Esoterica Tobacciana Hastings

Hastings is a loosely cut, fine shag blend where Virginia leaves meet sugared black cavendish. It stays close to the traditional English aromatic approach: the topping isn't heavy, and most of the sweetness comes from the cavendish process itself. The brand belongs to the US-based Arango Cigar Co; the blend is produced in England by J. F. Germain & Son and rested before sale. Because of the cavendish share, a soft crust is expected to form in the bowl, so drying and a slow smoke help.
