La Gloria Cubana Maduro Corona

La Gloria Cubana cigars are typically medium-bodied, but this beautiful maduro has an extra kick. It is this variety in intensity and flavor that characterizes this fine line. El Credito Cigars owner, Ernesto Perez-Carrillo, moved primary production from his Miami factory to the Dominican Republic in 1997. The move nearly quintupled their production capabilities and helped to keep up with their steadily swelling demand. La Gloria Cubanas provide an exquisitely varied blend of Brazilian, Dominica, Mexican and Nicaraguan long filler. With so many tobaccos, it's no surprise that this is a fairly dense cigar, encased in an oily smooth deep dark Ecuadorian wrapper. The result is a richer, spicier, fuller bodied version of the regular La Gloria Cubana line. Our panel loved this cigar, and you will too. Note the excellent construction-flawless. Expect tons flavor that is spicy yet very smooth, with notes of what could be described as a sweetened cedar. The draw is excellent for such a densely packed beauty, delivering strong tobacco aromas and flavors all the way down to the nub. This cigar gives a plentiful smoke volume and its full-bodied presence will leave you with a great earthy finish full of enduring spice, with a trace of sweetness. Full, rich, creamy and strong, La Gloria Cubana has scored as high as '91' in Cigar Aficionado blind taste tests. Great with Irish Coffee or a full-flavored whiskey.
