The StarDust was crafted at the same time as the company’s highest rated Time Traveler cigar and used similar tobaccos and seasons of aging.
Isabela Cigars Notes:
“With the Time-Travelers we strived to create and were able to master a cigar that took you on a journey back in time, revealing flavors reminiscent of the most popular Cuban cigars in the 1990’s. This cigar yielded eight disticnt seamless transitions. “
With the StarDust in the corona format we found those transitions to be succinct, yet more of an ebb and flow throough the smoking experience.”
The Isabela StarDust is a very limited production with a total of 100 boxes of 25. It should be noted that they were aged an extra year before packaging. the company has selected exclusive retailers to carry these cigars and will offer six-packs on a very limited basis, for direct purchase on their website www.isabelacigarcompany.com.

The company states their goal and drive as:
“..to create masterful, imaginative blends utilizing timeless traditions, multiple aging techniques of different tobaccos, as well as further utilization of varying degrees of primings to effectuate multiple transitions of ever changing profiles within each vitola.”
