Some news from Forged Cigar Co., which is taking some getting used to. I’m so accustomed to typing General Cigar Co. I have to get used to making the distinction. Of course, when something new comes out from LA Gloria Cubana it catches my eye, having been a fan of the brand since I started smoking cigars in the mid-90s. This sounds like an interesting blend, I’ll be interested in smoking it.
La Gloria Cubana Presents Spirit of the Lady
Limited Edition Release Celebrates the Artisans of the Original Boutique Brand
La Gloria Cubana, the original boutique brand, has created a special five-country blend that celebrates the masterful artisans of the El Credito Cigar Factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic.
Called “Spirit of the Lady,” the limited edition collection will be available exclusively at U.S. cigar shops beginning on March 2 and includes two box-pressed vitolas made from the finest aged tobaccos.
La Gloria Cubana and its Spirit of the Lady collection are distributed by The Forged Cigar Company.
Steve Abbot, senior brand manager for La Gloria Cubana said, “The artisans of El Credito are passionately committed to their craft, and it shows in every single cigar they make. Through their unwavering commitment to cr
eating exquisite cigars, this dedicated team embodies the assured spirit of Lady La Gloria, the brand’s iconic marque. It is truly a pleasure to celebrate these talented men and women, and to honor their artistry through this special offering.”
Featuring hand-selected tobaccos from around the world, the El Credito blending team has selected a dark and lustrous, seven-year-aged wrapper from the Olancho San Agustín region of Honduras. It envelopes a Cameroon binder and dimensional blend of Mexican, Nicaraguan, and Dominican tobaccos. The result is an elegant, medium-to-full-bodied smoking experience with notes of cocoa, dark fruit, cedar, toast and a hint of cinnamon.
Spirit of the Lady will be available in two classic sizes and just 600 boxes of each size will be released.
Spirit of the Lady Toro (6” x 50); SRP per cigar $12.99
Spirit of the Lady Churchill (7” x 50); SRP per cigar $14.99
