I have generally been impressed with the La Gloria Cubana cigars. Both the ones rolled in Miami and the Dominican Republic cigars I have tried I enjoyed quite a bit (especially the ultra toothy Serie R.) According to Cigar Aficionado the owner Ernesto Perez-Carrillo is almost complete in creating a new line. The Miami factory, which used to produce part of the cigars along with the Dominican factory will become the place responsible for producing the new Miami line. We might have to get our hands on some of these once they are ready and give them a taste testing. Anyone with a Cigar Insider account want to tell us if we are missing any other details?

I read that yesterday too, and was equally excited. I find the La Glorias are generally good to excellent. My two favorites are the Wavell natural and the Serie R natural — in fact, I smoked one tonight!
I am definitely looking forward to this new Miami line!

I have long been a fan of the Series R and the brand in general. This is exciting new, thanks for the heads up, I’ll be watching.
