If you could hop into a time machine and go back 15 years, I imagine that someone at Altadis U.S.A.—or more specifically, its current parent company, Imperial Brands, plc—would have gone to Nicaragua and decided to open up a factory of its own.

At the time, Nicaragua was still the third player when it came to producing cigars for the U.S., overshadowed by both the Dominican Republic and Honduras. It’s quite possible that Nicaragua was producing a similar number of cigars, if not more than Honduras—but it didn’t have as many of the established and massive operations as its northwestern neighbor. Many names that you are familiar with were making cigars in the country—Drew Estate, Joya de Nicaragua, NACSA, Oliva, Padrón, Perdomo, Plasencia, CAO/Toraño—but Estelí was a lot different. I know this despite the fact that I hadn’t been to the country at that point. But I remember what people were saying the first time I visisted Estelí a decade ago, the growth had been tremendous for both the city and its cigar factories. And comparing that city and its cigar factories to the one I saw earlier this year is almost like comparing two different places.

Altadis U.S.A. doesn’t have a factory in Nicaragua and while there have been some attempts to fix that over the years—including coming close to buying an existing operation in the country—it seems unlikely that it’s going to build one anytime soon. Unfortunately for the company, Nicaragua is the epicenter of growth in the cigar market and so Altadis U.S.A. has taken some of the prestigious names in its catalog and contracted other people to make cigars for them.

Earlier this year, the company announced that one of its most popular cigars—the Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real—would get a Nicaraguan extension by way of Tabacalera AJ Fernandez.

It’s a four-size line that uses tobacco from Fernandez’s farms in Nicaragua.

Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Nicaragua Robusto (5 x 50) — $8.77 (Box of 25, $219.25)
Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Nicaragua Toro (6 x 54) — $9.03 (Box of 25, $225.75)

It was originally scheduled to be released in March, but due to the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic the cigar was delayed to a mid-May shipment.
