Yes! LFD chisels are strong!

04-26-2009, 10:47 PM

I have been saving a LFD chisel in the bottom of my humidor for the right time but never seem to pick it out when I'm looking for something to smoke. It just never seemed like the right time. Today I was wanting a smoke and I just stuck my hand in the humi without looking, shuffled around and came out with it and said "what the heck, it must be time."
This was a natural, not the maduro. It was a great smoke. It lasted more than an hour and I never really noticed that it was subtly kicking my ass. That is until I finished it. Well really, it was kind of hard to totally finish it. I started getting wobbly towards the end. Then after it was done it kept creeping up on me. If I didn't have a tolerance built up it would have had me turning green. I still liked it a lot. Now I have to get another one to threaten me from the bottom of my humidor for another few months.

They have a reputation that is well earned IMHO.

I smoked my first one when I was fairly new to quality cigars, Lance, and the effect was very similar.

Two movies and plenty of water later I finally finished the first and only one I ever smoked. It is indeed a strong cigar. And if any of you is wondering how long it took, Lets say around three hours.

I am going to have to get my hands on one of these and see what they are all about.

Chisel Maduros are even better. Double Ligero 654's are freaking spectacular!

I smoke a TON of LFD product (one of our biggest accounts) and I have to say, Chisels, LG Small Batch, Factory Press, DL654's and Cabinet Oscuro 500's are my favorites.

There's always at least 2 LFD cigars in my daily count of smokes.

One of the few cigars that sat me right back down after trying to stand up. Not turning green kinda sick, just kinda wobbly and weak in the knees. I really enjoyed the flavor and great construction but not the kind of stick I reach for on a regular basis, that's for sure.

Sissy.

i carnt wait to get my hands of one of these i like cigars that melt my face a little bit

04-27-2009, 08:06 AM

I like the flavor of the natural more than the maduro. Yeah, the Litto is stronger but I like the flavor of the LFD better. I have a 654 in my humi, I'll have to smoke it soon.
I didn't mention in my OP that it was right before dinner and I had been working outside all day. I knew what I was getting into.

TripleF · 04-27-2009, 08:22 AM

Yes! LFD chisels are strong!

And it's weird, how you want more!!!

04-27-2009, 12:52 PM

They are a great cigar!

ZYA_LTR · 04-27-2009, 02:22 PM

I have such a low tolerance, i was told to not even hold a chisel for too long, the Detroit crew was afraid i would get a contact sickness.

04-27-2009, 02:39 PM

thebiglebowski · 04-27-2009, 03:09 PM

PM me your address, I have one package to ship out to a brother here soon, I can send you some Chisels to try.

neoflex · 08-25-2010, 05:04 PM

Never had a Chisel do that to me as I used to smoke these on a regular rotation but the Oscuro Especial got me once a few years back. I was on the train headed home from work(Still living in NY at the time) when a friend asked if I wanted to meet up at one of the locals. Got there around 7ish and had not eaten since 12ish. Decided to smoke an Oscuro Especial and all was well until I decided to get up to head home. I was wobbly as soon as I stood up. I stopped for chinese food on the way home hoping it would help and when I got home I still felt like crap so I decided to take a shower hoping it would help the nausea pass. Nope, instead I yacked in the shower. Felt great after that though.

yeah they are pretty strong (made it to my Five Horsemen list) but there are stronger out there. Not a cigar I fear nowadays though.
