A broad 60 ring gauge in a compact 4 3/4 inch Short Gordo format distinguishes the Joya de Nicaragua Rosalones Autenticos 460, a Medium strength Nicaraguan puro with a Habano Criollo wrapper.
The wrapper, binder and filler all come from Nicaragua, so the blend carries the character of a single country. Joya de Nicaragua rates the strength 3 out of 5, placing it in the middle of the range. The maker describes the blend as a rich, medium bodied cigar that carries the authenticity of a Nicaraguan puro.
Earthy notes with a rich character define the profile, and the maker says those earthy flavours stay consistent throughout the smoke. It is a straightforward, tobacco forward blend, with no added sweetness or infusions. Rosalones is the maker’s original line, often described as the smaller brother of the Clásico.
The Joya de Nicaragua Rosalones Autenticos 460 pairs a 4 3/4 inch length with a 60 ring gauge, giving you a wide cigar in a shorter smoke. It suits smokers who like a thick, substantial format without committing to a longer vitola. It is the widest size in the Rosalones Auténticos lineup.

Bold and masculine looking cigar. I thought this was going to be a harsh and bitter smoke, but it suprised me. Sort of like a father who looks tough on the outside, but is supportive when your mother is not around. Lots of flavor. Cocoa, dark coffee with a touch of sugar and cream. Of course the earthiness of the tabacco. And for the price.

One of the best cigars for this low price. I love smoking Nicaraguan cigars. It’s very smooth, the ash holds up well, and is finely wrapped.
This is on my top 5, and “value wise” this is on my top 2, the other being Casa Magna Torito.

It began with a surprisingly strong, softened beautifully in the middle, and then built back up to a rich, powerful conclusion.

This is one of the best cigars at this price point and beyond.
Very well made with an easy draw and consistent burn.
The flavour is enjoyable from becoming to end.
No harsh bitterness.
