La Floridita Limited

borndead1 · 01-15-2009, 11:16 PM

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.

I've had a bundle of their regular maduros and they are very tasty for the price. In fact I kinda use them as my "everyday" maddy in the summer. By your description it looks as if there is a richer flavor profile on the Limited blend. I may have to break down and try these. Thanks for the review.

Buy me a box and I'd be happy to!

Hehehe...I've been eyeing these as well. The customer reviews are pretty good. I may try to snag a box or sampler next time they come up on auction. Also wanna try the Nesticos (not the Organica cigarillos, a separate blend).
