La Gloria Cubana Medaille D-Or No.1

[Toast]

Offered a box of these today; size is fairly new to me, may take few runs to master the smoking of her. Anyone had had a chance to smoke a few of these?

gauge 36 by 7.2

Not yet, but please let me know what you think of it because I love me some Lanceros!

Actually a Panetela larga; I have near no experience with these sizes, I remember contacting Dion staff about making this size; in a gold label. "If we come out with a new cigar; we'll make the size" not sure if he was blowing Nic tobacco smoke up my ass.

I really like all of the lgc stuff. Better aged is my preference. They are quite mild but very flavourfull.

I have one stashed away, but have yet to smoke one.

I've heard they are very mild - first smoke of the day kind of stick.

I love the Wavells (Robusto size), don't generally care for longer sticks cause there is not much to them until about 1/2 way through.

The MdOs are great. The #1 is thinner than a Lag#1 but it does not lack in flavor due to its smaller RG. There are some 2000s available in different locations that have the dreadful H2000 (fireproof) wrappers. Be aware these cigars do not burn well, to this day.

I think they are great...only have had 2 or 3...but they are a tasty stick indeed! Nice pick up!

I was offered but didn't bite.

I like them a lot. I've got a 3 or 4 y.o. Box in the cooler waiting to be cracked.

Starts mild, with floral & citrus, ends full with classic Cuban twang.

 

[Craig Mac]

Had one and enjoyed it

 

[Alwayslit]

I'll say this again. These are one of the best morning smokes on the planet

The MdO NO.1 is my favorite La Gloria


I also Like the MdO No.2's & 4's as well.

Have yet to try the MDO No.3's

Gotta love those cuban Wavells ... :grin:

Definitely agree. These are excellent with 5+ yrs of age. On the mild side for habanos, but they are in the medium body / strength range.
