Of all the L’Atelier cigars created in the company’s first ten years, La Mission cigars are by far the highest-rated. Inspiring a stunning 95 points from the judges at Cigar Aficionado, La Mission is destined to be the smoke by which this brand is measured.

Of course, it’s not that surprising, given the people behind it.

The L’Atelier cigars owner group is headed up by Pete Johnson of Tatuaje fame. Known for their robust and rustic flavorful blends, he tends to always create a cigar that’s interesting, even if it doesn’t earn the accolades of the top premium cigars. Of course, he does earn accolades regularly, so he’s pretty much always on his game.

As for the team responsible for rolling up La Mission cigars, it’s the torcedores at My Father cigars factory in Nicaragua – the same group responsible for making multiple Cigar of the Year-winning blends.

Between these two groups, it’s pretty hard to imagine them making an inferior product, right?

The La Mission cigar was most impressive in the 1959 size, so that might be your best starting point if you’re not sure which one to pick up. It’s got a neat box press and a classic Cuban pigtail cap. That outside wrapper you see is a Mexican San Andrés tobacco, which brings the flavors of spice and leather to the blend. Inside, you’ll find Nicaraguan tobacco that comes in at medium-full strength, and that adds the taste of sweet caramel and salty walnut to the mix. The finish has a bit of a licorice note and was also cited by Cigar Aficionado for the taste of chocolate-covered almonds.

It’s a decently complex blend at the end of the day, and one with a wealth of beautiful flavors. We’d expect nothing less from Don Pepin, Pete Johnson, and the teams that make all their famous blends come together.
