Market name: Lanceros.
Factory name: Laguito No. 1.

Tasting notes:
Fine vitola with character, correct combustibility, exuding the distinctive aromas inherent to the identity of Cuban dark tobacco.
Draw: excellent.
Combustion: perfect.

Excellent Habano to enjoy for about 80 minutes.

The complexity of its aroma and flavor develops towards roasted expressions, black pepper and wood. A balanced and delicate Habano typical of the Línea Clásica of Cohiba.

Suggested pairing to be enjoyed with high-end spirits such as Cuban rums or whisky.

So that’s where all the CoLa have gone. What’s the over/under on price? $15k?

Wow. Really what a great tasting note. If only our members here could do better, on any given day of the week.

Wonder if these are the same blend as the regular production CoLa?

I'm thinking pricing is going to be $55K+. At least they have "correct combustion" and include "dark tobacco".

Calling 128 Chinese suckers!

For anyone who doubts HSA is really just a packaging company.

[Chitmo]

Well out of 8 billion ish people they should be able to find 128 suckers easy enough. 

[Fugu]

Did not expect to ever (have to) see a foot-banded CoLa. Really, they don’t spare us nothing...

I’m guessing a cash out refi is required for one of those 😁. That is certainly a gorgeous presentation.

I’ll send you another Epi 2 if you keep that up. 🤣

[Chas.Alpha]

After watching the marketing video I’ve decided that I NEED one of those. And I need TS to bring it to me!😀

Good luck with either of those 

[Nevrknow]

Even IF I had enough money to make the Rothchilds say “ Damn he’s loaded! “

No way in hell. Love to see one in person tho.

” That’s nice. I have something to sell you. “

😂😂

Word on the street is these are the same as the regular production cigars. At least they didn't say it had 15 year old leaf and double medio tiempo. Strength: medium to strong. Ruh-roh Shaggy. The video looks like an introduction to a 007 film. John
