La Aroma de Cuba: Mi Amor Reserva Pomposo Cigars

The original Mi Amor was released by La Aroma de Cuba in 2010, receiving solid reviews. Now Jose and Jaime Garcia seek to offer a richer, more complex rendition, in the form of the Mi Amor Reserva. Judging by reviews, they've certainly succeeded.

Presentation-wise, it's a beauty: the extra-dark, Mexican-grown, Cuban-seed Habano wrapper providing plenty of contrast for the colorful old-school Cuban-style bands. With filler and binder from Nicaragua, the flavors of the smoke are abundant, from earthy cocoa, to subtle spice, and all offered up cool and rich.
