Visually, the NN01 features a light brown wrapper that is silky smooth to the touch and has just a touch of oil. In addition, there are quite a few obvert veins running up and down its length and the cigar is nicely firm when squeezed. Aroma form the wrapper is surprisingly faint and includes generic wood, leather and earth while the foot brings notes of cinnamon, creamy cedar, cocoa nibs and very slight mint. After cutting the cap with a straight cutter, the cold draw brings flavors of hay, espresso beans, cedar, earth and a touch of floral.

German Engineered Cigars Ships NN01
After a delay of several months, the NN01 from German Engineered Cigars is on its way to store shelves.
The cigar’s name is an abbreviation for the Latin phrase
non nominandum, which translates as either not named or to be named. Without a name, and with no blend details being disclosed, the company is hoping to create a cigar that encourages consumers to focus on the tobacco and blend rather than distracting packaging or some sort of backstory.
The first cigar in the NN series, the NN01, is a 7 x 48 Churchill that is produced at Tabacalera William Ventura in the Dominican Republic. German Engineered Cigars, the company behind the RVGN Rauchvergnügen line, only describes it as being a medium-bodied profile. It is priced at $8.90 per cigar and limited to 200 boxes of 25 cigars, with distribution limited to U.S. retailers.
