleaf with Nicaraguan filler and an unorthodox Cameroon binder. This set off a fireworks show of earthiness, nuttiness and chocolate notes that won accolades across the industry truly putting RoMa on the map. The combination, although surprising, when it comes to the cigar industry, we shouldn’t be shocked by anything that the RoMa line comes out with. This brand is always pushing boundaries and challenging our palates offering other industry standouts like Baka, Intemperance, and the Neanderthal line. All created from the cozy Fabrica de Tabacos NicaSueño S.A., a headquarters in Nicaragua instilling a feel of something innately intimate. It’s this continued entrepreneurial spirit and creative drive that will keep RoMa top of mind when discussing the most forward thinking and convention-challenging names in cigars.
