First off I have to give a huge "Thank You" to Mike for sending me a selection of La Luna's product.

Wow, this little pc just made waking up on Saturday a pleasure. I hopped in the ole car and just drove around town with huge clouds of smoke rolling out my open windows. I've got two more LL's to smoke, but this first one has absolutely proven to me why everyone raves about these gars. Fantastic, wonderful, complex taste that had me burning my lips by the end just to try and get some more. So far this weekend I've had a Bahia Gold Maduro pc and a Puros Indios petit perla, the La Luna puts them both to shame. Now I have to find a way to convince all the local cigar shops to start carrying the line.

That one's a little fire-plug of flavour. Quite a punch, especially for the first cigar of the day!

Nice review. My guess is you will be able to buy them cheaper directly from Gael @ La Luna than via a local store.

oh yea, and another thing, compare the La Luna price of about $3 a cigar vs. the ones you listed. The LLMF is one of the best values out there.

Gael does a great job with both lines. One of the more consistant smokes out there, and damn good ones too.

The one I had is Colada LHB from cigarbid.com
The flavor is very good, only thing is it gets so hot after a few puff!

A box of BPC: $160, A box of RyJ Caz: $180, Tiffany Cutter: $250, Max out my Credit Card Overlimit fee: $25, A night w/ fine Cuban Smoke & Spinning Head: Priceless!

I have not ever had a bad La Luna! They are always in my non-ISOM rotation. My favorit is the African Fuerte.
