El Club del Turro – Escopeta (Robusto)

The “Escopeta” (shotgun) is a bold, full-bodied robusto handcrafted in Puerto Rico and created exclusively by Antonio Castro Barreto, one of the founders of El Club del Turro. This standout cigar features a Habano Vuelta Abajo (HVA) wrapper, a Corojo binder, and a rich blend of Puerto Rican Corojo and Dominican Ligero fillers for a layered, intense smoke.

Expect deep, earthy tones with peppery intensity and smooth complexity. The Dominican ligero adds strength and richness, while the Puerto Rican-grown Corojo balances the blend with natural sweetness and bold character.

🖐 Craftsmanship & Origin:
The “Escopeta” is hand-rolled in small batches at Finca Neo Jibairo in Río Grande, Puerto Rico, using Puerto Rican Corojo tobacco harvested on-site and Dominican ligero to create a truly Caribbean experience.

📦 Packaging Options:
Available in singles, packs of 5, or boxes of 20. Each cigar is sealed for optimal freshness and individually inspected.

🔥 Ideal For:
Smokers who appreciate a strong, rich cigar that delivers depth and a powerful finish — perfect for end-of-day relaxation or pairing with a barrel-aged rum.
