My Father Flor de las Antillas Maduro Corona

My Father Flor de las Antillas Maduro Corona is a box pressed 5 5/8 x 46 cigar that adds a maduro wrapper to the Garcia family’s award winning Flor de las Antillas blend. The original blend was named Cigar of the Year in 2012 by Cigar Aficionado, with a rating of 96. This version delivers more body and a sweeter finish than the original. The name, “Flower of the Antilles,” nods to the Garcia family’s Cuban roots.

The cigar is handmade in Estelí, Nicaragua. A sun grown Ecuadorian Habano Maduro wrapper covers a Nicaraguan binder and Nicaraguan long fillers from Garcia family farms. The strength is medium to full. Expect roasted nuts, dried fruit, cocoa, espresso and cedar, with leather, white pepper and the signature My Father spice. JR Cigar adds almonds and earth.

The Corona is the classic size of the line, with a gentle box press and an easy hold. Reviewers praise the balanced smoke, the easy draw and a clean white ash. Allow roughly 45 to 60 minutes, depending on pace. It suits an afternoon or evening smoke.

This cigar appeals to smokers who like the sweeter, richer side of a maduro wrapper without losing Nicaraguan spice. It is also a good choice for fans of the original Flor de las Antillas who want a heavier smoke.
