La Flor Dominicana

Just to preface this I did try searching but came up with nothing.

I was just looking on CI's site and noticed that there is a cabinet L300 ligero and a L300 ligero, there is about a $20 price difference per box, what is the difference between the two? the description says that the cabinet has an oscuro wrapper however there is an oscuro and a non oscuro listed as being cabinet.

It just looks like one is an Oscuro wrapper and one is natural. Although the product description does say Oscuro wrapper.

yeah thats what it looks like, thats good for me, I prefer the natural.

I would send CI a quick email or give them a call to clarify.... It could be that they didn't remove an out of stock listing and re-listed the same thing at another price.

There are most definitely two different cigars, the Cabinet Oscuro series and the Ligero series.

Both cigars have an identical blend, however the Ligero line is wrapped in a smooth Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper that lends a milder smoother characteristic to the Dominican Ligero filler/binder, whereas the Cabinet series is wrapped in an oily, toothy Connecticut Broadleaf Oscuro wrapper that lends a sweeter more earthy taste with hints of chocolate and coffee.

I must say that I absolutely love the cabinet oscuro by L.F.D. Absolutey awesome full bodied smoke.

Both are great smokes, but the oscuro is a bit stronger.

One of my favorites. I smoke the Cabinet Ls all the time. The Oscuro wrapper is well worth the price difference IMHO!
