I've burned a few more of these lately and they are just as good. They have actually gotten a bit stronger in the Nic compartment.

I have a bundle of the robusto and a few singles of the Gran toro. They were sold out of the Gran Corona before i got any. That sucks because that size is right in my wheel house. This is the first time I read your review and its spot on. I also noted that cream and fruit flavor. Ive tried to figure it out but just cant put my finger on it. I smoked another one not to long ago myself and they are better than I remember. Glad i have a full bundle of the robustos hiding as they are now sold out as well.

I can hook you up. I'm really curious as to when the full production will come out. After a bit of research I found that they also have ties to My Cuban Wheel as well. And I can see that as they share some of the qualities , not sure if its the wrapper or not but they remind me of each other.

I have been eyeing up those MCW. I might have to pull the trigger if they are anything like the La Tribu

Just a heads up. Ive ordered these on a few occasions and everytime they seem to be pretty wet when i get them and they dont burn right. A few weeks in the humi or dry box them seems to do the trick nicely.

I Agree, Brother! Smoke Lasted 1.5 Hours For Me & I Smoke Quickly. My Knees Were A Little Wobbly After I Finished & I'm Used To Strong Cigars!

I have to agree with you Greg. I smoked the toro version when I was camping last week and it has not slowed down one step! It hides that kick very well.
