Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial

Description

Like father, like son.

Jaime (pronounced Hi-may) Garcia is the son of Don Pepin Garcia, and an integral member of the family business. He's worked side-by-side with Pepin for years and has had in hands in a number of projects. But now, he's got his own eponymous brand - blended entirely solo.

Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial utilizes a dark, oily Broadleaf maduro wrapper paired with a rich blend of Nicaraguan long-fillers with tobaccos from some of the Garcia family's farms. It's on the fuller side, but smooth and layered with notes of espresso, pepper, earth, and cedar. A tasty, well-made stick that will make the old man proud. Burn one of these, and you'll experience the artisanal skill of this family history.

Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial received a well-deserved 90-point rating, noting: "Even though this dark, near-veinless robusto is solid to the touch, it draws wonderfully, leaving full-bodied notes of pepper, wine oak and coffee bean flavors on the palate."

Bought a couple of these at my local brick and mortar, based entirely on the chonkiness. I'm smoking one as I type this, and it's incredible. My palette isn't developed enough to pick out individual flavors, but it tastes amazing, and the draw is super easy. I can see this easily becoming one of my favorites.

The Reserva Especial has been my go-to #1 favorite cigar for years now. The rich, earthy flavor is consistent throughout the line. Construction is flawless. This cigar is what i compare all others to.

One of my absolute favorite cigars. Lots of flavor, very pleasing, yet very smooth indeed. Consistent in every aspect. I had this with some Laphroaig, believe it or not, some may say the Laphroaig will over power, not so (IMHO). I do get a oak also chocolate/coffee notes and some nuttiness. Excellent.

I had 3 of a five pack and one was great so far...idk if it was that that I left the last one one in the humidor a little longer or that that the first 2 just stunk....the cigar looks terrible but the last one I smoked was great so who knows... I would recommend with reservations...keep them in the humidor for a few weeks then enjoy... good luck

I enjoyed the Reserva. I enjoyed the regular Jaime Garcia more, however. The Reserva is smooth. It has a nice draw. The ash is white. The taste is solid: you can taste the tobacco very well without too much effort.

The Garcia / Pepin family knows how to do it. In a weird way I was pleasantly surprised, because this was my first entry into Jaime. But I should have know better, I love everything I’ve tried from this family. A beautiful cigar with a perfect draw and incredible flavor. Now in my top 5.

This has always been one of my very favorite cigars, but my most recent order of Robusto 5 packs (3 packs of 5) have been somewhat disappointing thus far. I sense that these cigars need some time in the humidor. The cigars have a slightly unpleasant "green" sort of taste to them. Not nearly as smooth as previous orders. I will set them aside for later.
