Cigars Daily LIVE 427: Is My Father's New Cigar Better Than the Blue?

Last year My Father dropped the Blue and it changed the conversation. A Honduran puro from the Garcia family, produced at their brand new factory, and it flew off shelves faster than anyone expected. Some people called it a home run. Some thought it was just okay. But nobody ignored it. Now the second cigar out of that same Honduras factory has arrived and it's called La Lealtad, which means "The Loyalty." Tonight we're putting it to the test.

La Lealtad is a different animal than the Blue. Where the Blue was a full Honduran puro wrapped in Connecticut Broadleaf Rosado, La Lealtad brings an Ecuadorian Habano Oscuro Rosado wrapper over a double binder from Honduras and Nicaragua with Honduran and Nicaraguan filler. It's described as medium to full and reportedly pushes the flavor harder than the Blue did. The Garcia family is clearly not sitting still with this Honduras operation and tonight we're breaking down whether this second release lives up to the first one or surpasses it entirely.
