La Gloria Cubana Spanish Press is definitely one of this company’s most unique entries.
This edition’s blend uses a Nicaraguan Jalapa wrapper encasing a Mexican San Andrés binder. The exquisite fillers include Brazilian mata fina, Dominican olor and piloto cubano along with Nicaraguan Jalapa . It’s important to note the Spanish Press method of producing cigars is a very old world pre-embargo technique using boxes instead of molds. The result is a spectacular medium bodied box pressed cigar with a great draw from start to finish.
Noted Reviewer KATMAN quickly rates this unique cigar a score 0f 90 claiming….. “I am truly amazed at how good this cigar is.” Blind Man’s Puff simply says that LGC Spanish press is “ A Magnificent Cigar” They up it to a 92. Cigar Coop agrees with the same 92 and aptly describes this LGC as a flavor bomb. Think Natural Tobacco, Red Licorice, Pepper, Baker’s Spice, Earth for starters.

La Gloria Cubana Esteli is one of the greatest cigars available anywhere for under $5.
This blend consists of very select Nicaraguan and Honduran tobacco fillers and binder leaves. Encasing all this is a prime Nicaraguan wrapper from the Jalapa region. The result was an immediate success.
The critics at Halfwheel describe it as a flavor bomb. Think pizza dough, almonds, sweet apple and pita bread fro starters! Leaf Enthusiast rates it at 90. They’re words are perfect. “A very nice medium-bodied flavor profile that has plenty of complexity.” Developing Palates expands with more details. ‘You’re treated to earth, leather, toasted notes, spices, creme brûlée, chocolate and baking spices.” But when Blind Man’s Puff scored it an astounding 93, it really took off. Their take was the best. “This is really a nice cigar. The initial mild flavors attracted my interest and the gradual increase in intensity was perfect to end my day.”
No doubt this super high quality affordable smoke should be in your humidor.

La Flor Dominicana 1994 20th Anniversary celebrates this company’s two decades of making some of the world’s finest cigars.
Cigar Authority gave it an astounding 94 rating.

Around the half way point the molasses slides into the background as some dark chocolate emerges and becomes the dominant profile.”

What we can say for sure is the medium to full bodied 1994 Anniversary was a winner when it came out and still reigns today as one of this company’s best cigars.
