RoMa Craft Neanderthal SGP 5 x 52

The RoMa Craft Neanderthal SGP 5 x 52 is a full-bodied Nicaraguan cigar featuring a Mexican San Andrés wrapper and rare Pennsylvania Double Ligero tobacco, delivering powerful notes of espresso, dark chocolate, earth, and black pepper.

Produced by RoMa Craft Tobac — founded by Skip Martin and Mike Rosales and based in Austin — the Neanderthal line is one of the most respected high-strength boutique cigar blends in the industry.

What makes the Neanderthal SGP unique?

The SGP uses RoMa Craft’s signature Neanderthal blend built around Pennsylvania Double Ligero, a rare and extremely strong tobacco that adds intensity, density, and deep complexity.
