Many, many years ago the Early Years Silencios from this line were one of my go-to smokes. Then they changed the blend.

Still the original blend in '06 I believe. Like Tom, they were one of my faves back then.

Jon has had the line name around for a long time. What is sold today as LVHs is nothing like what they used to be. There were, IIRC, three lines way back when, LVH (Natural wrappers), LVH Early Years (CT. Broadleaf maduro) and LVH Leather Patch (Cameroon), blends were different for the three lines, all were long filler. What is being sold today is a mixed filler contract / exclusive cigar.

I bought a box once, and I don't know...but they were the nastiest sticks I've ever experienced.

I smoked a Maduro a few years ago and like every DE smoke I've had it was disappointing.

The LVHEY Silencios were awesome little cigars.
