JOSE L. PIEDRA

José L. Piedra is a particularly noteworthy Havana not only because its blend is composed of filler tobaccos grown exclusively in the Remedios tobacco region (formerly called Vuelta Arriba), but also because it is made using the ‘totalmente a mano, tripacorta’, or ‘totally hand made, short filler’ technique.

The Piedra family came to Cuba in the 1880s from the Spanish province of Asturias. They settled near the town of Santa Clara, which lies at the heart of the Remedios region where tobacco has been grown since the 16th Century, and started to make cigars.

The family’s second generation led by José Lamadrid Piedra, whose name is commemorated today, founded and developed the brand.

All of the José L. Piedra sizes are made from Remedios tobaccos using the traditional ‘tripa corta, totalmente a mano’ – short filler, totally handmade technique.

CAZADORES

Immediately you will notice the distinct, somewhat rustic, medium to full taste of the Remedios tobaccos in these cigars. A cigar for the great outdoors.

It has a smooth and very light taste which is also a bit sweet, but gets somewhat spicy after the half. However, the flavour is just too plain for me. Draw is fairly tight, but you can work with it. Mine lasted about 30 mins. Overall, you get what you pay for, but it is a good everyday smoke for a good price.

I haven't personally tried these, yet. I did notice though (and correct me if I'm wrong, maths isn't my strong point) that as singles these go for £3.99 but in a bundle of 25 they work out at at £5.80 each! Is this right or is it a pricing error?

THIS WAS A SUPRISE. I was thinking these were not going to be great shakes. I picked some up in cuba a while ago and brilliant they were. There were fantastically inexpensive out there (£2.50). The burn was nice and even. The burn was very slow for that matter. The ash held on well. Flavour wise they were a bit bitter and grassy (young tobacco) but a pleasant flavour profile followed; light spice, cedar, coffee and weirdly mustard (gave a nice little kick). Buy some, put away for 6 months and they will be ace, authentic, cuban smokes. BA HUMBUG to those cigar snobs who turn there nose up to anything that isn't a cohiba or a trinidad (both of which i tried).

Has a really bad experience with the Cazadores, so i wasn't expecting much from this. I'm glad i wasn't. It wasn't as harsh as i'd feared, but it was totally plugged somewhere towards the head, so i had to cut it in the middle and smoke it from there. Found it to be almost just as unpleasant as the other cigar i've tried of this brand, and don't plan on trying them again.
