I think this is from the LVH line.

The cigar has a nice pre-light aroma. Nothing special when lit, but did perform OK. Nice volume of smoke. I must admit it is a pretty good looking cigar.

Flavor is very bland and one dimensional. Started to draw really hard about half way.
Had to throw in the towel here.

Not too much good to say. Don't think it is even worthy of a second shot.

Ugh, that makes me upset. I have a 10 pack of the leather ones in my cooler now.

No don't get upset. I've gone through about 5 or 6 boxes of the LVH and find them to be a good solid cigar for the money. It's not going to set the world on fire - but it's not a dog rocket either.
I have never paid regular price for them - normally getting them on specials for $20 something a box.

LVH puts out a few different lines-the one reviewed looked like LVH The Early Years-they also make the Leather Patch mentioned by big frank & the standard LVH mixed fill line in a bunch of different wrappers-easy to confuse 'em all since they all start w/LVH!

Give 'em another shot after a few months in the humi. The LVH Early Years are a nice maddie.
P.S. to BigFrank--the LVH Leather Patch are good sticks IMO. The robustos are the bomb-diggity. :ss

Thanks for the additional information. I had this stick around forever (over a year I think) and just pulled it out to give it a try.
