La Gloria Cubana Revolution 2015 - Edición Regional Asia Pacifico SGA Nov 2015

The La Gloria Cubana Revolution is an Asia Pacifico Regional Edition release that followed the Diplomaticos Bushidos. Although listed as a 2015 release, like the Bushidos, it didn't hit the market until the following year, in the case of the Revolution, around mid-2016. Following the actualised hype of the Bushidos, this was a tough act to follow. Not unsurprisingly, the Revolution is not as acclaimed as the Bushidos, but reviews haven't been that bad either, flavour-wise.

I split a box of these in 2016 with cigar enthusiasts and since it was a La Gloria Cubana vitola, I felt I really needed to give these time prior to sampling one. How did it turn out?

Similarly to other reviews on our forum, this was white-ashed, suffered construction issues and was not short on flavour. The cigar started out perfectly mild, smooth and floral but very soon after regressed into a much stronger cigar, with flavours of cream coffee, wood and lots of pepper, which suggests to me that the ligero leaves in this need more time. There was a knot of bunched leaves up one half of the cigar which induced an uneven burn and revealed some tunneling, so maintaining a consistent ash around the midway point proved difficult.

The final third saw the wrapper unbind and it was at this point that I thought it best to let it go and look forward with anticipation to the next one. And when will that be? In my mind, at the very minimum, 18 months.

A rich meal calls for a decadent cigar. ARS SEP 18 La Trova.

The scotch is more prominently displayed, but the QdO and Monte were a great combination

MSU Sep 18. Had to test one. Needs a lot more rest.

Busy first part of the day changing the water in the hot tub and then oil and spark plug in the lawnmower among other things that needed to get done.

UEB AGO 18 Dip Nortenos RE . This was very good for such a young cigar. Just a little clipped of the top.




After the old pump in the pond gave out after 17 years; got the new one up and running. Still some work to be done with the pond but so far so good.

ARG ABR 14 Sir Winnie. Near perfect construction and overall great cigar.

16 HUPC while getting the grill cleaned up to take over to our friends house to help out with their Easter party. My buddy isn’t a regular smoker but I always bring him a decent cigar. It cracks me up smoking with him because he powers through them so fast. I think he finished the RG Perlas in about 15 minutes. I had a MUR OCT 12 Superiores while grilling up some chicken and dogs for the kids.

I think he was already through the first third by the time I got to this point.

May I suggest a “jealous” button next to the heart and others. Some of the sticks posted by members today look out of this world. Anyways, today I had a RASS MEL FEB 17.

PSP PSP1 Easter smoke!

Can't believe the strength in these after 10 years on.

@JohnS can I make a suggestion?  Especially with you being a senior member and a mod.  Can you move all of your reviews to a separate page and topic.  You have great reviews and love to use them as a reference.  Would love if everything was in one spot from you so I can see.  I am sure all other members agree your awesome at reviews.

SP Non Plus, BMU JUN 13, Very salty, slightly creamy, there's no sweetness here but that's not a bad thing...

This thread is better than any cigar porn. Just saying.
