Information from Atlantic Cigar: |
My Father Le Bijou Cigars are the second installment of the My Father cigar lineup. A stellar blend that is rich and full bodied with lots of pepper and spice. The name Le Bijou is French for ''the jewel,'' and 1922 represents the year Jose ''Pepin'' Garcia's father was born. The original My Father was conceived by Pepin son Jaime as a tribute to his father, this new creation is Pepin's way of honoring his own father. The new cigars have an all-Nicaraguan blend with an Ecuadoran Habano Oscuro wrapper, a dark Colorado Maduro, enclosed are aged Nicaraguan fillers and binder. This blend is one of the most full bodied full cigars produced out of the My Father Cigar factory in Nicaragua. The cigar produces rich maduro flavors of chocolate and earth that coat the mouth, the construction is outstanding. |
