If you haven't, you should.

I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce the group to Luis Sanchez of La Tradicion Cubana Inc. in Florida and Dominica.
I met him 8 years ago in Aruba when he was flown down to hand roll for a golf tournament pre-party. He and his beautiful assistants were quite busy making some of the tastiest cigars I've ever had the pleasure to draw on.
I travel to China 8 months out of the year and he keeps me stocked with great smokes as the cigars in China are generally fake and very spendy.
Please visit his site at

This is an honest endorsement and not an ad. I just received a box of Corona Gordas and a box of Churchills and can't wait to get to China to smoke them. The wife hates that I enjoy these so I just keep them for use out of town.

Try them, you will like them.

 

[THEMISCHMAN]

Has anyone else tried these? They look pretty good. I like the looks of the LTC Figurado series. Prices don't seem bad either.

 

[Colonel Lingus]

Oh the Corona Gorda's are a delight! A Churchill is next.

 

[THEMISCHMAN]

I sent a message to them from their website to see if I could put together a custom sampler. I told them I heard about them here. Hopefully, I hear back from them.

 

[Colonel Lingus]

Call them up. Luis will take personal care. When I buy and ask about other smokes he generally throws a couple others in for tasting.
Tell him Jonathan from China sent you.

 

[The Munt]

Dam they do look good.
Same here those LTC figurados look tasty. I will have to get me a box next pay cycle.

 

[THEMISCHMAN]

Just placed my order earlier today. Luis was a super friendly guy and a lot of help. Hopefully the cigars smoke as good as they look.

Keep us posted on your thoughts once you try them out!

 

[Mr. McSquirelly]

Thanks for the tip, Jon. I will place an order and say that you referred me. Cigars look really good.

 

[Colonel Lingus]

I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Luis has something for everybody.
I back in China now and just last, night put a fiery and glorious end to one of his Tradicion Cubana Churchills.
Nub pics to follow.

 

[THEMISCHMAN]

So I got my order from LTC the other day. These cigars look very good and I'm looking forward to trying them.
First up is the, Santos de Miami. Nice box press and pig tail.


The next ones are the La Tradicion Cubana Chulo Figurado. About the size of a Mode 5.

Here we have the JML Churchill

LTC Lancero

Lastly, the Sabor Cubana


Luis did a great job putting a package together for me.

 

[Colonel Lingus]

Here is my first nubbed LTC Churchill. Good to the last drop. The cornfork nub tool works very well.

 

[Colonel Lingus]

It fell off two puffs later! LTC Churchill

Those look nice.

 

[Colonel Lingus]

Samb,
Give Luis a call and have him set you up. You won't regret it.

Smoked my first one tonight. LTC Chulo, really good cigar and great price too. Nice creamy smoke with some subtle coffee and floral notes.
