And there\u2019s only one word that can describe it. Wow.<\/p>\n<p>The aesthetics of the box is immediately enticing. It\u2019s packaged in a very interesting bright-red, hexagonal, wooden box with the beautiful gold \u201cSerie N\u201d logo. Upon opening, you\u2019ll notice the arrangement of the 24 cigars in a quirky angular configuration.<\/p>\n<p>I recently sat down with Charles Ferguson, Operations Manager at Emerson\u2019s Cigars in Hampton Roads, Virginia, for his take on the Serie N. Charles has nearly a decade of experience in the cigar industry. His knowledge and extensive dedication to this business instantly made him my go-to guy. That, and he smoked my sample\u2026 Here\u2019s what he had to say about La Gloria Cubana Serie N:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUpon initial examination, it was hard not to notice this cigar\u2019s impressive construction. It was firm, but not too hard, with a very pleasant aroma. The first third was pretty mild with a good draw and lots of smoke. Almost akin to the strength of tea.<\/p>\n<p>However, that changed in the second third, like going from tea to coffee. The increase in intensity brought with it some nice rich flavors. Stronger, but not too spicy.<\/p>\n<p>The final third was like switching from coffee to espresso and finalized the Serie N as a full-bodied smoke. There was lots of flavor with some great chocolate undertones.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the Serie N was an amazing cigar. I can\u2019t wait to bring it to my customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The breakdown of the Serie N is as follows:<br \/>\nWrapper: Capa Oscura<br \/>\nBinder: Nicaraguan<br \/>\nFiller: Nicaraguan<br \/>\nStrength: Full Bodied<\/p>\n<p>La Gloria Cubana Serie N is expected to hit stores sometime this fall and will be available at all five Emerson\u2019s Cigars locations in Hampton Roads as well as online at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.emersonscigars.com\">www.EmersonsCigars.com<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m not sure what they put in the water over there at La Gloria Cubana but let me just say, they are on FIRE this year!
