You need to try these limited edition La Gloria Cubana cigars

You should never pass up a good cigar deal, especially one on a Limited Edition release like La Gloria Cubana’s 8th Street series. With an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers, it delivers a rich, creamy, and delicious smoke all the way through. You’ll even taste a bit of apple pie as you glide through each third. But here’s the best part: A box of 10 is $59 off right now, which drops the price down to $160 instead of its usual $219. That’s a fantastic deal, and if you’re looking to stock your humidor with something a little less common, now’s a great time to do it.

Why you should buy the Limited Edition La Gloria Cubana 8th Street

Commemorating the 1990s boom of the La Gloria Cubana brand in the United States — the cigar maker has actually been around since as far back as 1885 — this Limited Edition release is worth a try, at the very least. The label borrows elements from the El Credito and El Titan de Bronze factories in Miami, which both put the company on the map and its creators, including one Ernesto Perez-Carillo Jr. While honoring the roots of the brand was the goal, the outcome is an incredibly nuanced and unique blend.

Available in a 6 x 50 toro size, with a medium to full body, and with an eclectic yet delicious blend, the La Gloria Cubana 8th Street series has lots of personality and flavor. An Ecuadorian Habano wrapper graces the outside and is joined by a Nicaraguan binder, as well as a blend of Dominican Republic and Nicaraguan fillers. Some of the flavors you can expect include molasses, dark chocolate, raisins, red pepper, apple pie, cake, plums, and more.

As a limited run, there are only 5,000 boxes of 10 cigars, which comes to a total production of 50,000 cigars. If you don’t know the scene, that means there really won’t be many of these in the wild once they sell out. There’s always a chance that you’ll never get to experience a limited release, especially depending on availability where you live.

If you’re at all interested in the blend or want to give the full-flavored cigar a try for yourself, this deal is the perfect time to acquire some. Normally $219 for a box of 10, you can get them for just $160 right now — saving $59. Be right back, I’m going to go order some for myself. I don’t want to miss out on this offer either.

9 shows to watch if you love The Walking Dead
AMC's zombie show was a phenomenon. These shows will help you revisit that thrill
Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes in The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live.

The Walking Dead started as a niche zombie series in the early 2010s, but it built up steam and transformed into a runaway hit just a few seasons after its inception. By the middle of the decade, Robert Kirkman's post-apocalyptic series was the most popular program on basic cable TV. It revolutionized long-form storytelling and created a rabid fandom that allowed it to run for over a decade and spawn many spinoffs.

Undead monsters aren't the only thing that made The Walking Dead such a fascinating and addictive watch, though. The depth of the characters and the survivalist strategies of the entire group made for thrilling, adrenaline-filled episodes that other shows had a hard time matching. We have the best shows like The Walking Dead to watch next if you love the binge-worthiness of world-ending drama in this comic book adaptation.
