Black Pearl Morado
#1
Has anyone tried one of these?  I saw a vertical review of these and they all scored from 90-93.

The newest newletter from Cigar Insider featured these cigars.  This line is to comemorate their 10 year anniversary and they evidently used the best aged tobacco that they could find.  Long story short  is that the entire line of the Black Pearl Morado's scored in the 90's with one of the sizes getting a 93. 

The Morado also uses a deep purple packaging as purple associates with royalty.  The box and whole presentation looks spectacular and rivals San Cristobal in my opinion.

I have a Cigar Insider membership! Hehe, I neverever look at that anymore...totally forgot I had it.
Here's an excerpt:

Country: Nicaragua
Maker: Latin Cigars de Nicaragua S.A.
Distributor: Burlwood Group Inc.
Filler: Nicaragua
Binder: Nicaragua
Wrapper: Cameroon
Release Date: October 2007

BRAND SUMMARY: The Morado was first shown behind a
glass case as a concept cigar at the 2005 Retail Tobacco Dealers of
America trade show, but its official release was continually post-
poned due to wrapper shortages and blend adjustments. When
brand owner Doug Wood was satisfied with the cigar (and had
enough wrapper to sustain the brand), he launched it in 2007. The
word morado means purple in Spanish, and the cigars come in
purple boxes. This vertical was very impressive, as no cigar scored
less than 90 points. The Cameroon wrapper and Nicaraguan blend
worked best with the Torpedo, which scored 93 points. 
Average Rating:  91.3 points

If you are from ND/MN you can then deal with the color being a Vikings fan!  Atlantic cigars has them in boxes and 5 packs.  I am going to order a 5 pack tomorrow from them for $42

MSRP average of the sizes is about $10 per stick

New "Morado" is Latest Premium Cigar in Black Pearl Lifestyle Collection from La Perla Habana

"We wish we had enough of this tobacco to produce several years' worth of our new Black Pearl Morado (Purple) premium cigar," explains Doug Wood, founder and president of La Perla Habana Cigars. "But, its featured Cameroon wrapper is in shorter supply than we expected, so we can only offer limited supplies of Morado in three shapes: Robusto (4.75" x 52) Toro (6" x 50), and Torpedo (6.25" x 52)."
