It's a La Gloria Cubana Serie R Limtada 2006 Humidor full of 30 sticks which are the biggest sticks you'll ever see!
From another site:
Uncommon. Exceptional. Rare. It doesn’t matter which adjective you choose. Just 21,000 La Gloria Cubana Serie R Limitada 2006 cigars were made, and that''''s worldwide. So if you’re able to get your hands on one, only one adjective really matters – lucky.
No need to say that this is a stick for serious smokers. The La Gloria Cubana Serie R line is well known for creating high quality cigars and the 2006 is certainly no exception. This torpedo delivers the same full-bodied, complex tastes of other La Gloria Serie R cigars. However, this creation provides a new combination of Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos for both the binder and the filler. La Gloria Cubana Serie R Limitada 2006 comes in two varieties, natural and maduro. The Maduro has a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper. The natural comes with an Ecuadoran Sumatra.
The Connecticut Broadleaf is slightly oily to the touch while the natural is smooth. Both are firm and big, with a 63 gauge. Repeat, a 63 gauge. Impressive? You better believe it. As for the smoke, you certainly don’t need us to tell you, but we will anyway. It’s awesome. The first draw will produce a heavy, wood-scented smoke. The ash is light gray and firm. The flavor is of the complexity that you would expect in a La Gloria Cubana Serie R. Imagine a spicy leather with silky chocolate espresso undertones.
I'd only SEEN one before. Skipper hooked me up with one. It was supposed to be a special smoke for my daughter's wedding day!
