Default Litto Gomez Diez Oscuro Chisel

I had the pleasure of trying one of these sweet babies courtesy of a trade I did with Tim (TRicker) awhile back.
From what he's told me, one of every 200 boxes of chisels Litto makes, he rolls one cigar with an Oscuro wrapper.
Tim was able to find some, and I wiggled one out of him in the trade.
I've smoked almost all the Americano's he's sent already, because they are that incredible.

The review is real simple. It was perfect. Delicious. Full of body and Dominican goodness.
It's no wonder the chisels are so highly rated.
Then add an Oscuro wrapper, and I'm obviously gonna go out of my mind.
Easily a 10/10 smoke for me. Also easily among the top five cigars I've ever smoked.
Absolutely incredible.

It was gifted to me.
I have another just like it that's a Cohiba. Picked it up at ebay.
Cuban Crafters used to have one with no sticker and a hole in it that was perfect for torpedoes. I think I gave that one away.

PM Tim (TRicker).
From what he said, they're pretty much unattainable. He got lucky.
I think he found them at his local B&M.

nice review, but that wrapper really doesn't look particularly oscuro, does it? or maybe the photo doesn't do it justice...

It doesn't have to be black to be oscuro, and it doesn't have to be brown to be maduro, brother.
Some of the best maduro wrappers I've ever smoked have been colorado maduro that like like a rosado wrapper.
Point being, color really doesn't mean anything. The process in which the aging was done means EVERYTHING. It's what makes the flavor.

I can't even imagine an entire box. It's beyond my capacity.
I think I'd pass out just laying eyes on them.

Sounds awesome. Thanks for the review. And I thought the regular chisels were hard enough to find, they have to go and wrap 1/200 in Oscuro? That's just cruel!
