I was a fan of the La Flor Dominicana TAA 50 Segunda Edición Natural, but I tend to be a fan when LFD makes a Dominican blend finished with a Nicaraguan wrapper. I think the blend is balanced and it has an old school flavor profile that shows the quality of Dominican tobacco with a high quality Nicaraguan wrapper.
The Balmoral Serie Signaturas Paso Doble Gran Toro was complex, showing transitioning from start to finish and always possessing depth. On top of that, the body, strength and flavors played well off of one another and left me entertained and keeping my attention throughout. Job well done!
Prepare to have some time on your hands to enjoy this La Flor Dominicana Factory Press. While a cigar of this size can often become one dimensional, this one did not. If you have the time, I would recommend giving this one a try.
The La Flor Dominicana La Volcada began with a lot of promise given the twists and turns of the initial flavors. I wasn't sure which direction the spice would lead but the blender did a great job of bringing it out strong and then dialing it back.
This cigar has clearly passed its prime. In other words, the cigar aged out. The flavors were overall too light and airy. And the dominant hay and musk quickly became mundane and one dimensional.
