LA GLORIA CUBANA TO RELEASE SECOND COLLABORATION WITH EL TITÁN DE BRONZE.
LA GLORIA CUBANA TO RELEASE SECOND COLLABORATION WITH EL TITÁN DE BRONZE.
La Gloria Cubana is set to release its second collaboration with the family-owned El Titán de Bronze Cigar Factory.
Created to honor La Gloria’s roots in Miami’s Little Havana district, the limited-edition Maduro release called “La Gloria Cubana Eighth Street” was developed in collaboration with Justin Andrews and blended by the team at El Titán de Bronze.
Justin Andrews said, “It was a true pleasure to work with Sandy Cobas and her team to blend a new expression of La Gloria Cubana Eighth Street. This cigar is proudly made in the USA and honors the Little Havana roots of this legendary brand. For this special project, we stayed true to a classic La Gloria profile and replicated a Cubanesque smoking experience by way of the cigar’s size. This is a rich and complex smoke that celebrates the resilience of the cigar making tradition and I’m proud to have been a part of blending it.”
Sandy Cobas, owner of El Titán de Bronze said, “As one of Calle Ocho’s biggest success stories, La Gloria Cubana is a brand my team and I have always admired. We were thrilled to have the chance to blend a second Eighth Street Cigar. It allows us in some small way to continue honoring the Cuban expatriate cigar rollers who practice their craft in Miami, most especially at El Titán de Bronze, and who are committed to keeping the traditions of the homeland alive.”
The full-bodied smoke is made with a blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos and a Nicaraguan binder that are enrobed in a rich, Ecuadorian Habano Oscuro wrapper. The cigar delivers a robust smoking experience, with notes of espresso, leather and spice.
La Gloria Cubana Eighth Street is crafted at the El Titan de Bronze factory on Calle Ocho (Eighth Street) in Miami’s Little Havana district. The cigars are presented in 10-count, wooden boxes and will ship to retailers in early September.
La Gloria Cubana Eighth Street Corona Grande (6.5” x 48); SRP per cigar $22.99
La Gloria Cubana is distributed by Forged Cigar Company.
