Black Pearl Original robusto

I had 10 of these when I first got interested in cigars. I enjoyed them a lot as a beginner and I'm sure I would enjoy them just as much now and in the future. All of them seemed to burn near flawlessly and tasted good at a great price. I believe this is the LPH Black Pearl (Brazilian arapirica wrapper) and not the LPH Original(not a maduro). It is quite confusing the way some of the bands say black pearl and some say La Perla Habana. Thanks for the review.

The Morado (purple) is the one that has gotten the most attention. I think it rated 92??? I've smoke several boxes and still like one every once in a while.

Thats weird as Ive been smoking these quite a while and Ive never seen a "black pearl black pearl", with any red in the label.. The way I remember it is this,, Black pearl,, blueish grey label, Morado purple, Rojo dark red, Cobre gold, Classic white lettering and red but not as much as the rojo plus can identify by cigar wrapper. There is also the classic maduro which is a spinoff the classic but not a "black pear black pearll" They also have a la perla cameroon, both the cameroon and the classic maduro should have a secondary band.

The picture of the rojo on this website shows the same black band with a red back. Maybe they've changed it recently?

Pish. Why can't they just write it on there. What's the big prob with that.

The color of the band is the individual blend. If it has red on the sides it is the "rojo" a habano wrapper and my favorite of the lot. Green is the classic or original, purple is the morado a cameroon wrapper and noteworthy, I believe the black label is the "Black Pearl", the copper colored label is the cobre, a mild conneticut wrapper

Morado is my favorite.. The one that made me try the rest of the line. The others, while very good, didn't quite match up to purple.

I think the bands must have changed at some point. If you look at the photos Ccom uses even the Cobre is sporting a black band. The way I understand it now is that the Cameroon actually says Cameroon on it. The Classic and Classic Maduro say La Perla Habana. All the rest say Black Pearl. The LPH Black Pearl has a very dark blue/black band, the Cobre a very light purple band, the Rojo a red band and the Morado a dark purple band. Then again...I could be wrong, it's very confusing.
