Description
La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Natural is one of this company’s greatest values considering how amazing they are. To begin with, La Gloria Cubana is a premium cigar brand originating in Cuba in 1885. No doubt, this brand has a rich history and is still known for its craftsmanship. 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.
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. 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 result 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 this latest iteration of the venerable La Gloria Cubana brand is very pleasing.” Together with its price, this LGC is another winner for all of us.
To sum up, La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Natural comes in three popular sizes of 18 count boxes

I’m a huge fan of this brand. I have not been a fan of their increasing prices. When this edition was launched in 2015, not only did I feel it was the best one I ever smoked, I was delighted at the affordable everyday price. Getting a 91 rating and being named one of the top 25 cigars of the year was a statement that I wasn’t alone. I feel this stick ranks as one of the greatest Cuban style, medium to full bodied cigars available on our whole site. If I could give it a sixth star, I would ! Enough said. Buckle up!
