Storage Instructions
For Quintero Londres Extra (25) store your cigars in a stable humidor to preserve their aroma and flavor. Aim for a relative humidity of 68-72% and a temperature between 68-70 ºF (20-21 ºC). Use a quality hygrometer and check it regularly to avoid wide swings. A cedar-lined humidor helps maintain even humidity and enhances the tobacco over time. For short trips use a sealed travel humidor with a reliable humidification pack. Avoid storing cigars in refrigerators or freezers as rapid temperature and humidity changes can damage the wrapper and cause condensation. If you are seasoning a new humidor or recharging humidification elements use distilled water or a purpose made solution to prevent mineral build up.
Care Tips
Handle Quintero Londres Extra (25) with clean dry hands and steady pressure to protect the wrapper. Leave the band on while you inspect and pre-cut as this reduces handling marks. When cutting choose a sharp guillotine or a precise cutter that suits the ring gauge to avoid tearing. Toast the foot gently and light evenly to get the best draw and burn. Newly purchased cigars can be enjoyed right away but will often integrate and smooth out after 2 to 6 months in a proper humidor. For collectors consider aging select sticks from 1 to 3 years to reveal deeper complexity. Keep cigars rotated occasionally so airflow and humidity remain uniform and watch for signs of excess humidity such as a fuzzy mold or a sour smell. A fine stored cigar rewards patience and careful handling with a truer expression of its blend and wrapper character.

Craftsmanship reflects the brand’s broader tradition of careful blending and consistent rolling, which aims to balance pleasant aromatic qualities with straightforward smoking pleasure. For those who enjoy traditional Cuban character without an overly aggressive profile, Quintero offers a dependable option rooted in a long lived cigar heritage.
Tasting Notes
The Quintero Londres Extra (25) delivers a polished, medium-bodied experience that will appeal to aficionados who prize balance and nuance. Initial draws offer warm cedar and sweet hay, followed by toasted almond and a gentle black-pepper spice that frames the smoke. Midpalate notes of creamy leather and subtle cocoa emerge, supported by a whisper of molasses sweetness and earthy richness. Aromas of cured tobacco, faint floral honey and warm earth linger on the retrohale, finishing long and satisfyingly savory.
Pairing Suggestions
Aged rum (añejo), the caramel and vanilla notes of a well-aged rum echo the cigar’s molasses and cocoa undertones while its oak-driven warmth complements the cedar and leather. Espresso, a robust Italian espresso cuts through the smoke with bright Acidity and concentrated bitterness, sharpening the cigar’s nutty and peppery facets for a lively contrast. 70% dark chocolate or a single-origin cocoa square, the cocoa’s bittersweet depth mirrors the cigar’s chocolate and earthy notes, creating a harmonious, indulgent finish.
