Let's cut straight to the chase - the LFD Cabinet Maduro No.6 is a box-pressed torpedo that'll grab your attention with its oily Ecuadorian Maduro wrapper. At 5¾" x54, this Dominican puro packs medium-full strength into a 50-count box priced around $562.50. What makes it special? That glossy Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper actually comes from LFD's own Dominican farm, aged to perfection before rolling.
Cold draw hits with earth and raisin sweetness. Initial puffs deliver dark chocolate richness - not the sugary kind, but 85% cacao bitterness. Smoke production surprises with medium output despite the hefty ring gauge. Watch for sporadic burn lines needing touch-ups.
Cocoa powder transitions to espresso beans around the 1-inch mark. Here's where the Dominican ligero kicks in - black pepper spice lingers on the tongue but doesn't assault the throat. Retrohale reveals baking spices and cedar notes that serious smokers will appreciate.
Strength ramps up noticeably past the band point. Savory elements emerge - think charred meat with molasses glaze. The wrapper's sweetness battles earthy core flavors until the nub, though tar buildup stays minimal thanks to quality construction.
This LFD release caters to smokers who want Maduro depth without nicotine overload. Pair with bourbon or black coffee. Newbies be warned - that Dominican filler might punch harder than expected. Veteran cigar nerds? You'll want to stock up on these limited production sticks before they disappear.
