Quesada Keg Edition at Jack Schwartz Importer

[JackSchwartz]

We have some Quesada Keg Edition cigars coming in.  These are made in the Plasencia factory in Nicaragua and feature a blend of Nicaraguan tobaccos with a Pennsylvania Broadleaf wrapper.  Single cigars are $8.20 and a 21-count keg goes for $150.  A total of 250 kegs were made.  I believe these should be here today, if not we'll see them on Monday.
 

 
 
So we already have the La Flor Dominicana 20th Anniversary Beer Steins and now these Quesada Keg Editions are coming out....

 
 
Thank you,
Eric

Eric, did you get a chance to smoke one of those LFD 1994?

I've got a La Flor 20th Ani. sitting at home but I haven't had the chance to smoke it yet.  I should be able to light that up tonight so hopefully I'll have a review for you tomorrow.  Anyone else here on CP had a chance to smoke one of these yet?

Thanks Eric, let me know. As of right now I have zero space in my humidor for anything new but I should be getting some new hardware this Saturday!

Alright, got a chance to smoke a couple La Flor 20th Anniversary cigars this weekend.  There's similarities with the 1994 line but that's to be expected since both cigars share the same filler/binder blend.  The 20th Anniversary has that same leathery, earthy profile but the San Andres Maduro wrapper kind of cuts into the spiciness of the regular 1994 blend with slight hints of sweetness (almost like a cinnamon roasted almond) and a little more cedar.  Strength-wise they seem to be the same, maybe a little more smoothness to the 20th Anniversary but that could be because it's not quite as peppery as the regular 1994 blend.
