Fidalgro Negro

Fidalgro Negro is a Dominican-made blend with an unusual construction: a Connecticut shade wrapper from the United States wrapped around an all-Nicaraguan filler and binder. That combination is less common than you might think, pairing the clean, mild character of a Connecticut shade exterior with a more assertive, earthy Nicaraguan interior. The result sits in mild-to-medium territory, with the Connecticut wrapper smoothing out what might otherwise be a more intense Nicaraguan experience. Four vitolas are offered, all priced at three to three-and-a-half dollars per stick, placing this firmly in the bundle value segment.
