Elegidos is new from Cuba by Flor de Cano
Elegidos is the name of the new format from Flor de Cano, Cuba. It is a Robusto and the factory format is called Lirios. Already in 1987 there was a Robusto with almost the same dimensions. At that time it was called "Short Churchill" and was 124 mm long and had a 50 ring gauge. It was discontinued in 1992. A little later, in 2018 (appeared late 2019), there was the Regional Edition Países Bajos (Netherlands); this was also 124 mm long and had a 50 ring.
The new Elegidos has a length of 127 mm and also has a 50 ring. Here is the test report >

Since I'm excited about it! The Flor de Cano Cheese Edition from 2018 has been, as far as I know, no short filler, has good steam and is very tasty! But that was at 95 € the 10er box. 4.50 CHF for ne Cuba Robusto, even if short filler, in any case a very good PLV ... so they will also taste good.
I have so far had very good experiences with short fillers from Cuba. These cigars also need their maturation time. I will write a test about the cigar shortly. The BD is already older than 4 months. Am curious how it will taste to me.
