La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor

This is the second one of these that I have bought. I loved them both. Like the first, I also bought this one at W. Curtis Draper Tobacconist in D.C..

I smoked it at Shelly's Backroom in D.C. after eating, what is becoming my favorite sandwich of theirs, the Roast Beef dip.

It is a great looking cigar with a very dark rapper. Construction was perfect. I straight cut it as paired it with Bud Light. After lighting it was a little peppery at first. The draw was awesome. Even though there was one hell of a breeze from the air conditioning, it burned perfectly.

I love this cigar.Shortly after lighting the peppery bite went away. It was a perfect medium strength cigar for me. And a very nice medium flavor.

From Cigar.com:

Handcrafted under the supervision of Don Pepin Garcia in Nicaragua, La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor is an excellent cigar, blended to create a complex experience that completely satisfies your entire palate.

La Aroma de Cuba is an old-time brand with a unique and dedicated following. The blends under this line all maintain light complexities while remaining medium-bodied to create a balanced experience between strength and flavor. Now made in Nicaragua at Don Pepin Garcia's new factory, the La Aroma de Cuba brand remains consistent from start to finish and features some of the best tobaccos money can buy.

Mi Amor is simply an excellent addition to the La Aroma line. The blend brings a full-flavored but medium-bodied maduro to the mix and creates a hearty finish. Outside, you'll find a dark Cuban-seed Mexican maduro wrapper that conceals a flavorful concoction of Nicaraguan long leaves from Nicaragua's top growing regions. As the blend burns, you'll find espresso and coffee-like flavors throughout, all masked by earthy undertones and notes of black pepper. With a smooth, creamy smoke and long-lasting finish, expect Mi Amor to increase in strength from head to foot while still producing a well-balanced finish that you'll want to experience again and again.
