Cuban Maduro

[atbat82]

I was wondering today, why aren't there more Cuban Maduro cigars? I know Cohiba has a few, but why no other marcas? Do they take longer to make? Is it something with the Cuban leaf?

Maybe fermentation and aging time? Also, I believe you need a hefty leaf to withstand the maduro fermentation process; maybe Cuba doesn't many strong candidates for that.

I don't recall bring blown away by the Cohiba maduros, though.

Not many CC fans who appreciate heavily leaning NC type notes in their Cubans is all

I preordered a box of the new Partagas maduro a few weeks ago. Don't expect much as the Cohiba maduros were not a good buy

Lol then why buy them? Newness?

Many of the early ELs had what could almost be considered a "maduro" wrapper. Fresh, I thought their flavor was dominated by the wrapper, and I wasn't a fan. Still not a big fan of the Cohibas, and not expecting much from the Partagas.

Because maduro is a marketing scheme thought up by nc companies to promote their product as better than cc. And the Cubans quality control won't let them chemically darken and over ferment the leaf.

Well I was interested but $16 per?? No thank you!! I honestly don't know why I'm surprised I always hate the pricing of LEs/REs. Rarely worth the coin for me.

Nah

But in the interest of useless debate that I've nothing further to use to backup, yes.
