There was a time, not too long ago, when oversized cigars were gags—the kind of gift you'd present to a retiring colleague for a laugh. But the landscape of premium cigars underwent a seismic shift—not just in flavor, but in size—during the Cigar Boom, largely thanks to the innovative spirit of Ernesto Perez-Carrillo. His pioneering work in crafting larger format premiums transformed these once-novelty items into sought-after smokes. Though Perez-Carrillo has since moved on from the company he built, his legacy lives on in La Gloria Cubana Gran Legado.
This behemoth of a cigar boasts an impressive 8" x 63 vitola, positioning it among the most substantial offerings in today's market. But make no mistake—this is no mere showpiece. And for fans with an appetite for flavor as big as their cigars, Gran Legado offers a veritable feast for the senses. The blend opens with rich, earthy notes that form the backbone of the cigar's flavor profile. As the smoke progresses, you'll detect the unmistakable richness of freshly brewed coffee, intertwining with peppery undertones, sweet raisins, and a medley of spices that tickle the palate. All told, expect two hours plus of smoking time for an epic cigar session.
If you're in the market for a blend that offers both generous proportions, a lip-smacking mix of flavors, and a discounted price, then add your box of La Gloria Cubana Gran Legado to your cart now!
