After many recomendations and high marks in reviews, I got my hands on one at the local B&M. From there it sat in my humidor for two weeks and today I unleashed the beast.

This thing looks beautiful. Not much is known about the cigar itself from what I could find, other than it sports a limited quantity Brazilian Oscuro wrapper and the best rollers for Drew are picked for this piece making it an extremely limited product. I would guess it has a Nicaraguan fill.

Upon lighting, it booms...I mean BOOMS smoke. You could flag down a rescue chopper via smoke signals with this thing. Call me nuts but I love that. The visual is just very appealing to me. The aroma is a rich classic cigar tobacco smell. Very nice. The smoke itself is super, super smooth. Not an ounce of harshness. The Flavors are mellow yet pronounced if that's even possible. Tobacco, leather and coffee from start to finish. Not a single burn correction. Slow burn, I got almost 2 hrs out this where most cigars of this size I sample give me 1:15 to 1:30.

Price point ranges from $11 and change at CI to $13 at the local shop. This is the first cigar I've ever had where I came away saying "I'd pay for this regardless of price." I'd gladly pay $20 for this selection, let alone $13 or $11. I've sampled a few cigars over $10 that I said "They're good, but I wouldn't pay this much. I'll take 'em as gifts or in a sampler." Not so with #9. The best cigar I've ever had surplanting the Perdomo Noir. Because of price, I'll smoke the Noir more often. But I will definately make it point to keep a few of these around for the every now and then smoke.

Nice review...these are excellent sticks. :dr :dr

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

I love big smoke. I notice that about many of the better rolled Drew stuff.

Nice Review!

Love me some 9s!!! :dr:dr

For being such a newb it was great for me to experience this smoke so early on. I split a box with a fellow BOTL a little while back and am going to let them rest for a bit. I don't know what if anything will surpass it as my #1 favorite!

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

Thank you very much for the review. I have two of these sitting in my humidor might have to smoke one this week.

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

Hands down the only cigar that has blown me away. Great review I agree with everything you wrote!

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

Thanks for review.

Nice review. Thanks.

Close, you have a very good palate to be able to pick that up. It's actually a Conneticut broadleaf #1 dark (Oscuro) capa, plantation grown Brazilian matafina capote and 4 Nicaraguan + 1 Honduran leaf tripa.

And, yes, Jon, Saka and Nicholas only have their best rolling teams making these.

Thank you :D.

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

Have a couple resting in my humidor. Looking forward to trying it out.

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

One of the best cigars out there IMHO. DE knocked it out of the park with this one.

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

sounds like a great stick. Heading to the local b&m to try one. Love a good amount of smoke myself.

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

Absolutely love these sticks! Great review man, glad you got to try it...I'm sure it sitting in your humidor for 2 weeks was driving you nuts!

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

You're making it hard for me to leave the one I have in my humidor alone. I only picked it up a few days ago and would like to let it sit but man, I may not be able to. :r

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

Great Review Of One Of My Fav's! :) :tu

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

Thanks for the review, these are great. And I love how much smoke the LP's put off as well.

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

I got wind that one of the very small local Liquor stores in the area has a fwew of these. Not sure if the story is true, but im heading by there today to find out. If its true, its mine.

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

Lucky to find a box left on the shelf after trying these. Love them!

Re: Liga Privada 9 52x6
 

These are tasty...have a couple still in the cooler!
