Description
Meet the heavyweight of the Puros Huerfanos family: this Gordo 6x60. Big, bold, and impossibly rich for a Connecticut, this cigar is in it with you for the long haul! The extra-large ring gauge lets the Ecuador-grown wrapper work its magic, softening the rough Nicaraguan edges of the core and providing a profile that evolves with every draw.
But seriously, we’re talking about a bundle cigar the same way we talk about the big-shot premiums that land in the magazines’ rating pages. What gives? “Orphan” cigars are premiums that, for one reason or another, were intended to be sold but for one reason or another, never got to their final stop. Which is a shame, because these handmades have greatness in the DNA: they’re from Drew Estate. What were they supposed to be? Doesn’t matter now – we’ve got ‘em, and we’ve got ‘em cheap.
From the very first puff, you’ll notice leather, espresso, and wood mingling with that signature Nicaraguan spice. A little sweetness, too. The smoke is thick, aromatic, and steady, with a burn that’s as reliable as it is impressive. Not bad for a bundle – but remember, these weren’t supposed to be bundles!
Despite its rocky road to your humidor, this cigar behaves like a first-class premium stick. Because it is! Full of character and distinct, delicious nuances, you’ll likely find yourself back for more Gordos before too long. Grab them now, while stock holds out – here at Famous Cigars!
