Volado/Seco Quality however is another issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the quality of the Seco leaf is really what sets Cuban cigars apart from Non Cubans. The best stuff has a lot of Flavor with out that mouth burning ligero strength. 10 minutes ago, El Presidente said: You can certainly get it. Volado/Seco Quality however is another issue This is the key. I doubt Cuba is exporting much, if any, Vuelta Abajo leaf. But why not sell some of the stuff from Remedios or Oriente that would be going into peso cigars any way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzboypro Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 It looks to me as if the box was a bit to big. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nKostyan Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I liked their previous blend with Cuban tobacco. One problem: they never learned how to roll perfecto. Why choose a format that factory can't roll in high quality… Perhaps the name of this release should be "Dostoevsky. Idiot"… 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinny Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 I feel like they missed an opportunity to put an ak-47 somewhere on the label or even cooler have the cigar box look like an old Russian ammo crate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
