PDR El Criollito A. Flores Purito

Meet the PDR El Criollito A Flores Purito - a pocket-sized dynamo packed in 6 tins of 6 cigars (36 total) for $104.24. This 4"x34 ring gauge parejo was originally crafted for European smokers but went viral across the pond. Blended by Abe Flores using Dominican/Nicaraguan fillers wrapped in Ecuadorian Criollo 98 leaf, it's the cigar equivalent of a flavor-packed espresso shot.

Smoking Experience

First Third

The initial puffs deliver bold black pepper kick with underlying cedar notes. Thin blue smoke carries a distinct mineral tang from the Dominican olor binder. Burn line stays razor-sharp despite the slender format.

Mid Section

Mexican San Andrés binder shines through with coffee grounds intensity. Retrohale reveals unexpected dark cherry sweetness balancing the earthy core. Ash holds firm for 1/3rd length before first tap.

Final Stretch

Criollo wrapper amps up roasted almond flavors. Last inch introduces bitter cocoa edges - a classic sign to put it down before overheating. Total smoke time clocks 25-30 minutes, perfect for urban smokers.
