My Father Le Bijou 1922 Torpedo (6 1/8 52) Box

In June 2002, Don Pepin Garcia founded the "El Rey de los Habanos" factory with his family. Pepín came from a family of tobacco farmers and joined the family business in 1961 at the age of 11. In 1963 he joined the "Félix Rodríguez" factory, owned by another uncle and always located in Baéz. There he developed a long career until he was finally able to leave Cuba in 2001. During this time he received numerous prizes and awards for the quality of his work, including the prestigious Productivity Award.

Today he has his own factory in the Little Havana neighborhood of Miami. This manufactory belongs to the quality elite of the industry and is universally recognized. For José "Pepín" García, cigars represent his career and passion. His factory "El Rey de los Habanos" is the fulfillment of a childhood dream. Don Pepin Garcia cigars are full-bodied, aromatic and balanced.

The My Father Le Bijou 1922 Torpedo Box Pressed is an award winning premium cigar from Nicaragua. José "Pepín" García created the series as a tribute to his father, who was born in 1922. The name "Le Bijou" translates to "The Jewel", reflecting the distinctive character of this creation from My Father Cigars. In 2015, the Torpedo Box Pressed received an outstanding 97 point rating from Cigar Aficionado and was named Cigar of the Year.

The blend combines carefully selected Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos with a dark Habano Oscuro wrapper. Its flavour profile is intense and complex, opening with bold pepper notes before developing rich aromas of dark chocolate, espresso, leather and roasted wood. A subtle natural sweetness and creamy smoke provide balance throughout, leading to a long lasting finish.

Measuring 156 mm in length with a ring gauge of 52 and a diameter of 20.6 mm, this cigar features a distinctive Torpedo shape. Its box pressed construction creates a slightly squared profile, while the tapered head allows the cut to be adjusted to personal preference. These handmade longfiller cigars are presented in a box containing 23 pieces.
