This iconic brand which is available to us is still being made in Cuba. When the founding family fled to the United States without access to Cuban tobacco they developed a signature blend that many feel exceeds the Cuban original.Now owned by General Cigar, over the years, the La Gloria Cubana portfolio of size and style offerings has greatly expanded. These medium to full bodied cigars are wonderfully complex and have been enjoyed by countless smokers.
There’s alot going on with this cigar. First off, “Spanish Press” is an old world pre-embargo technique for shaping the cigars without the aid of molds which are used today. In the past, specially selected boxes that are designed to apply equal pressure to all sides were carefully filled by very carefully inserting the cigars by hand allowing an extended time to pass for completion. The result is an extraordinary draw and a very slow and cool burning stick. The four country blend of this medium to full bodied edition yields notes of spices, cedar wood and buttered toast with an elevated level of flavor. This characteristic is due in part to the wrapper’s toothy complexion. By this I mean the outer leaf has what appears to be small bumps across the surface that actually contain heightened amounts of tobacco oil. As you move this cigar along its strength and intensity increase as these little flavor pockets are released . This is one of my favorite La Glorias. Enjoy, BIG TIME!
