# Punch Grand Cru Cigar

Often referred to as the pride of the Punch collection, Grand Cru is a masterfully blended, silky cigar of great finesse, and is handcrafted to perfection.

This is a slightly mellower member of the Punch family, with most of the flavor being channeled through the silky Connecticut Shade wrapper and masterful blend of well-aged Honduran, Nicaraguan, and Dominican filler tobaccos. Called the pride of the Punch collection, Grand Cru is a silky cigar of great finesse, and is handcrafted to perfection. The top-selling "No. 2" frontmark was awarded with 90 and 91 ratings from Cigar Aficionado. Cigar Aficionado also awarded the Punch Grand Cru "No. 2 Maduro" as one of the "25 Best Cigars of the Year" in 2010. Like a fine wine, Punch Grand Cru rewards cigar enthusiasts with an indulgent flavorful taste to be savored.
