This torpedo-shaped beast from LFD immediately demands attention with its oily Cameroonian wrapper hugging a blend of aged Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos. Measuring 6 1/4" with a 54 ring gauge, the figurado delivers concentrated flavors through its tapered head. The limited availability stems from Litto Gomez's insistence on using mature Ligero-grade Cameroon leaf - considered holy grail material by many rollers.
First Third: Immediate sugar cane sweetness mixed with baking spices - think cinnamon toast crunch dipped in molasses. The Cameroon wrapper's signature honey-glazed character shines through dense white smoke.
Middle Third: Earthiness kicks in as Dominican fillers flex their muscles. Cedar planks and black pepper emerge, tempered by walnut undertones. Draw remains effortless despite tight roll.
Final Third: Nicaraguan ligero takes charge - mineral-rich soil notes dominate with espresso bitterness. Some get pleasant leather hints; others might find it overly aggressive. Smoke time averages 85 minutes.
Pair with añejo tequila to complement the spice, or dark chocolate for sweetness contrast. Let rest 6+ months in humidor if you prefer rounded edges over upfront power. The pyramide head requires precise clipping - remove just enough cap to prevent tight draw without unraveling wrapper.
