Description
The JFR Lunatic Short Robusto Maduro is a 52-ring robusto: a dark San Andrés, Mexico wrapper rolled around Aganorsa-grown Nicaraguan tobacco. Aganorsa Leaf’s own size chart makes its 52 ring the slimmest in the Lunatic Maduro blend. The maker, Cigar Coop and halfwheel put its length at 4 1/4 inches, though a few retailers print 4 3/4.
