(It came from a different source than the rest.) Aside from the occasional touch up and relight, the cigars performed well, solid ashes, even burn lines and etcetera. And with the one that didn’t, the stick seemed to be a little over humidified. With one exception, the LG Diez Lanceros drew very well. The cold draw always seemed a tad tight, and produced raisin and grass flavors. The cigars seemed firm and consistent, and the wrapper had a sweet pungent compost aroma. There was also sporadic dark spotting on the leaf. Looking the cigars over, I didn’t find any flaws in the wrappers, but I noticed that they were well populated with fine veins. Getting beyond the decorative band, the wrapper on the LG Diez Lanceros I smoked was surprisingly light in color, especially if you’re more familiar with the popular Double Ligero line. Its abundance of regal red and gold are eye catching, but it’s also functional, clearly indicating not only the name, but that this is a Dominican Puro from 2010. We hope you enjoy these great cigars.įirst off, though it doesn’t have any bearing on the cigar itself, I really like the LG Diez band. The flavor and complexity of the LG’s are everything that we anticipated. Finally the waiting is over, today we can celebrate this great achievement. Just to be disappointed because it was not ready but at the same time happy because we would taste the progress. We tested this blend month after month for three years. The process of fermentation and aging took more years than we expected. But the most difficult part was the waiting. We knew it was a difficult task, because it implied growing our own wrapper. In 1999, we challenged ourselves to produce a cigar that was made entirely with tobacco grown on our farm. If you’re not familiar with the LG Diez line, here’s some background from the La Flor Dominicana website: This very limited LG Diez line extension (around 200 boxes) was introduced at the 2010 IPCPR trade show, and sold out quickly at many shops. And he was right, but he may have underestimated the demand.
Even though he knew that a lancero wouldn’t be a smash hit with the average consumer these days, there are connoisseurs of the slender stick that would appreciate it. I asked my local La Flor Dominicana rep Justin, and he told me it’s because the lancero is one of Litto’s favorite vitolas. You may be wondering why a company that’s so well known for big cigars would produce a lancero, especially in a less-than-favorable market for the size. And to be honest, I’m rather fond of the DL660 and Maduro Salomon. I could complain about the situation, but the 60 ring gauge is many smokers are looking for, and Litto was kind enough to provide us with a smaller option or three. And that’s just the La Flor Dominicana section. It fights for your attention in the humidor among the likes of the L500, DL660, the DL700, the Salomons and soon, the new 8 1/2 x 60 Double Ligero “Digger”. Take for instance the cigar I’m reviewing this week, the LG Diez Lancero 2010. These days it’s easy for lanceros to get lost in the beefy, large ring-gauged shuffle.
