La Gloria Cubana will debut a new, full-time collection next month. Named “Serie S,” the line marks the first time a Mexican wrapper will be featured in a La Gloria blend.
Steve Abbot, director of marketing for La Gloria Cubana said,
“Serie S combines large-ring formats, expert blending and fine craftsmanship in a medium-to-full-bodied smoke. We believe this new collection will be a well-received addition to the brand portfolio.”
For Serie S, the La Gloria Cubana blending team selected a Mexican San Andrés wrapper which is grown in potassium-rich volcanic soil. Following a prolonged, low-temperature fermentation, the Serie S wrapper bears a warm, golden brown color that hints at the slightly sweet, earthy qualities it imparts on the smoking experience. With a Nicaraguan binder and blend of Nicaraguan and Dominican filler tobacco, La Gloria Cubana Serie S also delivers leather, light spice and a pleasant aroma.
La Gloria Cubana Serie S is handcrafted at the El Credito Cigar Factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic.
The company noted that these will be shipping in mid-July and will debut with three sizes, packed in bold black cabinet-style boxes that each house 24 cigars.
- Robusto Gordo (5.5” x 56); MSRP per cigar $7.99
- Gigante (6 “ x 60); MSRP per cigar $8.49
- Presidente (7” x 56); MSRP per cigar $8.99
La Gloria Cubana is distributed by Forged Cigar Company.
