Sensory Blend Profile
A 5¼ x 50 robusto extra from GTO, built on a blend Dr. Oscar Rodriguez found in his grandfather's ledgers. Cibao Valley corojo aged up to ten years, boxed six in a Connecticut Shade wrapper and six in a family-grown Connecticut Broadleaf-seed wrapper.
Going through old family ledgers, GTO founder Dr. Oscar Rodriguez found his grandfather's blending formula for aged, first-generation Cuban-seed tobacco from the family's farms in the Cibao Valley, with a handwritten note on the last page: “For the Royal Game only”. The royal game is chess. Launched in October 2025, each box of twelve holds six Connecticut Shade and six Connecticut Broadleaf-seed cigars.
