My Father La Gran Oferta Robusto

91 points, Cigar Aficionado

Born with cigar passion, José Pepin Garcia, My Father founder, became a legend. In 2003, his family dream transformed from a Miami factory to the sprawling My Father Cigars complex in Nicaragua, controlling every step of the tobacco journey. Alongside his son Jaime, their expertise crafted countless acclaimed cigars. My Father Cigars, famed for smooth complexity, now offer a taste of their legacy for both beginners and aficionados.

The series La Gran Oferta, which translate to “the great offer” features a blend made up of an Ecuadorian Habano Rosado wrapper, cloaking carefully selected Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos. The artwork adorning the boxes pays homage to a vintage cigar brand of the same name, originally launched in 1913 adding a touch of history to this masterpiece.

This dark Robusto, gleaming with an oily sheen, offers a spicy and earthy character. The initial puff delivers black pepper, followed by a nutty richness of almonds and chocolate. As you smoke, the flavours develop, culminating in a satisfying finish of salted caramel.
