Saturday I had time to enjoy a cigar so I pulled out a La Rosa Especial (the only one in my humidor, must have received in a trade). It had a tissue paper wrap on it and appeared to be contructed very well. I cut it and took a test draw and could not believe how easy it was, definitely the easiest draw of any cigar I can remember. This intruiged me so I looked it up online before I lit. I did not find a whole lot but JR has them for $15 for a 1! Maybe this isn't the same type I had becuase I found a couple other sites that had them listed for ~$4 each. At any rate, I enjoyed the cigar, burn was great all the way through, a little peppery taste and lots of smoke.
 
JR's would be the place for these as to the best of my knowledge, Lew bought or created the brand during the cigar boom. They can be quite inconsistent, but the good one are quite good. they use to sell for appx $40 a box at JR's but with the buy-out I am not sure if that brand transferred to ALTIDIS or if Lew kept it.
