Fans of Jose “Jochy” Blanco and his La Galera cigars are going to love this sampler. It is like a greatest hits album. If you haven’t had the pleasure of smoking one of Blanco’s creations, then consider this sampler your starter kit. Either way, this exclusive 10-cigar sampler is your ticket to some of the finest cigars made by this globally recognized cigar crafter. Each sampler comes with the following:
• Two (2) each La Galera Connecticut El Lector (6" * 54) – a mild to medium-bodied cigar featuring a gorgeous golden brown Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper.
• Two (2) each La Galera 1936 Box Pressed El Lector (6" * 54) – a medium to full-bodied box-pressed cigar featuring a striking dark brown Ecuadorian Habano wrapper.
• One (1) each La Galera Imperial Jade (6" * 52) – it sports a hard-to-get African-grown Cameroon wrapper, which is valued for its smoothness, beauty, and flavor.
• One (1) each La Galera Anemoi (6"3/8 * 52) – a medium to full-bodied cigar that features a reddish, oily USA Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper.
• Two (2) each La Galera Maduro El Lector (6" * 54) – a full-bodied treat featuring a chocolate brown Mexican San Andres wrapper. This cigar will leave you enamored with its bold sweetness and rich finish.
• Two (2) each La Galera Habano El Lector (6" * 54) – its coppery Ecuadorian Habano wrapper will impress you all the way to the very last puff.
All ten cigars are tucked in a beautifully designed box, which depicts a painting that hangs in Jochy’s office. The painting is an homage to the Lector, whose job was to read the newspaper or a novel to the rollers and bunchers who worked in the cigar factory’s gallery.
