From the link in post #1:
----------------

At first glance, you will notice the Cabinetta Serie features two wrappers, a top-grade Equadorian Shade which
covers its entire length with the head then finished in a second cover leaf of rich, Nicaraguan Criollo
. Aptly named
by the factory as “Dos Capas”, this technique allows the smoke itself to be creamy and smooth, yet provide a
spicy flavor for the consumer without making the smoke itself to strong. “Unlike the common, double-wrapped
‘barber pole’ cigars, which is primarily for appearance sake, this Dos Capas-style actually offers the cigar smoker
a different and unique flavor and aroma,” states Dr. Alejandro Martinez Cuenca, JdN’s owner and master blender.

The criollo wrapper is dark enough that it could be graded as a maduro though.
