In this age of mass produced cigars by the millions,  cigar smokers have become accustom to the ammonia bite in the cigars they smoke as being the norm.

This Ammonia bite sensation  has become part of the smoking experience in the majority of cigars today. Some call it "the buzz" and take it for granted that every cigar has it. Bucanero Cigars maybe one of the lone exceptions.

Regardless of what claim lies in the aging process the truth is you should not have this experience with a fine cigar.

The fact is, that Ammonia is a natural unwanted ingredient in all tobacco, however it is meant to be removed in a prolonged aging process.

Fine tobacco should be aged to the point that these impurities are fermented out of the tobacco. In this day of mass produced cigars, the extended aging process is too costly and time consuming for most mass produced cigar manufactures. So the ammonia bite has become the norm in many cigars today. No at Bucanero.

As a small cigar manufacture we take the time to age our fine tobaccos. We blend our cigars from 11 different countries fine tobaccos which gives us our signature blends. Bucanero is known for high quality blends aged to perfection, that are purge free with no ammonia bite.  All 22 Bucanero blends are distinctive in flavor due to the wide varieties of fine tobaccos we use.

The Bucanero Challenge:

Take any cigar you enjoy smoking regardless of cost and smoke it half down, then place it in your ash tray and allow it to go cold out. You say that's crazy because when you re-lite it an hour later you know what's coming. That horrible bitter after taste on re-lite!

So what causes this?

When a cigar is being savored, as it burns down, the impurities travel up the cigars shaft ahead of the heat of the burn. So when the cigar is allowed to go out and you re-lite it, the first thing you experience is that horrible taste of these impurities, which have become crystallized.  Thus the  impurities such as ammonia remain in the cigar robbing the cigar of its true flavor. The re-light at this time for many is the time they purge the cigar by trying to blow out this horrible taste.

Now, fire up any Bucanero cigar, smoke it half down, and then let it go out and an hour or a day later re-lite it. What you will experience is not even a hint of pungency, No bite,  No Ammonia buzz, just pure smoking pleasure.

We challenge you to find any cigar regardless of cost that can deliver the Bucanero “purge free smoking experience” that allows you to savor the pure flavors of the cigar on you palette. Thus a true cigar smoking experience.

At Bucanero, we take the aging process seriously.
