What better to smoke during Halloween week than a cigar in a casket. This was $17.00 at the smoke shop, but I have had just as good cigars for $12.00. Price does not always matter with cigars however as far as taste. Look at how successful the Casa Magna is. This one was a little sweet, maybe some peppery flavor. It was a good smoke, but not my goto cigar in the Micallef line.
Stuff from Cigars International:
The Gomez Sanchez name in cigars is one you may not know, but they’ve been in the game for quite some time. Back in 1934 in Havana, Cuba, Don Pedro Gomez began his family’s legacy in the premium cigar game… today, their name lives on through his grandsons, Edel and Joel. But as anyone who’s been around cigars long enough can tell you, the past matters, and with the Gomez Sanchez Leyenda, Micallef cigars honors their legacy.
Offered in tapered figurado vitolas, the Leyenda is a most impressive cigar to behold. And I’m not just talking about the unique coffin that holds each handmade. Underneath the three bands, you’ll find a five-year-aged Ecuadorian Habano wrapper leaf that’s rustic in all the right ways. This is joined by a Nicaraguan binder and a tri-country blend of Nicaraguan, Dominican, and Honduran long-fillers, all aged 5 years pre-roll as well. Toasting the foot, you’ll find a classic Cuban profile, featuring a nice strength, rounded out by naturally sweet tobacco notes, black pepper, and a roasted nuttiness.
