Las Cabrillas - anyone know these?

Dani was just gifted this by a guest at the hotel she works at. Not a lot of provenance other than it smells FANTASTIC.

Anyone know anything about these?

7 1/2 in length...gonna guess a mid/high 50s ring gauge. Man does it smell good. Debating just smoking the thing or freezing and storing for a bit.

Those are made in Honduras with Mexican filler and binder with Connecticut shade wrapper. If you like Te-Amo's you will enjoy this cigar. If it smells good now I'd fire it up.

Agreed. JR Cigars has been selling them for years.

A friend of mine and me used to be quite fond of them 12 years ago or so. They were a good smoke for the price at a now out of business B&M that we used to frequent. I haven't smoked one in over 12 years. We have thought about revisiting them to see if we still like them, but haven't got around to it yet.

Thanks guys. I'll burn it tonight. Maybe I'll do a review. The reviews on the sites that actually sell them don't seem super positive but, I'm willing to sacrifice my taste buds to further the knowledge of the blessed leaf. You can thank me later.
