Guantanamera
Guantanamera Cristales - Pack Of 5 Cigars
The Guantanamera Cristales is a uniquely accessible, budget-friendly creation launched in 2002 by Habanos S.A. Named after Cuba's world-famous song "Guajira Guantanamera" by Joseito Fernández, this brand was specifically designed to serve as an ultra-affordable, entry-level gateway into the world of genuine Cuban tobacco, making it immensely popular for casual smokers and beginners alike.
Architecturally, this blend is a 100% Cuban puro, but it differs from premium hand-rolled lines by utilizing short-filler tobacco harvested from the lesser-known Vuelta Arriba region. This tobacco choice delivers the natural, earthy aroma of authentic Cuban soil but keeps the nicotine strength exceptionally light and gentle. To ensure maximum convenience, every cigar features a factory pre-cut head, meaning a cigar cutter is completely unnecessary—you can light it straight out of the pack.

First Third: The cigar opens with an incredibly light and straightforward presentation, introducing gentle flavors of soft cedar wood, light cream, and a subtle hint of green tea. The retrohale is completely devoid of pepper or harsh bite, remaining soft and smooth.
Second Third: Moving into the main barrel, the profile remains consistently mild. Subtle characteristics of toasted grains, roasted peanuts, and a very delicate touch of wildwood honey sweetness emerge, keeping the mouthfeel crisp and light.
Final Third: The brief conclusion introduces a slight increase in herbal depth while staying firmly within its light framework. Mild notes of dry oak, soft earth, and a faint hint of coffee bean harmonize cleanly, finishing short and highly approachable.
