Sam Leccia

Sam Leccia knows cigars. The guy has spent years in the business in nearly every facet you can think of and mastered all of them. Without a family that has generations in business, Leccia has risen to the top and can hold his own with any master blender. Not bad for a guy from Western Pennsylvania, huh? And after a three year hiatus from the cigar industry, he’s back and better than ever. As usual, his cigars are innovative, well-made, and expertly blended.

Crafted in the Dominican Republic, Sam Leccia Black is a welcome addition to the cigar industry. Boasting an incredibly complex blend of Brazilian viso and Dominican and Nicaraguan ligeros, this medium to full-bodied cigar packs a punch. Add on a Nicaraguan Rosado binder and then top it off with smooth Habano wrapper and you have an amazing debut blend. To further things, Leccia uses some dark-fired tobaccos to add a smokey flavor with hints of sweetness on the finish.
