I have had a ton of La Pearla Habana cigars, but never had one with bad construction before.

I have gone through almost a whole box of Black Pearl robusto's with never a bad one.. Consistency has been very good,,Actually I reach for this cigar when I want a no nonsense daily smoke.. Ive smoked alot of the other La Perla blends and only issue I had with some of those was taste.. I'm sorry, as I have no experience with the perfecto's.. Hard to tell from the picture but it looks like that one had a flawed wrapper., Yep let em rest for a few days and give em another go.. Just curious how are the Maduros? compared to the black pearls?.. BTW IMO your doing the right thing by holding off on the trades.. I'd be happy to trade with you anytime!!!

I have had several LPH without problems. I have had problems if I smoke anything too quickly after receiving it. In this heat with my last order I re-hydrated the humi-packs and keep them in the bags they came in for the first day to bring the temp down. Then I moved them into the humi and let them set for a week, just had one of them early this morning no problems. I think it has something to do with the heat and a fast move in the RH that causes this problem. Just an observation based on experience. If you had anything shipped without humidification I would let them rest for a while.

I have smoked EVERY blend of the LPH line without issue. I think it was the combination of dry shipment and early torching. Let them rest a week and give it another try. They are excellent low cost sticks IMO

I have at least 3 boxes of LPH sittin in my coolie and I've never had any problems with them either. and I probably smoke at least 2 of them a week.

The first time I bought a box of Moradas I tried one ROTT, the end tended to unravel, tried another, same thing. 3-4 weeks later they were improved, but that whole box did it. Others, haven't. Might have just been luck of the draw, but, there was some improvement. Good luck, pretty good smokes when they hold together.
