In the past few months, I have been exploring the various La Gloria Cubana lines. I heard from a couple people that they were releasing a new line. This news was exciting to me because I love trying new cigars. So when this cigar was released I got my hands on some. I put one away to review one morning because it was mild and would be a great morning cigar. So over this past weekend I figured it was a good day to smoke my last one.
The light brown wrapper is very nice and smooth. There were a couple veins, but they were all thin. The cigar is solid from cap to foot. The cap is also perfectly flush. There is a strong, sweet and earthy smell coming off of this stick. Upon looking the stick over, I noticed a slight crack in the wrapper by the foot, but I wasn’t too worried about it. The cigar cut very clean as well.
Upon lighting up this cigar, I got some strong earthy notes. There were also some little notes of wood and nut that formed. Shortly after the wood and nut flavors, came a mild spice. About an inch into this cigar, the nuttiness picked up a great deal and a sweetness like honey formed. The honey nut flavor was great and coated my mouth perfectly.
