Raices Clasico Gordo

Mild and well-balanced Honduran

The Raíces Clásico Gordo comes from the renowned Raíces Cubanas factory in Danlí, Honduras, and brings the classic virtues of the Clásico range to a more substantial format. With a light brown Trojes wrapper and a filler and binder made from pure Honduran tobaccos (Jamastran & Trojes), this Gordo combines delicate aromatics with a creamy richness. The larger ring gauge ensures a cooler smoking experience and a particularly smooth, yet expressive, unfolding of the blend’s flavours.

Refined, balanced, pleasant

The Clásico Gordo offers a balanced, mild flavour profile with noticeable smoothness and depth. The taste is dominated by roasted nuts, a hint of sweetness and subtle spicy notes, accompanied by soft hints of wood and hay. Thanks to its wide format, the smoke develops in a particularly smooth, full-bodied and even manner – ideal for relaxed moments of enjoyment with a consistent aromatic balance.
