Bespoke's Gran Mareva is one of the more sought after brands in the super-premium Bespoke line-up.
Adorned with an oily Brazilian wrapper that will remind you of the colors you'll find in chocolate and pecan, inside this cigar features a Tripa made of aged Nicaragua Viso and Dominican Seco tobacco. The 5.5" x 42 cigar brings an ultra-smooth and creamy-honey taste to the table with a sugar-sweet tobacco aroma that will fill the room.
The Gran Mareva is blended exclusively for Bespoke by Hendrik Kelner, Jr at the KFB Factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic.
The Bespoke Gran Mareva cigar is available for sale in complete boxes of 24 as well as singles when in-stock. You can't go wrong with either option but it's rare for these cigars to become available so stock up when you have the chance.
