LFD Double Ligero Lancero

[fetterjohn]

This cigar was gift from Atuck (thanks Alan) and I smoked it the next day. I won't go into to much detail since Moki did a perfect job describing this cigar...

Beautiful cigar to look at...perfect wrapper and very tiny veins if any. Perfect cap with a nice pig-tail. Perfect construction...

Nice cut with a cheap cutter...perfect draw. Now this point is huge because the last 4 lancero's I've smoked all had really bad draws...Cohiba Lancero, Trini Fundador and DR Trini lancero...so I was expecting as much...but was pleasently surprised with a great draw.

Pre-light taste was very spicy...

Lit up easy and was hit by a freight train of spice...not for the meak!!!

This lasted until 1.5 inches in and then mellowed to a nice pepper, dark tobacco and nutty smooth flavor...

The middle 1/2 was so smooth and flavorful...nice changes through it and lots of smoke...

The last 1/3 heated up again with spiciness but was so flavorful it wasn't overbearing...the last 2 inches was a little young like Moki said, but backed off the spice enough to bring you back down to earth after such a great roller coaster ride of a cigar.

Fantastic...rate this an "A". And with a little more age they will be very, very good. Wish they were easy to get...

I smoked one today as well, also from Atuck. It was from his box split. Mine was a bit different as it had A LOT of viens, wich is simular to my other experiences with the LFD oscuro natural wrapper. All in all I would say it was quite good. A lot of spice yet sweet. With age I bet this will be a classic, I would like for the spice and power of the cigar to wear off a bit. It gave me a good nicotine buzz but not so much as the chisels. Nice review Fetter!

I am glad you guys liked them!! I think that they are great and will be absolutely fantastic given some decent age. I have a few down for hibernation.
