COVID-19 Day 908:
I decided that I need to give this Persian King Raja (Toro) by Gran Habano Cigars some love today and brought it along with me on today’s journey to the Cigar Lounge.
Once lit, complex tobacco flavors come to me with a creamy smooth finish… a great start with earthy black pepper, a splash of chocolate, bread, and maybe some nougat or caramel (something sweet), with some mystery spices in there too all delivered on a stream of creamy smoke… Yep, this is one of my OG favorites! And, what I consider one of the best-kept secrets of the “Affordable” cigar offerings out in the market.
The draw is perfect throughout the cigar. The second third offers more of the same with a touch more toasty notes and some vanilla in there too.
I ran out of time just getting into the last third, but I knew that was going to happen. Nonetheless, I really enjoy my time with this Persian King Raja (Toro) by Gran Habano Cigars and can’t wait to smoke it again… Inside!

COVID-19 Cigar Walk, Day 128: 3.0-Mile Cigar
One of the ways you can identify this Persian King Raja (Toro) by Gran Habano Cigars is by the Pig-Tail Connecticut Wrapped foot as you can still see in this Ash from the start of the First-Third of this cigar.
I fell in love with the Persian King Rajah from my very first puff, It’s an affordable cigar that has enough complexity to keep things interesting and evolving, with Cocoa, Leather, and Earthy tobacco flavors riding on a creamy smooth finish.
I’m committing to smoking these Persian King Cigars by Gran Habano more frequently.

Today I enjoyed the Gran Habano Persian King Raja like I imagined it should be enjoyed as an integral part of my morning office routine of reading, note-taking, and writing often with a cigar hanging out of my mouth.
This cigar after having almost a couple of weeks of resting was pretty much spot on with my first experience, even the slight tingling on the lips at the start. This time it wasn’t as noticeable. The rest of the way was dreamy creamy goodness. I can’t wait to enjoy the rest of my box.

Finally, I’ve been wanting to try the Gran Habano Persian King Rajah ever since I watched a review on “Should I Smoke This” on YouTube a few months back. You folks might consider subscribing to his channel to gain some interesting insights. Here another link to his Patreon Page.
I’m glad I got my hands on a few of these. My guess from what I saw and heard was that this would potentially be “That” everyday stick through thick and thin; I think this may be “It”!
My punch-cut Cold draw left me with a tingling feeling on my lips and tongue — confirmed later by Ralph Sumo … interesting. There were no other prominent cold draw flavors that I could detect. Let’s fire it up.
The rest of the way was a sweet creamy smooth cedar and earth experience. There was also a mild pepper spice on the retrohale that wasn’t too pronounced; just the correct amount of spice as far as I’m concerned.
Now halfway and I’m not getting many transitions, but remember this is only 8 days in my TupperDor, so I expect an evolved experience next time I light one of these beautiful Gran Habano Persian Kings.
Oh by-the-way, I just purchased a box.
