I spend quite a bit of time trying to make sure that none of
halfwheel’s reviewers are reviewing the same brand of cigars consecutively. Typically that means trying to make sure that a brand doesn’t have its cigars reviewed by the same reviewer twice in a row. Every once in a while that happens, but an even rarer occurrence is to have consecutive reviews from a particular reviewer be of the same brand.
Of course, that is because there are actually two very different La Gloria Cubanas. One of them is sold only in the U.S., a brand owned by Scandinavian Tobacco Group and sold by Forged Cigar Co. Then there is the brand being reviewed today, the Cuban La Gloria Cubana owned by Habanos S.A. which is the La Gloria Cubana cigar sold in every country that is not the United States.
