A Lakeland Cigar?


(Firecured) If I hadn't known beforehand that Parodi Cherry Vanilla Cigars are manufactured in Scranton, Pennsylvania, I might of guessed that they're made in England. They have that distinctive floral taste that some call "Lakeland essence" (and others call soapy), that is peculiar to some aromatic British pipe tobacco blends (most famously, Samuel Gawith and Gawith Hoggarth). They are good little cigars, and like all Avanti products, dry cured, so no humidor is required.
Recommendation: Recommended, especially if you like "soapy" pipe tobacco.
