La Aroma de Cuba Edicion Especial No. 2 5″ x 50

The No. 2 sits in the robusto range of the reblended La Aroma de Cuba Edicion Especial, originally launched in 2008 and reworked into its current form in 2020.

The blend pairs a higher-priming Cuban-seed Ecuadorian Habano wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and Nicaraguan long-filler, drawn from the Garcia family estates in Estelí, Jalapa, and Namanji. Production is handled in small batches at My Father Cigars in Estelí, Nicaragua, under Jose “Pepin” Garcia. The No. 2 measures 5 by 50, at medium-to-full body.

The flavor tends to lean toward cedar, smoked almond, and dark cocoa, with leather and creamy espresso filling in through the middle and a peppery, slightly zesty finish carried by the Habano wrapper. Rated 94 by Cigar Aficionado. The 50 ring gauge keeps the wrapper’s character forward, with the higher-priming leaf adding a touch more depth than a standard Habano selection. The format fits a standard hour-long session.

Pairs well with coffee, aged rum, or porter.
