El Pulpo The EEL

Artesano del Tobacco is expanding its acclaimed El Pulpo line with a new lancero vitola, aptly named The Eel. This 7 x 38 pigtail-capped lancero stays true to the core blend of the series, featuring a Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and filler. However, what sets The Eel apart is a unique fermentation process applied to both the wrapper and binder, designed to enhance its natural sweetness and refine its overall profile.

Crafted at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez Cigars de Nicaragua S.A. in Estelí, The Eel represents the brand’s commitment to delivering innovative and refined smoking experiences.

“We owe our success to our loyal consumers,” the company stated in a press release. “Based on the overwhelming support and high ratings of the El Pulpo blend, we reached out to our fans for their input on what size they would like next. The majority expressed their desire for a Lancero that showcases the beauty of our San Andrés Maduro wrapper. We believe they are absolutely right—this size not only celebrates but highlights our well-aged San Andrés Maduro wrapper.”

With its slim, elegant format, The Eel is crafted to emphasize the richness and complexity of the El Pulpo blend, offering an enhanced experience for aficionados who appreciate refined construction and deep, layered flavors.

The Eel is Available in 5 Packs and Boxes of 10
