Undercrown Shade Gran Toro

Undercrown Shade Gran Toro cigar by Drew Estate

family. Gran Toro: Format and Comparisons Shade Gran Toro combines six inches of length with a 52 ring gauge. Shade Gordito retains that length and expands to 60 ring. Robusto is a shorter 5 × 54, so Gran Toro adds length while slightly reducing diameter. This is the Gran Toro format of the Shade expression, which Drew Estate describes as medium-bodied with earth, vanilla, caramel and pepper. Maduro Gran Toro uses the same listed measurements. UC 10 also includes a 6 × 52 cigar under the Toro name, within the separate anniversary family.
