New La Aroma de Cuba?

[whodeeni]

Only one of the sizes is box-pressed, the Magnifico. I was very surprised how good it was/is because I usually don't care for cigars with "Mexican" wrappers.

The Mi Amor is a damn fine cigar in my opinion.

My robusto is box-pressed Larry...

I believe the Churchill and Valentino are the only sizes not box pressed, but I could be very wrong here.

Damn fine cigar tho, my favorite thing coming out of IPCPR 2010

I only picked up one of them when I initially saw the Mi Amor at my local shop, at least more than the EE.

The Aroma "new blend" is amazing...
this Mi Amor, does nothing for me!!

How would you say the La Aroma De Cuba new blend compares to the old for their original line? I remember hearing some people complain saying that the old was better.

I have to say the Amor is an outstanding cigar. So many interesting flavors to keep you interested. I vote this easily in the top 5 of new releases this year. This is also a great example of a cigar that should age very well

The Mi Amor is definitely one of my favorites right now. Loving the sweetness in these; not too much, just enough to keep you wanting more. I'm having a hard time not buying a box of these right now.

Just had a Mi Amor that a buddy gave me. It was a very nice smoke. I will probably buy some more next time I'm at Holt's, but I wouldn't make a special trip just to get them.

I haven't had the limited La Aroma's but the regular "new blend" La Aroma was one of the most underwhelming cigars I'd smoked in a while. It was wood and pepper and practically nothing else. The construction and burn were good but definitely not my kind of cigar.

The blends are completely different.

The Mi Amor did nothing for me at first. I bought a few different sizes and by then it grew on me. I can't get enough of them now, especially the Magnificos. If I were to compare them to anything, it wouldn't be the EE. They remind me a lot of the Padron Annivesarios without the age. Very bold.
