Desflorado Half Corona

A. Flores 1975 Gran Reserva Desflorado · 3.5 × 46 Half Corona

The Master's Signature Flagship Chapter:PDR Cigars was founded by renowned Dominican blender Abraham "Abe" Flores in the tobacco mecca of Tamboril. As the workshop's benchmark series paying tribute to its founder, "A. Flores 1975" takes its name from the year of its inception, embodying his decades of unique understanding of traditional Cuban rolling techniques and multi-region leaf blending. Its classic recipe has been selected multiple times for authoritative lists such as Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 of the Year.

The Ingenious Desflorado Topping Process:The most captivating feature of this cigar is its Connecticut Desflorado wrapper. During the growth of the tobacco plant, farmers manually remove the flower buds, allowing the nutrients and sugars that would have gone to the flowers to fully return and concentrate in the upper leaves. Compared to regular shade leaves, Desflorado leaves have a more enticing golden hue and a rich, oily texture, shedding herbal bitterness to reveal a smooth, silky sweetness of cream and roasted nuts.

Traditional Entubado Leaf Binding and a Refined Short-Cigar Experience:The workshop strictly adheres to the traditional Cuban Entubado (tubular leaf binding) hand-rolling process and triple cap method, using a Dominican Olor wrapper and a blend of aged Dominican Corojo and Nicaraguan Habano long filler leaves. The 3.5-inch length paired with a 46 ring gauge not only ensures a smooth draw and gentle burn but also allows the refined, delicate creaminess to unfold leisurely over approximately half an hour.

Product Highlights

  • Premium Desflorado Topped Wrapper:The manual topping process concentrates natural sugars and oils, creating a bright golden color and delivering a naturally delicate sweetness of cream and vanilla.
  • Traditional Cuban Entubado Leaf Binding:Hand-rolled tubular folded long filler leaves paired with a triple cap create a firm structure with an open draw, producing smooth, mellow smoke free from harshness.
  • 3.5 × 46 Half Corona Proportions:The 46 ring gauge provides ample cooling, fully revealing the smooth, gentle, and refined layers over 25 to 35 minutes of leisure.
  • A Refined, Balanced Choice for Everyday Enjoyment:With a moderate to mild strength, the Dominican woody notes complement the Nicaraguan nuttiness perfectly, making it ideal as a morning coffee companion or for relaxed everyday enjoyment.

Flavor in Three Acts

Act I · Creamy Sweet Almond Opening

The cold draw offers a gentle sweetness of hay and delicate vanilla. Once lit, the smoke is light and refined, with the Desflorado topping delivering a full, mellow butter cream and sweet green almond flavor, accompanied by a subtle cedar aroma. Almost free from harshness, it offers a smooth and pleasant start.

Act II · Roasted Aromas and Nutty Fusion

As it reaches the middle, the creamy texture of the smoke becomes more concentrated. The rich aromas of toasted white bread, whole wheat biscuits, and roasted nuts gradually unfold, while the Dominican Olor wrapper and Nicaraguan filler leaves introduce subtle woody and white pepper notes. Sweet and rich without being one-dimensional, it showcases the unique oiliness that the Desflorado process imparts to Connecticut leaves.

Act III · Smooth Cedar Finish

The latter half maintains a comfortable, mild balance. Lightly roasted coffee, pure cedar, and natural cane sweetness blend together, while the 46 ring gauge ensures the short cigar remains cool and smooth through the end. The finish is clean and mellow, leaving behind an elegant, refined creaminess.
