Crux Epicure

When Crux Cigars first announced the Epicure cigar in July 2016, it promised to be the company's inaugural Connecticut offering—a departure that would reshape the brand's identity. The Epicure quickly earned acclaim and became what Crux informally calls the "crown jewel" of its portfolio.

Crafted at Plasencia Cigars S.A. in Estelí, Nicaragua, the Epicure features an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos. This blend marked a pivotal moment for Crux, introducing a more refined, sophisticated aesthetic that would eventually influence the company's 2019 rebranding. Crux refused to "cut corners or compromise" in creating this blend, understanding that quality demanded patience.

Expect a smooth, creamy experience with a clean caramel finish that engages all five senses—a cigar designed for those who understand that indulgence isn't a bad thing. The Crux Epicure cigar delivers the kind of polish and consistency that would earn Crux multiple placements on Cigar of the Year lists and establish this line as the foundation for future releases. This is a testament to hard work paying off, both in the fields of Nicaragua and in the meticulous blending process that made it a household name for cigar hobbyists.
