Tobacco Composition: A Nicaraguan Habano Blend
The Mean Jean combines a Habano 2000 wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos. According to the manufacturer, the blend uses binder tobacco from Ometepe and filler from Estelí and Jalapa, with ligero tobacco from Ometepe contributing to its bolder character.
This combination gives the cigar a distinctive place within the Habano line. Its box-pressed construction and blend variation are intended to deliver a more assertive experience than the other sizes in the line.
Box-Pressed Toro Format
Measuring 6 inches long with a 52 ring gauge, The Mean Jean uses a box-pressed Toro format. Its squared profile distinguishes it from a traditionally rounded Toro and gives the cigar a recognizable shape.
The 6 x 52 size offers room for the blend’s flavor profile to develop throughout the smoking session. Smoking time varies with individual pace and conditions.
