LHC Core

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.

thebayratt · 05-28-2011, 07:58 PM

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

cobra03 · 05-29-2011, 12:26 AM

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

d'am · 06-18-2011, 11:10 AM

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

dwoodward · 06-20-2011, 01:27 PM

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.

BlackIrish · 06-20-2011, 06:31 PM

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.

Dunkel · 06-20-2011, 07:51 PM

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.

Fordman4ever · 06-20-2011, 09:20 PM

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

Thanks for the review. Intrigued now.

Remo · 06-21-2011, 03:16 PM

Thanks Clancy, great review

Skywalker · 06-21-2011, 04:57 PM

Sweet review Clancy!

Dunkel · 06-25-2011, 08:10 PM

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.
