Description
The JFR Lunatic Short Robusto Habano is a 4 1/4 x 52 robusto that rolls Nicaraguan binder and filler inside an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, made by Aganorsa Leaf in Nicaragua. Cigar Coop’s 2022 overview of the Lunatic family highlights its 60, 70 and 80 ring gauges, and no size in Aganorsa Leaf’s Habano list is slimmer than this 52.

Both reviews put the strength at medium-full. The tasters found it deeply nutty, with cashew and walnut sitting on top of a dark-roast coffee foundation.
