I saw these in the new Cigar.com catalog I got in the mail the other day. While I would like to try one as I'm a fan of the LHC Oscuro Fuerte, I'm not a fan of the price of the Core. $159.95 a box for 20 Robustos? $100 a box more than the Oscuro Fuerte Robusto and it's a smaller Robusto than the LHCOF. I think I'll wait until a few trusted BOTL post a few reviews.

I'm gonna be waiting right there with ya Doug. $ 12.00 a stick for an LHC??? :-) :-)

They sound and look nice, but too pricy for my empty wallet.

I think I'll stick with the MOW Puros.... At half the cost, they are good in my book!
[Reply]

Yeah i saw those in the catalog myself. They do look pretty good but not at those prices.

I just got a couple of them in a sampler from cigar.com. I'll let ya know by weeks end how they are.

Sweet, I have been waiting for a review of these :-)

As usual, they've been going for less than half of the regular price on cbid. Of course, cbid gets very expensive in other ways :-)

The regular LHCs are pretty good deals, but I'm also going to wait for a couple of reviews before trying these. AJ has enough of a reputation to keep me interested. I just hope the guy isn't wasting his hard-earned capital on overpriced CI exclusives.

I agree with everyone else on this one. Im gonna wait on these. Im a big fan of the oscuro fuertes, would love to try one of these but, as everyone else said they are a bit too pricy.

I would have reviewed one this afternoon, however I smoked a LHC Toro after a morning round of golf on an empty stomach, and I still have jelly knees. lol

Saw them posted to facebook. I'd be tempted to try some samples, but I would never pay 12 bucks any stick no matter who makes it.

It's the same drill they've done so many times before. Wait 6 months and you'll be able to get them for a sensible price, I suspect.

I picked up a fiver for under $26 on C bid the other day. I'll try one ROTT and post here with my thoughts.

they are on cbid's free fall auction right now.

I smoked one while fishing this morning. It was nothing special. The wrapper is very thin. The cap basically self destructed when I cut it with my Palio. While smoking it several small cracks appeared in the wrapper. It tasted good but wasn't amazing or anything. I liked it better than the regular LHC, but not nearly as much as I like the LHCOF.
