RoMa Craft Tobac, led by Skip Martin, is a small-batch craft cigar maker producing bold, full-flavored blends at its Nica Sueno factory in Esteli, Nicaragua. Its acclaimed CroMagnon, Aquitaine, Intemperance, Neanderthal, and Baka lines have earned a devoted following among experienced smokers. Intemperance arrived in 2012 as the company's first release, its branding evoking the temperance movement and Prohibition; BA XXI refers to the 21st Amendment and to the Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper that defines the blend, and the Avarice was one of the four original vitolas. Because RoMa Craft has struggled to source Arapiraca leaf that meets its standards the line ships only intermittently, returning to shelves in November 2025 in six vitolas including the Avarice.
A dark Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper over an Indonesian besuki binder and long-filler tobaccos from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic, built in the Avarice (Short Robusto) format at 4 1/2 x 52. Hand-rolled as a long-filler cigar at Fabrica de Tabacos Nica Sueno in Esteli, Nicaragua and blended by Skip Martin. The Arapiraca wrapper is left short of the foot, exposing about an eighth of an inch of binder for a slightly shaggy appearance. Box count: 24 cigars.
Medium to full-bodied — cocoa, coffee, black pepper, cedar, and earth from the Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper, with a smooth, even finish.
Alcoholic: a bold bourbon or an aged rum. Non-Alcoholic: a dark-roast coffee.
A rewarding after-dinner smoke. Allow 60 minutes.
