in0gravity Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 Hello all, I find reviewing cigars pretty hard and admire all the wonderfull reviews published here on the forum. Hats off. This is my first review, here we go: Friday evening decided to have a Por Larranaga Magnificos. The appreance of the cigar was sensational. Dark, oily wrapper. The way it should be. Upon lighting it, the cigars was present from the get go. Flavors of nuts mixed with green tea were dominant. It had a sweet note to it. It also smelled a bit of rose flowers/vanilla. Hard to describe the scent. The cigar developed beautifully. Through the half way point the green tea flavors were pushed in the background and the nut flavors (with a hint of milk coffee) were more dominate. But still that sweet smell to it. Overall this was a great cigar. It offered everything I was looking for. Paired it with a 2007 Pinot Noir from Germany. Here are some pics:
cigarros Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 Nice looking cigar! For the first review you done great job! Thanks for sharing!
chinamike233 Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 Personally, I think that PL band is one of, if not the, best looking cigar band. It's classy!
bassman Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 Nice review. While the band is certainly magnifico, the couple cigars I've smoked have been only in the good, not great catagory. To my taste, the best PL REs are the often disparaged German Lonsdales.

craigos Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Got a box of 25 and 3 boxes of 10 --- best cigar released in the last 5 years. Fantastic cigar!
in0gravity Posted July 20, 2010 Author Posted July 20, 2010 Fully agree. Unfortunately it is only a regional release. But it would be cool if this would become a regular cigar.
BonVivant Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Fully agree. Unfortunately it is only a regional release. But it would be cool if this would become a regular cigar. We can only dream
