Royal Agio Cigars USA has announced that it has begun shipping the Balmoral Añejo XO Nicaragua, a five-size line made in the Dominican Republic that usses a Nicaraguan habano wrapper over a Cuban-seed Brazilian binder and three fillers: Dominican olor, tobacco from Estelí, Nicaragua and the brand’s signature stalk-cut Brazilian mata norte tobacco.

It is offered in five sizes.
