My Father Le Bijou 100 Anos Limited Edition Corona Especial Cigar – Single

The My Father Le Bijou 100 Anos Limited Edition Corona Especial Cigar commemorates the 100th birthday of José Garcia Alayón, patriarch of the García family. This Nicaraguan puro features a modified blend of the Le Bijou 1922 series, using tobaccos exclusively sourced from the García family’s San Rafael, Las Quebradas, and San José farms. A specialized fermentation process enhances the tobacco’s aromatic qualities to achieve the intended flavor profile.

Construction and Blend

Measuring 6.5 inches with a 44-ring gauge, the Corona Especial utilizes an Ecuadorian Habano Oscuro wrapper noted for its dark, oily texture. The binder and filler consist of aged Nicaraguan tobaccos, including a Nicaraguan binder and long-filler leaves selected for full-bodied balance. The wrapper emits earthy aromas preceding combustion.

Flavor Characteristics

Initial draws reveal dominant notes of dark chocolate and espresso, accompanied by black pepper undertones. Mid-profile transitions introduce leather and toasted almond flavors, with subtle sweetness emerging in the final third. Cedar and earthy tones persist throughout, while the retrohale accentuates cocoa and spice nuances.
