Default Litto Gomez Diez Vinatge 2009 Oscuro Oriental

I can't say a whole lot besides WOW!!!
I've become an absolute Litto fan as of late, and have gathered up about a dozen boxes of this and that. Most are long gone.
I was a huge fan of the 2006 Oscuros, which were really hard to come by. His Coronado's, as well as the Coronado maduros (only 83 boxes made) are incredible.
My next stop are the LGD Vintage 2009 Maduros. I'd been wavering back and forth on whether or not to get them, but I'm not going to be happy until I do. I'll order them in a few minutes.
My fascination with Litto's stuff began with the first small batch I had. I was absolutely shocked as to how delicious it was, and haven't stopped loving his stuff yet.
The LGD line are all Dominican Puros, which sets them apart. I guessed I'd love them, as I love my Anejos. Litto definately got it right.
Oddly enough, I have yet to find an LFD that I like. Go figure, right?
I'll warn you, these tiny little cigars are maneaters. They'll blow your head pretty much, well, off.
Proceed with caution.

Nice Scott!

I have yet to try and LG's but I am a lover of LFDs so I'm sure these are something I have to look for.

I'm having another one of these little buggers right now. I'm sitting at the Coffee Monkey near the courthouse in Washington, Pa. The day is gorgeous and the cigar is even better than I remembered. The burn on these has benefitted greatly with a little time.
Damn, they're delicious.

Yeah, those little Orientals really pack a punch. A regular flavor grenade. Keep wishing I had bought more.
