Closed foot cigars
The Gordo Especial is the epitome of cigar craftsmanship and is our premium closed foot cigar. Unlike traditional open foot cigars, the closed foot design enhances the initial lighting ritual, allowing the wrapper’s nuanced aromas to shine.
The closed foot concentrates the wrapper’s rich oils and flavours at the start. Delivering an intensely aromatic first light that immediately reveals the cigar’s true character. The pigtail on the footer allows for the easy lighting of the cigar. The imposing 60 ring gauge format offers a cooler, slower burn. Extending your enjoyment while allowing the nuanced flavours to develop gradually.
Unlike traditional cigars that take time to reach their “sweet spot,” the Gordo Especial’s design maximises the filler, binder, and wrapper interaction. Offering a bold, rich taste immediately and maintaining consistency throughout. Our Gordo Especial cigars are made with high-quality tobaccos and are made in three diverse blends:
-
Connecticut: A medium strength, medium body handmade cigar that has an Ecuadorian Connecticut shade wrapper. A Nicaraguan binder and a mix of Ecuadorian and Dominican long fillers.
Habano: A medium strength, medium body handmade cigar that has a Nicaraguan wrapper and binder with a mix of Ecuadorian and Dominican long fillers.
Maduro: A full strength, full body handmade cigar that has a Nicaraguan wrapper and binder with a mix of Ecuadorian Ligero and Dominican long fillers. For those who seek depth and intensity.
Despite their shorter length, they offer a 45-60 minute burn that rivals the complexity and satisfaction of longer cigars.
