Well the second Stick was a La Perla Habana - 1515. If was Ok, good construction, good burn good, good ash quality, but flavor was only so so, nothing spectacular IMHO.
Not sure I would say go get some, I have a few more in my little stash. But will save them for friends who show up without their own to smokes. As I recall the same Stick in a Torpedo was much better flavor.
Or maybe give them more time and another go on another day. Strength is medium - strong.
