Profile Note

Stronger than the original Big Papi, this Gordo Extra wears a dark San Andrés maduro wrapper over Dominican, Nicaraguan, and American filler for a bolder profile.

Big Papi is the line Tabacalera El Artista makes in the Dominican Republic with David Ortiz, the Boston Red Sox's “Big Papi”. It began in October 2016 with a single 6 x 54 toro, and the band shows Ortiz pointing to the sky, the salute he made after home runs in tribute to his late mother.
