The Sampetrina cigar, in a classic Robusto size (5” x 50), is dedicated to Petra Herrera, a courageous Soldadera of the Revolution. Known by the name “Sampetrina,” Herrera defied conventions by disguising herself as a man to join the forces under Pancho Villa. With remarkable leadership, she commanded up to a thousand soldiers, making her a legendary figure in the fight for freedom.
This medium-strength cigar provides a 46-minute journey of nuanced flavour, beginning with a delicate, smooth profile. Notes of nutmeg, freshly baked bread, and rich oak wood evoke the comforting warmth of an autumn season, making it a richly evocative smoke.
Wrapped in Connecticut with a binder from the Dominican Republic, the Sampetrina features a meticulously selected filler blend from Mexico and the Dominican Republic, creating a well-balanced, aromatic experience. Enjoy this cigar as a tribute to Petra’s strength and resilience, perhaps paired with a smooth, warming spirit to complement its autumnal notes.
