La Aroma de Cuba Pasión

Holt's Staff Reviews · Sep 23, 2021

I’m smoking a Box-Pressed Torpedo called La Aroma de Cuba Pasión – a brand new cigar headed to retailers across the country as I write this. If you’re eagerly searching for a sublime new blend to smoke, consider today’s review essential reading. Pasión is blended by the celebrated father-and-son team, José ‘Pepin’ Garcia and Jaime Garcia, who produce the historic La Aroma de Cuba portfolio in addition to their lauded My Father brand. “In my home, we only speak tobacco,” explained Jaime Garcia in a 2007 interview with Cigar Aficionado.

La Aroma de Cuba is a brand that has been around since 2002 and is one that has been a “go-to” for me, ever since the Mi Amor hit the shelves. Geez, I just love the Mi Amor. The brand, which is part of the Ashton cigars portfolio, has been rather quiet the last few Read more about Cigar Review: La Aroma de Cuba Pasión Encanto – Rated 95[…]

La Aroma de Cuba Pasión Box-Pressed Torpedo

Halfwheel · Nov 11, 2021 · Sept. 14, 2021

I should start by saying, I think this is a solid cigar that got punished for a variety of small things: balance, a few touch-ups and a slightly open draw. Flavor-wise, all the pieces are here. But even before the final sample delivered enough nicotine that I needed to lie down, I was of the opinion that this cigar was just a bit too aggressive right now for my liking. This—particularly after the first third—reminds me of the pepper-forward Pepín blending profile that was oftentimes talked about a decade or so ago. It’s a style of cigar that I don’t think is representative of most of the new cigars that come from the My Father Cigars S.A. factory these days, though it’s certainly still a part of some of the older blends. I’m curious to see what a few months of rest might do to the cigar as there are plenty of interesting flavors that at times can get a bit too sharp, though that’s not my largest issue with the La Aroma de Cuba Pasión. For me, the main question is whether this is noticeably different than the other La Aroma de Cubas—and to a lesser extent San Cristobals—that Ashton already sells. While I don’t think I’d have any issue telling this and a La Aroma de Cuba Edición Especial apart, I don’t think they are that different and I’m not sure I’d pick up these nuances if not smoking this cigar for the review. With the exception of the La Aroma de Cuba Noblesse—which I think is an obvious more complex blend—the Pasión ends up being just a bit more expensive than the other La Aroma de Cubas, and I’m not sure how many people will be able to notice the differences.

La Aroma de Cuba Pasion Corona Gorda

Developing Palates · Jan 19, 2022 · September 2021

I can’t remember the last La Aroma de Cuba that I enjoyed this much. What a great Nicaraguan puro. Balanced blend with enjoyable flavors from start to finish. Great construction as well. My Father has released two Nicaraguan puros recently that have caught my attention. I like what I am seeing. I want more! I will definitely be coming back to this La Aroma de Cuba Pasion Corona Gorda.

La Aroma de Cuba (outside US: del Caribe) Pasión Box-Pressed Torpedo

Cigar Journal · Dec 24, 2022 · Top 25 of 2022: The Complete List (Rank #18)

Creamy wood, toast and nut aromas unfold over the vegetal note that is retronasally noticeable, with a fruity sweetness and a peppery spice. An elegant-looking cigar with great tower of ash.
