Story and Accolades:
A tribute from Jaime Garcia to his father, the legendary Don Pepin Garcia, the My Father Le Bijou 1922 commemorates the year of Don Pepin's birth. “Le Bijou,” meaning “The Jewel,” captures the essence of this full-bodied masterpiece.

The box-pressed torpedo format enhances draw and flavor intensity. Critically acclaimed, the Le Bijou 1922 was named Cigar Aficionado’s #1 Cigar of the Year in 2015, earning a stellar 97 rating for its complexity, craftsmanship, and bold, refined flavor.

Pairing:
Best enjoyed with a bold spirit like aged rye whiskey or dark rum, or paired with a strong espresso for a rich, contemplative smoke.
