Default La Flor Dominicana Ligero

I am gonna keep this short and sweet because I did not take notes or pictures. This is my third LFD, my second Ligero. I do not remember them being this good. It tasted exactly like an Opus X , just not quite as flavorful. Highly recommended for someone who wants that Opus X taste at a cheaper price. I would love for those who have smoked both to chime in. This is a Domincican Puro, right? I will definitely be looking for more! Thanks for reading, thanks CA for letting me be able to post somewhere I able to call home! Looking forward to reading your comments on this one. Sorry it was not an actual in-depth review, I promise I will get back to my usual format for my next review....
-Tommy

Nice short review!

While I do taste a small similarity due to them both being Dominican Puros, Opus Xs have a sweetness I just can't detect in an LFD.

My favorite LFD is the Cabinet Oscuros. Tasty sticks!

I enjoy these as well. To me, these are nothing like an Opus X. The LFD is definetly stronger, which is to my liking. My favorite LFD is the maduro chisel.

I had the new LfD Air Bender one morning then smoked an OpusX Power Ranger that evening and the 1st cigar killed the 2nd in all categories. I was shocked but after thinking about it I'll be saving a ton of money when I want a strong DR cigar.
