Description:

Mi Querida Triqui Traca (pronounced “me kay-ree-dah tree-kee trah-ka”) is arguably our boldest cigar released to date. 
“Triqui Traca” is local Nicaraguan slang for oversized firecrackers that are connected by fuses in a long  serial string. These explosive ropes are then laid down the center of the street and sometimes stretch multiple blocks. Ignited from one end, they explode in a cascading line of powerful concussions and blinding light down the entire length of the street. Triqui Traca are often ignited on the celebration of important religious and national holidays. This cultural icon is an ideal moniker for the power and explosive nature of this cigar. 
At its core, it remains our quintessential Mi Querida blend with its earthy, sweet broadleaf notes, but with the incorporation of a couple refinements. The capa has been switched from the traditional  Connecticut Broadleaf Mediums to the rarer No. 1 Dark corona leaves plus a unique, high octane ligero grown in the Dominican Republic has also been introduced into the liga. The resulting cigar retains its  inherent sweet loam and chocolate characteristics, yet delivers a significantly fuller-bodied smoking experience.
