Great review on a damn tasty cigar

If you like the robusto then you must try the Perla.

review from a few months ago:

This was my first Don Pepin Garcia ever, a gift from my cigarbuddy Smokey, and he told me that I would love this cigar. He was right. The 1979 is a robusto size cigar, 127 mm long with a 50 ring made out of Nicaraguan tobacco with a dark corojo ’99 wrapper. The aroma is deep dark manure and the wrapper looks great, silky smooth with hardly any veins. The predraw is fine, with some fruity flavors, which I have never tasted in a cigar before.

The first flavor are wood with some wild summer fruit on the background. The fruit flavors become stronger while the wood disappears. There is a slight hint of chocolate noticeable which slowly grows in strength. Approximately halfway the cigar the fruit flavor disappears and some nutty flavors surface soon to be followed by some white pepper.

This cigar produces lots and lots of smoke and strong straight ashes. I do realize that this review makes the cigar sound a little weird, fruity & nutty, but it’s the best way to describe the flavors.

Would I buy this cigar again? Yes, I want some boxes of this cigar.

Love the perlas! Been thinking about pulling the trigger at CI's Make an offer for the robustos.

My first purchased box was this a couple weeks ago (noob). Still have yet to burn one though. This weekend we have a date!

Sounds tasty! Gonna have to get a few!

I had one from my box when I was playing 9 holes with the boy. Wasn't the greatest experience I've had with this cigar, but still, wasn't that bad for the links!
