Espinosa Cigars Hialeah Gardens Limited Edition Aged 4+ Years: If you watch our YouTube channel, you already know about Erik Espinosa. A tough, stout, Cuban from the streets. He built a multi-million dollar company out of absolutely nothing except passion and hard work. The American dream. The first time I went to visit Espinosa was the first time I was ever in Hialeah Gardens. Almost all of my cigar shipments come from this area of Hialeah Gardens, Hialeah, and Doral. This is an area outside of downtown Miami that is 100% Cuban. It is like being transported to a different country in South America or the Caribbean.
Espinosa Cigars Hialeah Gardens Limited Edition Aged 4+ Years: I started to think about how every cigar typically has the city name of Havana and Cuba. Then I started to think about the reality of it all. The cigars we smoke pass through this area more than anywhere else in the world. And I thought to myself, why the hell doesn’t anyone call their cigar the Hialeah? So I asked Erik and he said why the hell would anyone do that? To which I answered, Because it’s the truth. As much as we like to glamorize the old world and tradition, the truth becomes tradition. And the truth is that since about 2001 and beyond, Hialeah and Hialeah gardens have become THE cigar epicenter. Enjoy one of the better cigars you may have all year. Espinosa put everything he had into this blend. There are some cigars that just get all the love, and this is one of those. #weareprivada

Okay, so I ordered a pack of these based on the pedigree of its origins. Bloody fantastic cigar. I have only recently begun smoking new worlds. Liking the usual suspects. Pardon, Davidoff, Don Carlos. This stick sits among the fore mentioned. Certainly going to begin ordering these for a weekly. Highly suggest to anyone that enjoys the Cubanesque.

Back again. They came up as back in stock so I’veorderedagain and am enjoying one at this time. This stick starts off with a bit of a kick but not sharp at all, but rather intense flavour for the first ten minutes, then tappers back a bit to a solid medium smoke until I numbed it out.
A solid 93 for me.
