La Galera Anemoi Boreas Corona Extra Cigar – Single

The La Galera Anemoi Boreas Corona Extra Cigar draws inspiration from Greek wind deities, specifically Boreas, the north wind god. Developed by José “Jochy” Blanco at Tabacalera Palma, this cigar utilizes Dominican tobaccos cultivated in La Canela and Jacagua. The blend combines Criollo 98 and Piloto Cubano fillers from La Canela with a Corojo binder from Blanco’s Jacagua farm, wrapped in aged Ecuadorian Habano leaf.

Construction features a 6" x 46 corona gorda format with a quadruple cap. The dark, oily wrapper contributes to a medium-to-full bodied profile. Primary combustion characteristics include a 75-minute burn time and consistent ash formation. Flavor progression begins with roasted nut and coffee bean notes, transitioning to oak and black pepper accents in the final third.

• Wrapper: Ecuadorian Habano (aged multiple years)
• Binder: Dominican Corojo
• Filler: Dominican Criollo 98 + Piloto Cubano

Blanco’s cultivation methods in Cibao Valley prioritize wind-resistant tobacco strains. The Anemoi series includes four wind-inspired vitolas, with Boreas representing northern growing conditions. Production occurs at Tabacalera Palma’s Santiago facility using traditional entubado bunching techniques.
