The La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero 660 Maduro hits like a heavyweight boxer in a 60 ring gauge package. This 4 5/8" parejo comes in boxes of 20 at $167.40, packing Dominican Ligero tobacco that's been double-fermented for maximum intensity. Nicknamed "The Cold Sweat Special" among veteran smokers, this cigar demands respect - and a full stomach before lighting up.
Immediate black pepper kick with espresso grounds intensity. Dark chocolate notes emerge through the heavy smoke output, accompanied by charred oak undertones. The draw feels surprisingly open for such a densely packed cigar.
Caramelized sugar sweetness balances the earthy core. Roasted coffee bean aromas dominate, with occasional flashes of mineral graphite. Smoke density increases - visible plume even in well-ventilated spaces.
Leather and damp earth tones surface as nicotine strength peaks. The maduro wrapper releases baking spices (cinnamon/nutmeg) while maintaining dark cocoa continuity. Recommended stop point at 1.5" remaining due to tar buildup.
The oscuro maduro wrapper glistens with oil, showing minimal veins. Triple cap holds firm despite the 60 ring gauge. Burn line stays even without corrections, producing solid 1.5" ash segments. Box-pressed version available for easier handling.
