My Father Tabacos Baez Serie S.F.
The My Father Tabacos Baez Serie S.F. is a Nicaraguan puro that brings the legendary craftsmanship of José “Pepin” Garcia to an accessible price point through innovative Cuban sandwich construction. Blended and rolled at the renowned My Father Cigars factory in EstelÃ, Nicaragua, this cigar combines short and long filler tobaccos sourced from the same premium plants used in My Father’s top tier lines, delivering a medium bodied profile of coffee, earth, leather, and cedar that smokes remarkably close to its pricier siblings. The Serie S.F. stands as the first Cuban sandwich brand created by My Father Cigars, proving that exceptional flavor and value can coexist.
Pepin Garcia drew on his Cuban heritage for this blend, employing the traditional “sandwich” technique that wraps short filler tobaccos within long filler leaves to create a consistent, smooth smoking experience at a fraction of typical premium pricing. The blend is described as an extension and modified version of the award winning My Father Le Bijou series, sharing genetic DNA with one of the most acclaimed cigars in the industry. A glistening Nicaraguan Habano wrapper and matching binder complete the construction, lending depth and an inviting natural sweetness to every draw.
Presented in a striking 20 count cabinet with vivid green and gold accents, the Serie S.F. delivers shelf appeal that belies its budget friendly positioning. Reviewers consistently praise these cigars for performing well beyond their price, with construction, burn, and flavor rivaling cigars that cost several times more. Whether stocking a humidor for daily enjoyment, sharing with friends at gatherings, or pairing with morning coffee on the golf course, the Tabacos Baez Serie S.F. earns its place as a go to everyday smoke from one of the best factories in the industry.

Flavor Profile
The cigar opens with smooth coffee bean notes and toasted earth that establish the medium bodied character from first light. Black pepper provides a lively introduction that settles quickly into the blend’s comfortable rhythm. The Nicaraguan Habano wrapper contributes natural sweetness and a hint of spice that frames the opening third.
As the smoke progresses, leather and cedar emerge with nuances of walnut and gentle spice. The creamy texture becomes more apparent in the middle portion, highlighting the balance between boldness and finesse that the Garcia family has perfected. Earthy depth grounds the profile while a velvety smoothness keeps each draw inviting and comfortable.
The finish delivers a sweet, bitter consistency with lingering coffee and cedar that fades cleanly. Some smokers detect dark chocolate and anise undertones depending on smoking pace. The profile maintains its medium bodied character throughout without significant strength increases, making the Serie S.F. a calm, assured smoke suitable for any time of day.
Construction and Smoking Experience
Despite the mixed filler construction, the Serie S.F. consistently outperforms expectations with reliable burn, satisfying draw, and surprisingly durable ash. The high ratio of long filler within the Cuban sandwich blend contributes to performance that rivals many 100% long filler cigars. Reviewers regularly note that the draw and burn are so smooth and consistent you would swear this is a pure long filler cigar.
The oily Habano wrapper presents well with a velvety brown color that indicates proper processing and quality leaf selection. Smoke output is good, filling the room with a pleasant woody aroma. The medium body and approachable strength make this an ideal companion for extended sessions without palate fatigue.

Burned well. The draw was a little tight, but not problematic. Smoke production was moderate. The profile opened with wood and some cedar. Not much pepper except on the retrohale. The aromas gradually morphed into earth and leather, but otherwise was one dimensional. Overall it’s not a great cigar, but smokes a lot better than you would expect from one costing $3.

Not bad at all. I would put this in league with the series P from Tatuaje, one of the best bang for your buck cuban sandwiches out there. What’s more, the price from Oxford is fantastic. If you’re just looking to cheaply fill your humidor or share with some non-aficionado friends this is a good choice.

Hard to beat for the price… even if it is short filler. Getting good flavors from this stick and below a $4 price point!
