La Palina Blue Label cigars were originally meant to be exclusives for the Tobacconists' Association of America (TAA), a select band of retail tobacconists. However, the Toro-sized smokes proved overwhelmingly popular, so the line was expanded and given a wide release. The La Palina Blue Label Gordo is a big bopper that delivers the same rich and savory yet super smooth experience as the original with more taste and complexity.
The Blue Label Gordo measures a thick 6" x 60 and is loaded down with an expertly blended mixture of Nicaraguan and Honduran filler tobaccos. The cigar also features a Honduran binder and a captivating Honduran Habano wrapper. Each Blue Label Gordo is assembled at the El Paraiso cigar factory in Danli, Honduras.
The La Palina Blue Label Gordo offers a medium-plus character right out of the gate, igniting the senses with a steady flow of rich chocolate, cedar, and walnut flavors. Hints of baking spice and cream emerge just as the smoke kicks into high gear with a medium-full texture. Sweetness adds a touch of sophistication to the sumptuous smoke, concluding with a clean, bold finish.
The La Palina Blue Label Gordo is all at once complex, vigorous, and satisfyingly smooth. There is much to like here, folks, so fire up a Blue Label Gordo with your favorite beverage, sit back and enjoy the joy of all the treasures this beauty offers.
