Dapper: La Madrina Corona Gorda Cigars
Product Number: 007-858-0010
One of Dapper's strongest, most full-bodied cigars, the La Madrina means "the godmother" in Spanish and references Yolanda Garfias Woo. Known affectionately as "La Madrina," Yolanda is an artist and educator in San Francisco who was instrumental in spreading awareness throughout California about the Mexican holiday Día de los Muertos, and the cigar honors the Day of the Dead festival with a macabre skeleton-hand-holding-rose icon marking the box and band. However, while Dapper describes La Madrina as "extra full," this cigar doesn't lack in complexity or nuance, utilizing tobaccos from five different countries: The filler blend combines leaf from Oliva's farms in Nicaragua with Habano '92 tobacco from the Dominican Republic and Pennsylvania Broadleaf from the USA. Encasing this tri-country combo, then, are a Mexican San Andrés binder and a wrapper from Oliva's La Luchita farm in Ecuador. Hand-rolled at Raul Disla's NACSA factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, and defined by intense notes of chocolate mixed with earth and sweetness, as well as hints of fruit in the retrohale, Dapper's La Madrina is for the discerning connoisseur, not the faint of heart.

Not rolled tight for all the different leaves in there. Burned even with no touch ups. Now to the good part, after the first few puffs there were tastes on the “upper” part of my palate I’d never had from a cigar. Some tingly pepper, citrus? like the pineapple bits in c-ration fruitcake and smooth sweetish bread. The warning about this being a strong cigar I ignored because the retrohale was good too. The flavor intensifies in the second third, and even more in the last third. The nicotine didn’t rear its head until it started to burn my fingers, but no sugar or sofa was required.
This was not my usual Nicaraguan cigar, and I liked it. A lot....Read More
