The Secret Language of Cigars: Cigar Seed Varietals EXPLAINED

Every cigar starts with a seed. Believe it or not, that tiny thing has a lot to say about what you’ll taste when you light up.

In this episode of The Secret Language of Cigars, we’re cracking open the truth about cigar seed varietals. From Criollo and Corojo to Connecticut, Cameroon, and San Andrés, I’ll walk you through what each seed brings to the table, how they’ve evolved over time, and which ones are responsible for the cigars you already know and love.

We’ll cover Cuban heritage seeds, native varietals, and modern hybrids — plus the real differences between stuff like Broadleaf vs Shade, and why San Andrés isn’t just a region or a wrapper color.

If you’ve ever wondered why two cigars with the same filler taste totally different, the answer might be in the seed.
