This Le Bijou 1922 100 Años was released to commemorate the 100 years of José García Alayón, the father of José “Pepín” García. The cigar is rich and bold from the first to the last puff. The strength is full, and the same goes for the flavors’ intensity. A fulfilling and well-balanced smoke.
It brings notes of earth, espresso, and spices to the palate, the latter mainly in the aftertaste, with the black pepper enriching the whole smoke. The profile is completed with leather and vegetal aromas.

HOW ARE THE AWARDS MADE?
Those who scored the highest among the cigars tested during the year in blind tastings and reviews get re-selected. These products are then tested once again in a new blind tasting, which means not knowing what they are during the tasting. The test results are then compared, and the TOP 5 are created.
Since 2015, CigarsLover Magazine has focused on terroirs in order to give the right space to all the producing countries. From 2018, the TOP 5 were paired with the TOP 50, which lists the 50 best cigars without distinction of origin. Together with the Best Brands, the Best Buy, and the best Boutique Brands, this list will be published in CigarsLover Magazine issue #5.
