HL Maduro sounds pretty awesome. I'll try the candela. Always wondered if a candela could be good.

I'm not sure I like the idea of replacing the Domenicos with a new, larger ring-gauge version. I always liked the original Domenicos because it was a true Corona Gorda, which, IMO, is the best size vitola.

I don't like Candela at all, but I will try this one at least once.

Candela wrappers are teh suck, imho, but if someone was to put together a good candela blend, it'd be illusione. I'm exctied for this release. Hopefully I'll be able to find (and afford) one!

Camacho has a decent candela.

I am VERY curious about this HL candela. Its a hard wrapper to make it smoke tasty IMO. That being said....I couldn't imagine him putting out something bad.

Amen.

Everybody knocks Candelas, and I am also in that camp, as they are hard to do. Camacho has one that is pretty good, and JR Ultimates had the Principales in a candela that was also quite good. Yes, they are rather mild, and the wrapper really doesn't contribute a whole lot, but they can be good.

If they couldn't be good, would they even be considering this whole idea?

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Double Amen

I just can't see him putting out something just for the sake of putting it out.

We shall see I suppose...

I don't like this either. The corona gorda is my favorite size.
