Description
La Gloria Cubana Maduro remains one of the world’s greatest Maduros. To begin with, La Gloria Cubana is a premium cigar brand originating in Cuba in 1885. The brand has a rich history and is still known for its craftsmanship and memorable smoking experiences. The founding family of Ernest Perez-Carrillo fled to the United States and began to produce the first non-Cuban La Gloria Cubana blend in Miami at the El Credito cigar factory. Now owned by General Cigar, La Gloria Cubana offers a variety of blends, each with its own distinctive flavor profile and construction. These medium to full bodied cigars are wonderfully complex and continue to be enjoyed by countless smokers.
With attention to detail, this LGC Maduro stays true to its Natural original inner blend. The big difference here is the dark and oily Grade A Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. As with its Natural counterpart, consistency also describes this very special Maduro. The result is craftsmanship delivering rich, smooth flavor and incredible natural tobacco taste. It’s safe to say that this Maduro is still the benchmark for the mark.
In 1993 Cigar Aficionado rated this gem a respectable 90. Their description is short and to the point. “A very dark, oily wrapper. This cigar has a rich, creamy taste that is brimming with sweet, spicy flavors.” In 1996 it scored the same. And pretty much the same year after year after year. It’s very safe to say this Maduro delivers a rich flavor savoring smokers palates for generations remaining a fan favorite to this day.
To sum up, La Gloria Cubana Maduro comes in 8 popular sizes of 25 count boxes

This cigar which is still being made in Cuba is the masterpiece created when the founding family fled to the United States. Without access to Cuban tobacco the family developed a signature blend that many feel exceeds the Cuban original. With a size for every smoker this medium to full bodied cigar has been enjoyed for decades by countless smokers.
Yes it’s an old one but a superlative and consistent smoke. This maduro blend has just a bit more kick than its natural sister.
