Mi Havana Torpedo Pyramid Dark

Very rich in texture and aroma. Leather and wood.
Not my normal fare. I was intrigued by the shape and the 'newness' of it. Since Mi Havana bought the molds of another maker they have a new variety of shapes at their disposal
The same Cuban fold which leads me to suspect they are using a new supplier rather than any rollers at all, new rollers or just another source rather than outsourcing.
It's not what they used to make.
The same hand crafted, one off aspect. But the folding of the filler is vastly different..
A hand made cigar is usually softer. .. compresses more.  Machine made is consistently "full".
The flavor is deep, rich. More woody. A medium in strength. The smell. ..an open fire.
$7.50 at Mi Havana. ****
