La Gloria Cubana Serie R Black No. 48

An extension of Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr.'s Serie R — the line that helped kick off the modern trend toward fuller-bodied cigars and helped establish La Gloria Cubana as one of the first 'boutique' brands when Cigar Aficionado launched in 1993. Black wraps an audacious Jalapa ligero wrapper around Jalapa/Esteli Nicaraguan filler — pepper, earth, coffee, cedar, cream, and honey in a full-bodied puro.
