| A rare cigar, blended to replicate an authentic Cuban; Pelo de Oro may currently be the best concoction released by Felipe Gregorio.
Felipe Gregorio has produced many blends over the years, most of which have received a rating of 90 or higher by Cigar Aficionado. Some of the more popular blends stemming from this factory include Centenario Classic, Felipe Gregorio Icon, Felipe Gregorio Dominicana, and Power. With factories operating in Nicaragua, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic, it is no surprise Felipe Gregorio cigars are completely unique from blend to blend and in high demand. Pelo de Oro was considered one of the best releases in 2006. Consisting of 7-year-aged Nicaraguan long-leaf tobaccos, wrapped by a rare, Cuban-seed leaf grown in Costa Rica from first generation Cuban seeds, this cigar is rich, complex, and medium-bodied. In addition to its amazing wrapper and high quality filler, Pelo de Oro is rolled using the same methods still employed in Cuba – each leaf is “entubado” (folded accordion style) with the ligero always placed in the center of the cigar, creating incredible combustion for a perfect burn and draw. Offering earthy nuances with undertones of spice and pepper, Pelo de Oro is creamy, smooth, and an excellence choice any time of day. |

Felipe Gregorio is no strange name in the cigar industry. Responsible for earning many 90+ ratings, this factory has released such notable blends as Felipe Gregorio Icon, Centenario Classic, Felipe Gregorio Dominicana, and Pelo de Oro. With over 15 years of continued excellence, Felipe Gregorio cigars are top-notch with very few burn problems and seamless construction, each producing incredibly unique flavors differing from blend to blend. Felipe Power is a phenomenal cigar that received a 91 rating in 2007 by Cigar Aficionado. Inside, triple fermented Nicaraguan and Piloto Cubano long filler combine to produce robust, rich nuances of earth and cedar. These tobaccos were cultivated more than 12 years ago and therefore create an incredibly smooth character that blends perfectly with Power’s strength. The outer wrapper is a rare, dark and oily leaf grown from first generation Cuban seeds, the same used on Felipe’s Pelo de Oro. This cigar is full-bodied, full-flavored, and fully enjoyable. |
