La Galera Connecticut Corona Gorda Pegador - 20 Cigars

Rating: 90 by Cigar Aficionado After solidifying his reputation as Tobacco Champion by supplying amazing leaves for top-rated Aging Room and La Flor Dominicana blends (among others), fourth generation Dominican tobacco grower Jochy Blanco has struck out on his own with the prestigious La Galera cigar line.Crafted to offer more character than your typical Connecticut-wrapped smoke, the La Galera Connecticut wraps a silky Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper around a Dominican Piloto Cubano binder and three different varieties of Dominican long-fillers from the fertile Cibao Valley.Mellow to medium in body, the La Galera Connecticut offers up rich taste with notes of roasted nuts, cocoa, Cuban coffee, and floral tones that make it really stand out from the pack. Despite this lively profile, its delivery is ultra-smooth, showcasing the superior blending skills of Mr. Blanco and the team at La Galera.
