Taboo LR havana torpedo

I am smoking on right now - about half way through. Draw is on the tight side, but very acceptable to me. Plenty of smoke, straight burn. Great flavor - woody and a little leathery. So far, so good. Give it another shot, I am certainly digging it.

What you describe as leather tasted more like floral to me.

I enjoyed the cigar but I felt that it needed more "Pop". The flavor was a bit muted.

Interesting. I'm finishing up an LR havana Robusto (my first of any Taboo LR lines) and it's smoking very well. The flavor is very good. A citrus flavor. I can see where you'd say salty nuts too. I'd give this one (the robusto) a definite thumbs up.

I enjoyed this cigar. I didn't have any draw problems. The flavor that I kept tasting was cinnamon. I just had the LR maduro torpedo the other night and they tasted fairly similar. I'd be inclined to buy more if they were a little stronger. The SFO's I've had were strong enough but the flavor won't get me to buy more. Thanks for the review!
