Daniel Marshall has joined forces with Manuel Quesada, who has been making cigars since 1974 and rated the "Number One Cigar Of The Year," by Cigar Aficionado Magazine. This special Cigar is Marshall's and Quesada's concept of the ideal cigar; bold and vibrant. Together they spent a year perfecting the unique blend. Manuel Quesada oversees the making of the DM2 Limited Edition with Nicaragua's largest grower of cigar tobacco, Nestor Plasencia, and created this blend in Plasencia's Segovia Cigar factory. The collection of three cigars saw first light in the summer at an industry trade show. The tobacco is grown in two very different regions of Nicaragua: tobacco from Estelí (the area where most Nicaraguan cigars are produced) tends to be strong, while that grown in Jalapa, to the north, is typically more balanced and elegant. Together they combine to create a full-flavored cigar, full of rich chocolate and coffee notes and balanced by a cedary sweetness with a hint of cinnamon.
