La Flor de Cano Selectos No.3 UK RE 2023 / Single Cigar

Description

Length: 6½″   Ring Gauge: 42

The 2023 UK Habanos Regional Edition La Flor de Cano Selectos No.3 will be available from UK La Casa del Habano shops and Havana Cigar Specialists from 7th February 2025.
The Selectos No.3 is the third UK Regional Edition from the brand, following the Short Robusto (2010) and the Gran Cano (2013). 125,000 Selectos No.3 cigars have been produced, each sporting a unique band printed with the size name. They are presented in 5,000 cabinet boxes of 25 cigars (SLB’s).
The Flor de Cano Selectos No.3 is a Cervantes size measuring 6 ½” (165mm) x 42 ring gauge and often affectionately referred to as a Lonsdale, having been named after the fifth Earl of Lonsdale, Hugh Cecil Lowther (1857–1944), who made the size famous.
Despite at one time being one of the most popular sizes, today only one Cervantes size remains in the Habanos standard portfolio; the Montecristo No.1.
The Selectos No.3 has a sweet floral beginning that includes a citrus freshness. As the cigar progresses this develops into a rich spiciness without ever losing its charm and tipping into bitterness.
The relatively long and slim vitola provides a perfect format for Flor de Cano’s elegant blend to evolve throughout the hour or so it takes to enjoy. It is a pleasure to smoke now but will no doubt age with the grace and refinement of its illustrious predecessors.
