The Joya Silver is a medium-to-full bodied cigar that maintains balance and harmony throughout the smoking experience. It begins with an earthy core that develops layers of dried fruit, roasted nuts and coffee bean. The cigar delivers dynamic complexity of fresh spice, chocolate and cherry notes, while professional reviews note initial notes of earth and cocoa that burst with roasted coffee, dark chocolate and dark fruits, with the smoke being intense yet finely trimmed with an elegant crème brûlée sweetness. Joya de Nicaragua, the oldest cigar factory in Nicaragua, created this blend as a departure from their traditional flavor profile toward more modern blending and presentation. The cigar features an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, Mexican San Andres binder and Nicaraguan fillers. The oscuro upper-priming wrapper showcases the perfect complement between the richness of the Nicaraguan fillers and the refined sweetness of the Ecuador grown wrapper and Mexican binder. Joya Silver was released as part of the company's 50th anniversary celebration and is the first box-pressed line in the Joya series. The Corona size earned a 92-point rating and ranked #21 in Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 Cigars of 2019, while the line later received a 93-point rating and #16 ranking in 2021. All vitolas are priced under $8, making this an accessible premium option. The blend features dominant creamy cashew and marzipan sweetness combinations, excellent balance and wonderful construction, making it suitable for smoking any time of day.
