La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Natural
$91.99 – $108.99La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Natural is one of this company’s greatest values considering how amazing they are.
With attention to detail, Serie R Esteli uses tobacco growing in the mountains of Jalapa, Nicaragua. Dubbed Jalapa Sol. The wrapper of the cigar is Nicaraguan from Jalapa, while the binder is Honduran Jamastran and the fillers contain Jamastran and Honduran La Entrada. It’s important to note that the select ligero and viso leaves coming from multiple locations complete this complex blend. No doubt, the goal here is to create a gentler version of the famed Serie R Original. The results are as expected!
Noted reviewer KATMAN simply states this cigar is “ Rich and balanced with a lot of character” Cigar Dojo says, “The strength settles in at a very comfortable medium body” Leaf Enthusiast rates it a solid 90. Their description says it all. “I can say that I am very pleased with this latest iteration of the venerable La Gloria Cubana brand. It does present a very nice medium-bodied flavor profile that has plenty of complexity, with sweeter notes offsetting earthiness and coffee notes on a regular basis. One of the best “bargain-priced” cigars to hit the market in the last couple years.”
Together with its affordability, this LGC is another winner for all of us.

La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Maduro
$96.99 – $124.99La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Maduro is the dark cloaked edition to this brand’s Natural counterpart.
Serie R Esteli Maduro uses the same Nicaraguan forward blend as its Natural counterpart. The big difference here is the Grade A dark and oily Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper. This addition is pivotal in tempering its strength while allowing flavors to surface with a deep sweetness.
Leaf Enthusiast feels this is a worthwhile smoke. Their advice….”Definitely a good addition to the LGC lineup and a good choice for Maduro fans on a budget who want a big, long-lasting cigar.” Developing Palates says this Maduro is a cool and slow burning cigar. Along with its medium body, Halfwheel claims it has a bunch of flavor notes. Think leather, gritty earth, grass, coffee and hazelnuts. Cigar Aficionado think the 60 ring gauge offering is definitely worth a try. Their take….”A monstrous cigar that’s very solid. It smokes well, and has cherry notes and hints of toast and sweet wood. Medium to full bodied.”
Enjoy this high quality and affordable Maduro to the max!
