La Flor Dominicana Premium Macheteros

A nice little medium-bodied pc with lots of flavor and a pleasant floral aroma. After the first half-inch the tannins come marching in to give the flavor a tangy foundation and a citric aftertaste. This blends nicely with the floral element from the wrapper. A good draw and even burn are a plus. My only complaint is that a cigar this small really does not need two bands. Trying to remove the lower "premium" band tears up the wrapper every time. Not cool. Otherwise a very nice little smoke.

Very light color wrapper is quite deceiving. The perception would be mild, but it is not. Medium strength with nice tobacco and coffee flavors. Some early spice but not much more. No burn problems but there was a hint of bitterness at times. Burned fast. 1/2 hour smoke

i love the chissles and those little old school torpedos (ems and maduro, but the ems is a little better). This little stick was great. looked great, burned great, smelled great. but the flavor is what rREALLY makes it a great value. You look at the size of the thing and wonder, "how the heck are they getting all these intricate flavors out of such a small stick?" Dunno, how, but for 2.25 at the cigar outlet on Sunrise blvd in ft lauderdale, it's a definite go to cigar, especially for guys like me who often prefer a short powerhouse like this to a long cigar that you have to stop everything for

This is really a decent, short smoke for those without a lot of time. Has a nice pre-light aroma. Kind of smells like it's pretty mild, but it smokes more like medium bodied with a pretty good shot of woodiness to it. Definitely tastes Dominican. I can't think of many brands to compare it to--Maybe like the Gran Habano #1 but better, also somewhat reminiscent of a Santa Rosa or an Avo XO.
Had some tunneling problems though on the burn, and about 1/2 way down it really started to lose its flavor. I paid $5 for it but that was in a booze store where they always jack up prices. They are definitely worth their price.
This is a good cigar and I highly recommend this brand (also supposedly has 90+ ratings). I'll try the maduros next.
