2021, the Quesada family, owners, and makers of
the brand introduced the new Liga F line. The “F”

spicy mix of black pepper and cinnamon are the
prominent flavors throughout the smoke, and they

RATING

Gilbert de Montsalvat, a fictional character, was created
by Swiss entrepreneur Raymondo Bernasconi.
The silhouette on the band is, in fact, a profile shot
from Raymondo. It reveals notes of aged wood and
black pepper, with leather hints. In some puffs, you
can also perceive nuances of graphite. Balsamic
hints appear in the final part.
