    Nice review, Rich. I'm gonna have to try out those Litto's sometime. And I'm always interested in cigars that aren't from the "normal" cigar producing countries, like Brazil. There's a Peruvian cigar on my "to try" list as well JFellows was talking about a while back.

    Thanks for the heads up. Great reviews.

    Default God of Fire by Don Carlos 2006

    Robusto (5.25 x 50)
    Wrapper: Ecuadorian Colorado
    Filler: Dominican Republic
    Binder: Dominican Republic

    The Fuente family does not disappoint. This cigar was was incredible from beginning to end.

    The construction was perfect and smooth oily wrapper smelled of earth and cocoa. The pre-light draw was clear and tasted sweet and earthy. After lighting this stick the sweet earthy flavor became more pronounced. About an inch in the sweet died down and a nutty taste came into play. Half way down a mild spice picked up and joined the nutty flavor. The earthiness subsided. For the rest of the cigar the spice continued to build. The intensity of nuttiness danced up and down mixing with a refreshing grassy flavor that popped out once in a while. The cigar provided an ample amount of sweet smelling smoke and an even burn.

    This cigar produced an extremely cool draw and a smooth taste for the entire length. For a medium-full bodied smoke it tended to be on the lower end for me. The taste was complex and delicious. A must try.

    Thanks for the reviews. But many may miss a review for a particular cigar if they don't scroll through your whole post.

    Yeah, I've been lazy about putting an index up on the first post. I'll try and get to it soon. Thanks.

    Default Padilla Hybrid

    Robusto (5x50)
    Wrapper: hybrid of Cuban-seed and Connecticut-seed grown in Ecuador(hence the name)
    Filler: Blend of Nicaragua, Peru, and Dom. Rep
    Binder: Dom. Rep

    This cigar has a fairly light brown wrapper. Slightly veiny but smooth to the touch. The aroma of the unlit cigar was mildly sweet and woody. The cap clipped cleanly and the pre-light draw was a little tight and tasted like a stick.

    After toasting the foot I puffed and the draw opened up a bit. A giant cloud of light grey smoke was produced with every puff. The smoke that was produced had a sweet creamy tobacco scent.

    At first, the flavor was slightly spicy, and tasted of wood and mild leather. The spice dropped off about 1/3 into the stick and the taste of wood became more smokey(i.e. like smoked meat). The smoked wood flavor and leather stayed relatively the same for the rest of the smoke. Towards the end the spice came back and slowly built up until I put it down. The spice never became big in flavor, but was a nice complement to the smoked wood and leather. I wished that the cigar had this spice the entire time. This cigar is considered a medium-full bodied smoke, but for me it was more like a mild-medium. The ash burned pretty even and held up strong.

    Over all, this was a decent smoke. Not very complex, but had a nice mellow refreshing flavor to it.
