The story goes that one of the blenders at Duran Cigars wanted to name a cigar after his mother to honor her. The wish was granted, and the Neya was created.

As a cigar blogger, I look forward to the releases from Perdomo for a couple of reasons.

At times figuring out what to review and what to smoke can be difficult. We have reviewed the Connecticut and the Sun Grown edition of the cigar that features a […]
