Grown in Nicaragua and Grown in 2015, this cigar filler has an earthy, woody flavor with notes of chocolate and pepper. Habano Viso is a stout yet serene filler slightly simpler than it’s counterpart Habano Ligero.
As with all Whole Leaf Tobacco products, this leaf comes in proper moisture content for working, but additional moisture might be needed to make the wrapper more pliable and elastic for wrapping.

A great viso, it’s essential to my blending kit.
If the above statement in any way makes this leaf harder for me to keep in supply, then I’ll be pissed. But at least I’ll be honest.

This is another one I’ll be keeping in stock. Great stuff!
Highly recommended.

What kind of witchcraft was done to make this tobacco?! It covers all the bases: depth of smoothness, spice, and a touch of sweetness. And a touch of campfire. This is from a purito I rolled yesterday. Absolutely my single favorite variety yet: wrapper, binder filler all this one. You probably don’t need much more if you’re a fan of the flavor you’d find in some famous Aganorsa blends. You could probably blend this any way you want: rich, lean, spicy, sweet… It’s complex as it is on its own. Infallible? Can it be? Well, whatever it is, it’s a great tobacco. This is one variety that resonates with me above and beyond the rest. Superlative. Okay. Let there be more!
Absolutely agree with Waikikigun and MarcL above… If you like a nice heavy Caribbean flavor, this might just be for you.

This batch is much thinner lighter and very subdued flavor compared to last batch.
Almost identical to the 2015 Nicaraguan seco

We recently received over 40 bales of cigar tobacco. Seven bales were Nicaragua tobacco. It is very possible that the bale was labeled incorrectly. We’ll look at it closer and compare it to other Nicaragua Viso and Seco…and from the sounds of what you’re saying, we’ll likely make it Seco.

Great, high quality tobacco that will give the that will give the Nicaraguan taste you are looking for. The Viso Condega is slightly sweet, bright and gives a more habanero type spice to my blends. One of my most used leaves.
Note – I am pretty sure I also received the seco instead of the viso on my last order as the leaves were much thinner and blends containing it were not near as strong. No problem though as I needed seco as well but hopefully we can still get the proper viso.

Whether this is Viso or Seco, it is very high quality leaf and I love working with it. Hopefully it will be in stock in 2023 again as I am down to just over 1lb of it left and I like to use it a lot.

One of my go to fillers and sadly it’s out of stock. It adds some depth to a nica blend. I love the spice it adds. Down to a half lb but I’ll make it last.
