The Cigar:
La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero Chisel
The Review:
I purchased this cigar at a B&M where I attended an event and at recommendation of my brother. The pre-light aroma smelled like a bouquet of flowers to me. Very sweet.
I torch the foot and start to puff away. Very sweet flavor on the tongue. I can't distinguish the exact flavor but very sweet, almost like smoking a clove. About an inch into it and I'm getting a mild peppery taste on the back of the tongue.
It remains for the remainder of the smoke and I get down to the last 1 1/2-2 inches and I have to put this baby down. Way too much for me. I suppose it was because I smoked a Padron earlier and in between did not have anything to eat. So I take a break, down 2-3 teaspoons of sugar (heard this helps) and wait a few minutes. Yup, I'm feeling better so I go back to the cigar.
Whoops, I went back too early. Have to put the chisel down again and I feel like vomiting but I don't. Well that was it for me and this cigar tonight. I prefer the mild/medium cigars and this was definitely a very strong cigar to me. I suppose I won't go on the recommendations of my brother very much anymore. :r
It definitely was worth a try but I don't think this smoke is for me quite yet. Maybe as my tastes and preferences change I will give this cigar another chance.
