LFD Double Ligero Chisel
So I thought I would start to review some cigars since I smoke a lot of different lines and vitolas. This is my first review so take it easy on me.
The La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero Chisel is a cigar that I believe most BOTL enjoy and recommend. I have had these before but they are a line that I almost always look past whether online or at a B&M. The DL Chisel is one of the more powerful smokes I have had in my 15 years of smoking. It is said to be rolled by Satan himself. It is not one for the novice and not one you should smoke on an empty stomach or without a sweet drink nearby. Construction: A very well made stick. Slight veins apparent but overall a well rolled cigar with a very unique head that is triple capped (at least it looked like it). Beautiful reddish Equadorian wrapper. I had a slight crack near the foot. No big deal. Burn: It took to the flame easily enough. Initially it was burning evenly during the first third or so. It got a bit uneven later on but I did not feel the need to touch it up. It pulled a nice 2" ash before I tapped it off. Draw was pretty good as well. The head reminds you of those childrens sippy cups. It produced a medium volume of smoke. Flavor: This cigar had a nice rich and smooth flavor to the palate. I tasted notes of leather, some coffee and a tangy flavor from the ligero. This cigar was great tasting from the start to finish. Not overly complex but solid all around. Overall: This is a cigar I would love to get a box of. It is that good. If you have not had one then you owe it to yourself to try it. Rated 9 out of 10 |
