LA GALERA 

On a warm and sunny day in Tamboril, considered to many as the cigar capital of the world, lying in the outskirts of Santiago, Dominican Republic, lies Jose Arnaldo Blanco, known to all as “Jochy”, puffing calmly on cigar. A man who has worked with tobacco for as long as he can recall and his unconditional love and passion for it is obvious to all.

Through hard work and determination, he’s grown and processed tobacco to perfection throughout his tenure as a manufacturer and grower for the last few decades, and his factory Tabacalera Palma has been the home for outstanding cigars that have gained the love and appreciation of smokers all over the world.

CUBANO

An authentic Dominican cigar elaborated with the hands of the best rollers of Tabacalera Palma. Blended around an outstandingly flavourful Ecuadorian wrapper, the Dominican grown Corojo binder and filler made up of Piloto Cubano, Criollo 98, and Pelo de Oro, create medium-to-full, attractively consistent and aromatic smoke that envies no other.

Tasting Notes

87 / 100 

"This robusto has a tight, firm draw but imparts an earthy smoke with hints of leather and brown sugar. A musty note on the finish hurt the score."

Quite an intense and rather one-dimensional leathery taste initially, but as the cigar developed it became more earthy, smokey and woody with a nice aftertaste, before the leather flavour returned near the stub after an hour plus smoke. It got a bit hot towards the end although for the most part the cigar burned evenly and the draw was good. Overall an easy and relaxing afternoon smoke with a cup of coffee. Medium strength with a reasonable hit of nicotine.

You never know with a new order, so this was trading on reputation. However it is a winner, with a steady smoke, lasting almost an hour if smoked in a relaxing manner (is here any other?). Plenty of taste, well behaved and even-burning - keep it from getting too hot by being gentle, and the return is fragrant smoke, a gentle pull and a burn until your fingers are threatened. To get right down to a tiny butt is a compliment to structure and design. Take care when snipping to start - just the end bit. Packing is quite tight, but snip too much and the wrapper is at risk of unravelling. This is quite the best value and most relaxingly enjoyable smoke Ive had from Turmeaux. Its worth sitting the entire smoke to enjoy this consistent and well made product. Splendid.

I was given a box of these as a present, I’ve aged them for about 9months given a few away, smoked 7/8 now, and for me they are a mild to medium body cigar with medium strength, first light started out with a peppery wood taste, 10mins in, it dropped all the peppery zest and had a smooth slightly creamy Finnish, the flavours are a bread and soft wood taste with a leathery and honey notes on the retrohale, a long Finnish with the flavours lasting till the next draw, a firm dense even packed cigar, which burned slow and evenly, well made, I usually go for a more full bodied sweet dark maduro cigar, but these make a really nice change, a smooth good for mid morning/ breakfast, definitely worth a try.
