Description

The Perlas de Rafael Gonzalez falls into the category of “any occasion” cigars. Its format of 102 mm in length by 15.87 mm in diameter makes it enjoyable during a roughly 30-minute break.

The Perlas' smooth and delicate aroma will suit most smokers, from beginners to the most experienced. A cigar in the great Cuban tradition, 100% Havana (puro) and “totalmente a mano”.

The history of the Rafael Gonzalez brand remains largely a mystery. It was first recorded when it was acquired by El Rey del Mundo in 1936, then disappeared in the early 1940s before reappearing in 1965. The very existence of a Rafael Gonzalez behind the brand has never been proven.

    Being upfront about the batch details is more reliable than just insisting that "everything is the same".

    This one doesn't come on strong right from the start, it builds up slowly and steadily — that's exactly my kind of thing.

    The ash line is quite even — at least that's how all the ones I've smoked have been.

    The craftsmanship is even more refined than it looks in the pictures.

    The seam is visible, but it hasn't affected actual use for now.

  • The first half is relatively mild, and the flavor becomes richer in the second half — a little variation keeps it from being boring.

  • No particularly prominent sweetness, just a hint of it, barely there — just right.

  • Paired with a cup of unsweetened coffee, the flavours go together very well.

  • There's spice, but it doesn't constantly overpower the other flavours — the balance is quite good.
