The Brioso Gigante is a one-of-a-kind cigar because of its magical blend. The wrapper is the Maduro and Honduran Jamaican, the binder is the Connecticut Habano, and the filler is an exotic blend of tobacco leaves from Dominica, Mexico, and Nicaragua.
Starting from the inside out, the Dominican Ligero proffers the smoker an impeccable taste profile that is a sweet, woody flavor with a hint of black cherry taste. The Ligero is actually the tobacco leaves that are found at the very top of every tobacco plant. On the other hand, Mexican and Nicaraguan tobacco leaves have leathery, coffee, chocolate, spice, espresso beans, and oak tastes.
The Connecticut Habano binder also has a fascinating taste profile offering leathery, cedar, spices, and coffee into the mix. And lastly, the Maduro wrapper is pretty oily, delivering a chocolaty taste that elevates all the other flavors within the cigar.
These cigars are medium-bodied cigars that pair perfectly with rum and cognac. So much so you can enjoy one as you have a glass of either alone or with a group of fellow connoisseurs. Because they are rich in taste, they tend to be a bit too much for a newbie who is just starting out. But if you are bold enough, why not.
They come in a bundle of 20 Brioso Gigante cigars that have been aged to perfection. Each piece is handcrafted with the best technique handed down for generations. General Cigar Company did not fail on this variety as it delivers just the right amount of punch in taste, ensuring that you enjoy every cigar from beginning to end.
