Description
China's Top Cigar Value Benchmark: High-end, unique, and scarce, these are the value tags of the Great Wall (GL1). It embodies a century of craftsmanship from Great Wall Cigars and sets a new value benchmark for Chinese cigars, showcasing a unique Eastern strength among the world's top cigars. [High-end]: Top quality, value benchmark. 'No. 1 belongs to the people,' the best No. 1 cigar in the chairman's heart, once used as a national gift to host foreign guests, establishing the top value benchmark for Chinese cigars. [Unique]: The only one to score 95 points in the blind tasting of the international cigar magazine Cigar Journal, surpassing many well-known foreign cigar brands. [Scarce]: Rare raw materials, each piece like gold: the main raw materials come from the special tobacco fields supplied to the chairman in Shifang, combined with 14-year-aged Dominican tobaccos, making the raw materials rare and precious. Scarce craftsmanship, a pinnacle work: using the unique 'Yichuan Laofang fermentation method,' from tobacco leaves to finished products, taking over ten years, achieving peak flavor and smoothness. Scarce rolling, four master artisans: each cigar is hand-rolled by the four master artisans of 'Haoyue Changchun,' with each one selected by the factory's color master, showcasing exquisite skills and meticulous craftsmanship. Scarce maintenance, carefully aged: the product is aged for over seven years, holding significant collectible value and appreciation potential. In 2017, on the occasion of the 124th anniversary of the chairman's birth, 52 pieces were publicly auctioned, setting a new height for the value of Chinese cigars with a transaction price of 280,000 yuan.
