Named after Brazil’s iconic Maracanã Stadium, Maracanã from OZ Family Cigars is Tim Ozgener’s homage to the world’s most popular sport. Crafted by My Father Cigars in Honduras, the blend showcases a rich Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper surrounding a dual binder of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos. The filler combines select leaves from Honduras and Nicaragua, including tobacco grown in the Talanga Valley and on the Garcia family’s renowned farms. As a regular-production offering, Maracanã also reflects a return to the Brazilian-inspired blending style that helped define Ozgener’s earlier creations.
Medium to full in body, Maracanã presents a balanced and nuanced smoking experience. Layers of leather, oak, cocoa, and spice unfold throughout the profile, accented by a restrained caramel-like sweetness that adds depth without overpowering the blend. Backed by the Garcia family’s well-known craftsmanship, the cigar burns evenly and performs consistently from first light to final draw, making it equally suited for enjoying during a match or as the centerpiece of a long, leisurely smoke.
