    Im a rookie in the cigar world and bought the Connecticut blend, smoking it while I watched this video. These review videos yall do are fantastic and really help to identify the profile of the cigars. Looking forward to my next cigar and video review session.

    La Aroma De Cuba's and any My Father related cigars are just fantastic. I was a Perdomo guy for many years. I still like them, but Pepin Garcia is the leader right now IMO. Excellent video guys.

      Without a doubt. Was one of the first cigars I ever smoked, and was the first box I bought myself. The broadleaf. But man the whole line is good

    The La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor is hands down my favorite cigar or all time - I had no idea they made one with a Connecticut wrapper, going to have to try this one out. Incredible reviews as always, can't wait for the next one!

      Same here buddy. The Mi Amor is a favorite of mine. Love the fluid smoothness and taste.

    • @holtscigars
      @holtscigars  4 місяці тому +2

      Mi Amor is a different blend than Connecticut, but definitely worth a try. La Aroma de Cuba Original and Connecticut are the same blend with different wrappers

  • @CigarAttache
    @CigarAttache 4 місяці тому +2

    @Slasherx28 4 місяці тому +6

    First! Another good day when a notification for a new Holts video arrives!
    I wasn’t a fan of the original when I first started smoking. Maybe I’ll give it a try since my palette has developed.

    Definitely works in the category as “when you don’t know what to smoke.” Sometimes you open up the humidor, start checking drawers… then it beeps at you because of temp and humidity changing while you’re looking 🙄 … that’s why I grabbed this one today. Not spicy, goes great with coffee 👍 Always get my sticks through Holt’s. What a nice bunch of folks !

    I've had all of the LADC line except for the brand new Noblesse. My list is: Mi Amor, Reserva, Connecticut, Pasion, Original, EE. After reading the write up on the Noblesse, my guess is it will end up in the top 3.

  • @nathanhawee5373
    @nathanhawee5373 4 місяці тому +1

    The broadleaf was the first box I bought about a yr ago when I first started in cigars. And like perdomo and foundation are phenomenal! But if you don't eat.. I'm sick forsure. But man I can smoke the aroma de cuba b.L. everyday. That zesty flavor is on piont. And yes across the variety, they are constant smokes.

  • @vfigueroa62

    The La Aroma de Cuba red band is a top cigar for me, I have enjoyed many. The Connecticut was surprisingly the most peppery Connecticut I have ever had. Are all La Aroma de Cuba cigars Cuban seed? I suspect the answer is yes 😂.

    Anthony, I know this is off subject to this video, which by the way I watch every video you guys do that I can find, I saw your video about Don Pepin blue label and you said it was their foundation blend, could you do a video just on foundation blends for 5 or 6 companies that you regularly feature with the Cigar that represents that foundation blend, thanks, Eric
