OK stogie fans; post the goods here .............
Yesterday I enjoyed a LFD Litto Gomez Small Batch #6 that had been in my humi @ 72% RH for just over one year
Litto Gomez Small Batch No. 6 - halfwheel
I suppose most folks would consider this particular cigar @ a $20 price point to be a 'special occasion' cigar but to me yesterday was just another day :lol:
LFD is known for heavy, full strength cigars & this one was no exception but it took a while for it to ramp up to the full strength level.
Initially this cigar started off very tame with notes very similar to the LFD Litto Gomez Diez (oh my) which are flavors of crème, berries, almond, tobacco.
The ash held for 55 minutes & then an almost immediate flavor profile transition & strength transition. At this point the flavor profile becomes less desirable IMO but the strength starts to ramp up. After about 90 minutes the strength is pretty much beyond my desire to further pursue puffing but I did enjoy this Small Batch #6 yesterday morning before I ate anything :shock: so, that may have contributed to me tossing it after 100 minutes/1 hour 40 minutes.
I have tried the Litto Gomez Small Batch 4, 5, and 6 & they all have a similar flavor profile, and they do require some touch ups with the ole lighter but nothing major.
Also, I have enjoyed cigars that cost a considerable amount le$$ that are IMO a 'better' cigar. None the less cigar smokers understand the adventure of enjoying differing blends :mrgreen:
Is the LFD Litto Gomez Small Batch series worth $20 a pop? Maybe, maybe not but any cigar smoker should decide for themselves.
I would certainly recommend allowing these to age a minimum of 9 months in your humi eace
