For some reason, I dig deeper into the depths of my humidors when I am broke. Found this cigar while digging through a box of assorted maduros.

Size: FAT ASS robusto. Now I remember why I forgot about these cigars. They have a RG of 60. Just not a size that sits comfortably between my teeth. Looking at the whole line, the smallest RG is 52, but it's a churchill (too long for me). It's a shame, too, because this is a really great blend.

It has a distinct amaretto or sweet liquor type flavor that I've only experienced with a handful of cigars. I can taste it on the draw and nose exhale. The finish has a tart, charred wood flavor.

Lots of subtle flavor changes throughout the smoke. With this much tobacco packed into 1 cigar, you're bound to get a variety of flavors and aromas. Burn is a bit crooked but not bad enough to need correction.

Great smoke, fantastic blend. I gotta give it up to Famous Smoke Shop. They really have a lot of outstanding house blend cigars that are easy on the wallet. I wish they made the La Floridita Limited in smaller sizes.
