El Presidente Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 I have only had two but I was blown away. Those that have smoked them ...weigh in ken and I to do a video review on these shortly. Many thanks for your input 2
Fugu Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 If they are blended and made of the same tobacco quality as current reyes and Coloniales and provided decent, compact construction - they will be winners, and I am looking forward to be blown away, too.
Jfeath74 Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 I normally wouldn’t chime in as I have not tried one, but hand to god I’m sitting next to a guy at a lounge in New York smoking one as I type this. He comes in after me and pulls out a La Trova and sits it in the ashtray. I say “that is a very nice cigar you have there” he responds in a heavy Russian accent “legit Cuban, the very best”. He continues to take a call on speaker phone and then watches videos on his phone with the sound blaring in Russian, so take this for what it’s worth. I couldn’t resist, I had to ask him “how’s the La Trova?” He responds “legit Cuban, the very best”. I sit here with my mind blown! Again for what it’s worth, I got a good look at it and it appears immaculate, I hope to try one soon! 3

A real cigar smoker would somehow comunicate with you.
Hoepssa Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Had one 10 days ago, lovely smoke but different taste from Fumadores/Reyes, lighter taste
Mattb82 Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Is this Cigar one that will be around a while and readily available once supply is built up or are the lcdh releases only available a specific period of time
Lotusguy Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Is this Cigar one that will be around a while and readily available once supply is built up or are the lcdh releases only available a specific period of time All past LCDH releases have been re-released (even the LGC Inmensos came back in 2017) so I am hopeful that these will stick around. 1

Wertman Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 It's 'New York probably from the UN. Peace talks settled right at the cigar bar over a Cuban trini
SMQQKIN Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Good thing he didn't offer & you accept one. It would be considered Russian collusion. 2 1
Stump89 Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 I'm probably being too nostalgic here, but I really want these to be similar to the Robusto Extra. The TRex was one of my favorite cigars of all time and I'm hoping the La Trova can fill the void. 1
anton Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Prez put some for sale so we can have an oppinion 2

Danimalia Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Yeah, he mentioned they will be up more often here in the New Year. I’d expect some up soon.
Danimalia Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Yo Hutch I’ll send you a PM just to make sure I’m on the right side of the forum law when discussing prices
Corylax18 Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Anymore recent input on these? I'm heading to Havana in about 6 weeks and hoping I see these somewhere around.
