La Gloria Cubana Serie R Natural No. 5 Cigars
When the big ring gauge fad first began, Ernesto Perez-Carrillo was the first one to really bring out the "big guns," so to speak, when he introduced La Gloria Cubana Serie R Natural No. 5 cigars. A pioneering masterpiece, the entire lineup of Serie R consists of big ring gauge cigars packing some serious punch while still maintaining the classic La Gloria Cubana quality standards. Made with skilled hands in the Dominican Republic, this 5 ½" x 54 Serie R stick consists of a heavy mix of Dominican and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos, containing a considerable amount of power-packing ligero tobacco, and a spicy Nicaraguan binder. The finishing touch is a veiny, heavily aged Ecuadoran Sumatra leaf that is grown especially for this cigar.
The white smoke slathers the palate with intense pepper and sweet hints of honey and black cherry. Roasted coffee notes round out the earthy profile and the finish, while quite intense, is very short. It's safe to say that Serie R is a La Gloria Cubana on steroids. La Gloria Cubana Serie R Natural No. 5 is definitely a full-bodied stick, suitable for experienced intermediate smokers and beyond. It pairs wonderfully with port wine or heavy beer and makes for a wonderful, relaxing smoke before bed. Behind it lays the same legacy that carries the La Gloria Cubana brand and the reassurance that each and every cigar is scrutinized to have the utmost quality. Similar cigars include MUWAT and Joya de Nicaragua Antano. Big flavors, big cigars—that's La Gloria Cubana Serie R Natural No. 5.
