Fonseca was founded in Cuba in 1892 by Francisco E. Fonseca, then owned by the Quesada family for forty-five years. The García family took it on and rebuilt the blend.
A genuine multi-family heritage brand, made in the modern Nicaraguan style — cedar, sweet spice and a clean finish. Sizes include a 4.2-inch petite corona and the traditional Cosacos.
Wrapper: Nicaraguan Habano

The Cosacos at 5.3 by 42 is a proper old-fashioned shape. Worth trying for that alone.
