La Galera Imperial Jade Mayor Perfecto wraps a rare, African grown Cameroon leaf around a Dominican blend in a tapered perfecto shape. That Cameroon wrapper is the heart of this cigar. It is prized for its silky texture and warm brown colour, and it is harder to source than most wrapper leaves.
Master blender Jochy Blanco handmade this cigar at Tabacalera Palma in the Dominican Republic. Under the wrapper sits a Dominican Criollo binder and a filler of Dominican Piloto Cubano and Criollo 98. The blend is rated medium in strength. The profile is creamy and spicy, with sweet, earthy tones, a hint of oatmeal and a touch of pepper. A peppery retro-hale adds a lively finish.
The perfecto shape measures 4 3/4 x 48/53. It narrows at both ends and swells in the middle. That design shapes how the cigar draws and burns. The tapered foot opens the flavours gradually, and the fuller belly lets the blend develop through the middle of the smoke. This compact vitola suits an afternoon break or an evening smoke when you want a full flavour in a shorter format.
For smokers who enjoy Cameroon wrapped cigars, or who want to try a figurado with a smooth, balanced medium body, the Mayor Perfecto is a refined way to experience the Imperial Jade blend.
