Often labeled the No. 3 "Cremas," this is the toro-sized cigar in the original My Father lineup. It measures 6 x 49 with a slightly tapered head, finished in the line's smooth Ecuadorian Habano Rosado wrapper over all-Nicaraguan binder and filler from the García family farms in Estelí.
What it tastes like
The "Cremas" nickname is earned — there's a creamy smoothness running through it, wrapped around the García family's signature cedar. Cocoa, toasted nuts, and a steady black-pepper spice round it out, and the longer toro format gives flavors room to develop and shift as you smoke. It's medium-full: substantial and flavorful but balanced, never sharp. Construction is reliably clean with an even burn and good draw.
Who it's for
The toro size and creamy-but-spicy profile make this an easy everyday pick for anyone past the mild stage. If you're deciding between a lighter and a darker wrapper for daily smoking, our Maduro vs Connecticut guide is a helpful frame, and this all-Nicaraguan puro is a great example for our Cuban vs Nicaraguan comparison.
Burn one slowly with a coffee, then log it and rate it in the Casa DNC app to track it in your humidor.
