C.L.E. Cigar Company has announced that their TAA exclusive Eiroa Dark 11/18 is now shipping. The Eiroa Dark line launched in 2019. The difference in the TAA Exclusive is the size, which happens to be the Eiroa family’s signature 11/18 size. Only five hundred boxes were created.
The Eiroa CBT 51 made its debut at Christian Eiroa's birthday event which took place during the 2023 PCA trade show. Now that cigar will be released to the public in limited form.

·"While the flavor profile of this cigar really wasn't in my personal wheelhouse, it will likely appeal to others who prefer sticks that bring a strong pepper punch on the front end and like smokes with grass and hay type overtones. While not very complex, it was not overly simple or boring either. It was well made and other than the single touch up required (not really a big deal at all) it performed nicely from start to finish as well." -Dave (mdwest)

·“Wonderful and enjoyable. I want to smoke this one again. The flavors were awesome and close to perfect. The cinnamon was very enjoyable, almost reminding me of a Tabasco flavor. The undertones of chocolate added to the uniqueness and provided a wonderful smoking experience. I would very much like to have a box of these in my humidor. I could enjoy this with a latte or espresso. Maybe even a stout ale. The one thing that I could think of that would make this better was if it were a churchill.” –Eric (smalls29)
Miami, FL (November 18, 2015)—C.L.E. Cigar Company is proud to announce the shipment of the Aladino Cigars. These cigars made their debut at IPCPR 2015 but were not available to be shipped until now. The cigar is all Honduran with the tobacco grown by Julio Eiroa on the Jamastran Valley and rolled out of the Las Lomas Factory in Jamastran. “
C.L.E. Cigar Company has announced the Asylum Sensorium. The company is calling this a super-premium blend, and the price reflects that. Sensorium is defined as: “The parts of the brain or the mind concerned with the reception and interpretation of sensory stimuli.”
"This was a very good cigar. The first third is the star giving me complex flavors of coffee and cream, oily chili, black pepper, sweet bread, hay, cedar and at times perhaps a black licorice. I kept wanting to take draws just so I can confirm what I'm tasting. The cigar does still have a little bit of edge to it in which I think age may help with. Easy fiver for me. Smoking one every 6 months or so to see how it is progressing." -Jiunn (jliu)

·"I enjoyed the first third the most and hoped that that flavor would continue throughout the cigar. The spiciness was nice. The last two thirds transitioned to a less desirable, but not bad flavor. This would be a good cigar as the last cigar of the day or one to have after a meal. This is something that I would smoke again." -Aaron (aaron72)

·"Overall this smoke was unlike anything I smoked before. It had a unique shape and some unique and enjoyable flavors. It was more mild...teetering on the medium side but this allowed the flavors to shine through nicely. However the cigar never really shyed away from its core assortment of spices and sweetness which did tend to lose my interest after the second third." -Will (Dubv23)
