The Kolumbus K-Azul Piramide is a cigar made in the Canary Islands, which, although it is not one of the best-known countries for the production of cigars, boasts a history of tobacco cultivation that is about 300 years long. There are three lines belonging to this brand, each identified by a band that differs exclusively in color (red, brown, and blue). The three lines then share the same three formats: a robusto, a pyramid, and a short robusto.
Aesthetically, the cigars are presented in a “minimal” way, with a rather spartan but clean band and, all in all, fairly captivating in its simplicity. They are dressed in a Claro wrapper leaf, which feels rough to the touch. The filling shows some gaps and is not particularly uniform in several spots.
