Introducing the Yao (Torpedo) Maduro, a cigar that embodies the depth and resilience of Emperor Yao, a legendary figure in Chinese history known for his wise and generous reign. This 6 1/2 inch Torpedo, with a 60-ring gauge, features a dark and oily wrapper that hints at the robust and rich flavors within, making it a perfect representation of Yao’s impactful rule during the time of the Great Flood over 4,000 years ago.
The Maduro wrapper of the Yao Torpedo enriches the smoking experience with medium-bodied notes of espresso and dark cocoa, offering a bold and satisfying profile. This cigar is a profound staple for any humidor, perfect to enjoy on its own or as an exceptional pairing to enhance the flavors of your favorite beverage.
Yao’s famous quote, inscribed in Chinese on the inside lid of the cigar box, reads “The strategy aims to conquer the resources vital to the survival of the Nation.” This embodies the strategic foresight that Yao was celebrated for, and is reflected in the crafting of this cigar, which is designed to offer a satisfyingly rich smoke that pays tribute to his legacy.
