Default LFD ligero Cabinet Oscuro

Smoked one of these last night after a long evening of drinking at the MicroBrew festival, didnt get to snap any pics this time but it did happen!

The wrapper on this gar is sooo greasy it burnt super slow and super even.

I love strong cigars that melt your face everytime you take a puff and this one did just that! Possibly the Cigar of the year for me!!!!

very rich flavors thru out of almost everything on the flavor wheel, ill have to smoke one a little more sober next time and give some better breakdowns LOL.

But if you like em strong and rich..this one is the winner!

and you gotta love that LFD is always consistant so i know what to expect next time i smoke one.

Thanks for the review, I am also a huge LFD fan but don't smoke them as much now days since their prices have skyrocketed over the past year or to. Since I smoke drunk most of the time guess this review might be more appropriate than a sober one!

Yeah, these are delicious -- rich, complex, strong, but balanced. Thanks for the review.

I smoked an L-400 Oscuro (my first LFD) and liked it enough to buy an extra box a friend had. Very nice cigar! LFD / Lito Gomez is a cigar maker that I'd like to get more familiar with.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing!

Nice review Red... you know I love the LFD's. My local has been out of stock for a while on many of the sizes, I'll need to venture out and see if I can find these.

I finally tried a LFD a few months back based on all the great reviews and also because I'm a big Dominican fan. Well the cigar was great for sure! very strong but also balanced and sweet. The one thing that was a bit of a disappointment was the fact that it tasted exactly like a Nicaraguan. That's not a bad thing, just not what I was expecting.

I will definitely have to try more Litto stuff in the future.

im pretty sure LFD uses some nic tobac as well...the factory is probably in the dominican...but tobacs from wherever....(but im guessing)
im not a dominican fan either..unless it says LFD on the bad

Great review! I've been looking at these at my local B&M and you may have just pushed me over the top on getting one/some.
