Damn, I like this cigar a lot. After seeing posts from everyone who got the LCA drop, I just *had* to order 5 when they hit the shop, and I’m glad I did. Plus, I’m a sucker for a good label.
Now, I don’t know if my tastings are psychosomatic or not, but that doesn’t matter. Even Dumbledore said, “Juat because it’s happening in your head, Harry, doesn’t mean it’s not real.” Who can argue with that? So I gotta say it lives up to its Fruit Leather name.
The cold draw was light and lively, with a hint Fruit Stripe gum or Trix cereal flavors, and, of course, light leather. (Is Fruit Striped gum even still around?) The 1st and 2nd thirds were extremely pleasant with easy smoke, great draw, and a retrohale had a hint reminiscent of cola flavored candy Bottle Caps.
And the final third surpized me with more of the cold draw flavors on the inhale – yeah, on the lit cigar inhale! How does that happen? I don’t know, and I don’t care, ‘cos it was awesome.
So, take my review for what it’s worth: nothing. I’m no expert, I don’t play a cigar smoker on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. I’m just some dude with ancient referneces who has 4 more of these in his humidor, and I’m really looking forward to smoking them.
Rated 5 out of 5
