La Duena #13 Toro Gordo 6 x 56
For many years Janny Garcia has worked side by side with her father Don Pepin Garcia and her brother Jaime Garcia in building the family company. After honoring Don Pepin with the My Father Cigar and Jaime with the Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial, the time has come for La Duena (meaning female owner) to receive her own tribute. This cigar, blended by Jaime Garcia and Pete Johnson of Tatuaje Cigars, is the perfect representation of Janny. La Duena has a binder and filler encompassing Connecticut Broadleaf and Nicaraguan tobacco (100% from the Garcias farm in Esteli), and the wrapper is a Connecticut Broadleaf. It is a Medium to Full Body cigar and will be available in 5 sizes in boxes of 21 and just one size is a Box-Pressed, packaged in box of 12, for a total of 6 sizes.
Wrapper: Connecticut Broadleaf
Filler: Connecticut Broadleaf and Nicaragua
Binder: Connecticut Broadleaf and Nicaragua
Another winner from My Father! Super flavorful and a bit less peppery than most MF/Pepin cigars, with some sweetness. Pete Johnson of Tatuaje helped with this blend- My Father and Tatuaje working together! I absolutely loved learning about this after I smoked one. Give this one a try!
An underrated and lesser known cigar. A hidden gem. Check it out though if you are in search of flavor packed in a good medium plus bodied package. Lots of nuance to this want to examine. Else a great cigar to savor the smoke and experience.
