La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor Valentino 6″ x 60

Valentino is the thick gordo in La Aroma de Cuba’s dark Mi Amor line. The La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor Valentino, built by the García family at My Father, wraps Nicaraguan binder and filler in a dark Mexican San Andrés leaf, at a medium to full body.

The flavor usually leans toward cocoa, espresso, almond, and a sweet, peppery edge. At 6 by 60, the thick gordo burns cool and slow.

The medium to full body suits a relaxed evening sit. It is sold as singles or boxes of 25, so one is an easy first taste. A dark, big-ring Mi Amor.

Pairs well with espresso, aged rum, or stout.
