the new cubans?

[Everon]

In Russia free access to Cuban cigars - so historically.
But now it is full scrap-heap. Ligadory in Cuba that became extinct - all for one cigar
taste. Lights Cuban cigar very poorly and unevenly. The abhorrent hand joint ... And it is 100% real cigars from La Casa del Habano and other stores.

В России свободный доступ к кубинским сигарам - так исторически сложилось.
Но теперь это полная помойка. Лигадоры на кубе будто вымерли - все сигары на один
вкус. Горит кубинская сигара очень плохо и неровно. Отвратительная ручная скрутка... И это 100% настоящие сигары из La Casa del Habano и др. магазинов.

I have been talking to people at the local B&M's and a lot of people are telling me that a lot of Cubans are not as good as they once were and that quality control has slipped over the years etc, I am still new so I can't give a personal opinion but I was wondering what you guys think and if they are not the top of the line anymore who do you think are making the new quality cigars. In other works who compares to the Cuban cigars of old?

The massive limitado's and regionals are mostly top notch.

I find that the limitados and regional release cigars are not similar to the regular production line. Boli RE's haven't tasted like regular production releases, etc. I don't know if this is deliberate or not, but there is a certain part of me that is bothered by that. Boli's should taste like boli's, RyJ's should taste like RyJ's. I have also found they have been hit or miss. Some have been GREAT, others a flop imho.
