An Expression of Gratitude

We're honored to have some of the most passionate fans in the industry and wanted to create a cigar to express our gratitude. But to make the best, we had to tap into the minds of those who know us best. 

Last August, we released our Society Cigar, developed with input from over 2,000 of our most devoted fans. Together, we selected the cigar's profile, packaging, and size in a collaborative process that spanned nearly a year. The result was a full-flavored smoke that embodies generations of loyalty and support from our fans. 

It garnered such a positive response from the community, we knew we couldn't stop there.

Two months after the initial release, we began recruiting Society members from around the country to help us create the Society Cigar 2023. After learning about their blend preferences, we gathered those members’ thoughts on three different cigar options. They recently selected the packaging design to complete the final step in the process. 

Thanks to their input, the next Society Cigar features a four-country blend that delivers complexity unlike anything else we’ve crafted. Watch for the official launch of the Society Cigar 2023 later this year. We can’t wait to share it with you, the fans who support our legacy and continue to push us forward.

Member of the Month

Get To Know David Jackson

Introducing our April LGC Society Member of the Month, David Jackson! David is from Denver, CO, and has enjoyed cigars for almost 20 years. Known as @cigarbueno on Instagram, he’s a cigar enthusiast who regularly shares his smoking experiences.


  • Favorite Cigar

    Either the Esteli or Spanish Press.

  • How Did you Learn about la Gloria Cubana?

    I was first introduced to La Gloria Cubana when I purchased some at a local brick and mortar. I researched the brand and decided to try the La Gloria Cubana Serie R.
    I was so impressed I later bought a box.

  • Who do you want to smoke with?

    This is a no-brainer. I would most enjoy a cigar with Tom Selleck. He appears to be a stand-up guy, and I can imagine the stories told between two cigar smokers.

  • WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LGC MEMORY

    I had a box of LGC Serie R Maduro and set a few aside to age for a year in my humidor. I was pleasantly surprised that the cigar got better. I could taste richer cocoa notes, which played very well with the spices in the cigar. I believe I smoked this with cognac, and it was like a symphony in perfect harmony.

  • Describe LGC in one word

    Virtuous.
