Black Beauty Badge

Black Beauty ain't just for majestic horses anymore!

That's right, we're referring to the luscious, untamed tendencies of Mata Fina tobacco. This leaf is famously grown in the Bahia region of Brazil. The name means thin forest, being notably different than the country's Amazon rainforest. This stalk-cut tobacco is unquestionably maduro in shade, surprisingly thin in texture, and is known for raw flavor characteristics of sweet earth, vegetation, mineral, and espresso.

Not the most ubiquitous wrapper on the market, you'll have to be a little more dedicated to this black beauty in order to rise through the ranks of this badge.
