The flavors are similar but the LHC has more of the baking spice flavor with a bit less of the sweet cocoa... kind of a dry cocoa. It's not as predominant. Also a bit more floral strength in it.

Think the Diesel UC and AAA with slight changes to the strength of certain flavors and smoother smoke.

Sorry... I'm not very good at reviewing or putting these tastes and textures into writing.
Max and Mac, that's perfect thank you guys. Max, your review is great, stop doubting yourself.

Had a CAO Criollo rubusto and it hit the swet tooth spot. If you like sweet and hints of citrus then you'll love this one! I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's definitely a medium / medium stick - which is out of character for me. It felt "light" almost airy... But sweet and citrusy. Not a constant annoying sweet... But a hint that just tempts the palate for more. I would call this stick "refreshing." it was well complimented by my Jefferson Reserve Bourbon Barrel Stout beer.

I later smoke a Padilla 1932 torpedo. It has been a while since I smoked a 1932 torpedo (usually get rubustos) and I was disappointed until the very middle of the second third. I don't recall the start to this stick being so "blah" and thin smoked... Perhaps it is a dud or the shape interfering with the smoke. Either way it wasn't doing well until the middle of the second third. That's when the flavor started rolling. Unfortunately I had to toss it as we were leaving the park to head home. Thankfully I have more torpedos at home and I'll try another in a few days to see if this one today was a dud.

Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 Petite Corona

Pretty darn good smoke to end the day. Sat under my carport and watched the lightning show of a summer storm that passed through. Wanted a short smoke and this one did the trick. About 45mins of goodness. Learned to smoke smaller RG slower to avoid bitterness and heat.

Today, I had three, cause it's the weekend. My first cigar of the day was an Anejo No. 46 at Neptune's B&M. If any of you guys are around in Miami and are done visiting Little Havana's factories, I suggest you drop by here, it's definitely a nice lounge. The second cigar of the day was a Padron 1964 Principe Maduro in my porch. My last cigar of the day was a Padilla Miami Robusto.
