Handmade in the lush landscapes of Costa Rica as a tribute to generations of Cuban tobacco mastery, this cigar is a product of meticulous artistry. The blend, a thoughtful composition of Peruvian and Dominican Republic fillers, interacts artfully with a Peruvian binder, creating a tapestry of flavors that echo a rich family legacy. Highlighting the essential facts behind its bolder character, each cigar undergoes an extended aging process of a minimum of five years in carefully curated multi-cedar rooms. This unique environment, elevated by the influence of French oak, imparts an elegant depth, ensuring that the Alfonso Gran Selección Preciosos Cigar delivers profound structure in every draw.
