La Union by Tatuaje & My Father Prominente Especial – Black (Box of 40)

To Celebrate 20 years of collaboration, partnership, and friendship Tatuaje and My Father cigars have launched La Union Limited Edition. Four blends were created, two by each cigarmaker. Each is available in only one vitola, which the cigarmakers call Prominente Especial that comes in at 7 1/4 inches long by 50 ring gauge and is topped with a 109-style belicoso head. The cigars blended by Johnson will have a closed foot, whereas Garcia’s will have a traditional, open foot.

La Union is split in two different box sets that are distinguished by their red or black exteriors. Inside each box are 20 cigars blended by Johnson and 20 by Garcia. Each blend has its own distinctive wrapper. The La Union Prominente Especial Black box contains a Johnson-blended cigar clad in a shade-grown Nicaraguan Corojo ’99 cover leaf and a Garcia-blended cigar covered in Ecuador Habano. For the La Union Prominente Especial Red box, Johnson uses Ecuador Sumatra and Garcia uses Connecticut broadleaf. The inside of each cigar is made with all-Nicaraguan binder and fillers, leaves that were all grown by the Garcias, including some Pelo d’Oro leaf.
