| Notes: | I bought this as part of Holt's Cigar Nut Party Pack. It's a good deal when you factor in all of the cigars. But on to this one. I remember liking the La Aroma de Cuba the last time I had it. I also distinctly remember it not being the type of cigar I usually like. I was right on both accounts. It's leathery and spicy, but somehow, it just works for me in this cigar. The draw was good, but a little to tight to be perfect. Likewise the burn was good, but not perfect. The cost was hidden to me in the whole special deal, so I figured my value by using the Holt's single cigar price. At that price it's close to worth it, but not a great value. |
