Atabey Black Ritos started off as the idea of Oliver Nivaud from United Cigar, later turned into a discussion with Nelson Alfonso, and pushed over the line by Nelson Alfonso, Jr., the very first NFT cigar was born.
On April 1, 2021, Atabey Black Ritos came to life as a digital asset, a cigar that didn’t exist in physical form (to our knowledge) but as a non-fungible token (NFT).
On the Eve of Thanksgiving, November 22, 2023, what was not physical became real. The Atabey Black Ritos cigar just as the NFT states measures 6 1/8 x 55 and showcasing a dark Ecuador wrapper. The look of the cigar was simply gorgeous, seamless, and luxurious. Atabey always has a beautiful appearance but with this darker wrapper in contrast, the gold and silver on the band pops even more.
An easy cold draw proves the craftsmanship of the construction and the flavors of well-aged tobacco. This cigar, just like all Atabey cigars, is released after the finished cigar rests for 5 full years. That means this cigar was finished in 2018, which means it was made 2 years before the NFT was announced. Yes, this project has been in the works for over 5 years. Spice tingles on my lips and crisp clean tobacco flavor on my tongue.
After lighting Atabey Black Ritos I immediately notice the aromatic quality of this cigar, as my tastebuds dance the aroma busts with flavor. Ginger, cinnamon, and licorice jump out front.
Second third of Atabey Black Ritos makes some subtle changes. Hints of black pepper and a sweet caramel finish, and the familiar note of the five cedars and French oak found in the Alfonso line also in the Selected Tobacco portfolio. Again, the aromatic quality of this cigar is outstanding. The final third brings to notice the perfect burn throughout, white ash and the benefits of the post rolled aging. I smoked this cigar until I couldn’t hold it any longer, it was that great.
