CAIN BRAND HISTORY

Cain Cigars is a brand manufactured and distributed by the Oliva Cigar Company in Estelí, Nicaragua. Following the successful launch of the Nub Cigars franchise, Oliva developed the Cain brand in 2009 to capture fans of more full-bodied cigars. The original Cain release was blended exclusively with Nicaraguan Ligero tobaccos, known for furnishing a particularly potent profile. To offset the potential harshness of an all-Ligero blend (branded as Straight Ligero), the tobaccos receive a triple fermentation, which lasts anywhere from several weeks to several months. Shortly after the debut of Cain, the company recognized the marketability of its younger brands and continued to develop both Cain and Nub under Studio Tobac, a division within Oliva comprised of a handful of the organization’s longest-tenured employees and brand affiliates. The members of Studio Tobac interact with consumers and receive feedback while developing new products.

CAIN BRAND OVERVIEW

Today Cain offers a well-defined portfolio of blends drawn with a distinctive variety of wrappers. Cain Habano has been a hit with fans of full-bodied cigars from day one. A boisterous recipe of Nicaraguan Ligero long-fillers is matured for maximum smoothness before it’s finished in an oily Cuban-seed wrapper.

Cain Daytona mirrors the “Straight Ligero” formula of the original Cain Habano. However, Daytona only utilizes Ligero tobaccos from the Jalapa region in Nicaragua, which yields a more approachable leaf. Cain Daytona delivers plenty of strength and spice but is known for being more refined and slightly less intense. Medium-bodied notes of pepper, cedar, and leather layer the palate with creamy texture. 

Cain Maduro develops with a succulent sweetness in conjunction with deep, zesty spices thanks to its chewy Maduro wrapper leaf. This jet-black Nicaraguan Maduro shimmers with an oily complexion. 

Cain F consists of an extra-hearty blend of Nicaraguan Ligero tobaccos grown exclusively in Estelí, a region noted for noted its potent crops. The “F” in Cain F stands for “Forced Refined,” as the cigar was designed to push the limits of strength without becoming overbearing. Cain F earned a 92-point rating from Cigar Aficionado for its tenacious but balanced taste. 

Cain Nub combines the peppery intensity of Cain cigars in the short, fat, and wildly popular shape of Nub. Each of the core Cain blends is available in chunky 4-by-60 Cain Nub line. If you enjoy Nub cigars but crave more oomph, Cain Nub is the answer. 

Cain Connecticut CT flips the script with a creamy and milder blend. A seamless Ecuador Connecticut wrapper hosts an approachable recipe of premium Nicaraguan long-fillers. Nutty notes of white pepper and cedar bathe the taste buds before a woody coffee bean finish sets in.

The latest edition, Cain Black, is drawn from an oily Cuban-seed wrapper cultivated in Nicaragua over a standard recipe of Nicaraguan Ligero long-fillers. Hearty and toasty notes of leather and black pepper display enough sweetness to ease the power this otherwise spicy smoke possesses.
