90 points, Cigar Aficionado

Alec Bradley Prensado Lost Art Gran Toro, a premium cigar crafted with the finest tobacco leaves from Honduras and Nicaragua. The Prensado cigar line is known for its exceptional quality and craftsmanship, and the Lost Art Gran Toro is no exception. The line is named after the pressing method used to create the cigars, which involves applying pressure to the leaves to achieve a firm and even construction. Ensuring that the cigars burn evenly and produce a consistent flavour throughout.

Featuring a gorgeous Honduran Corojo 99 sun-grown wrapper that was carefully aged over 4 years to achieve its stunning dark brown colour and smooth texture. Beautifully blended with Nicaraguan Jalapa binder, and Honduran and Nicaraguan long-filler tobaccos, delivering an enticing yet complex flavour.

This smoke is full-bodied, with a smooth and satisfying draw, bursting with notes of black pepper and spice. Followed by flavours of coffee, leather and dark chocolate. As the flavours intensify, this richness is complemented by underlying hints of cedar and earthy tones, leaving you with a pleasant aftertaste that lingers on the palate. The Prensado Lost Art Gran Toro is a must-try for any cigar enthusiast looking for a premium smoke that delivers on taste, aroma, and quality.
