Nice review, but I must also respectfully disagree. I have been smoking these since they first came out. In fact I asked the owner to leave them unpriced hidden away just for myself and him. He did with the first box, but as other saw them they had to be out. Yes it is a full bodied cigar, but it has a wonderful complex flavor, not a kick you on your butt flavor. I have even recommended to friends who are medium smokers, all of them agree it is an awesome smoke. Keep up the good work Litto.

To me, once you have filet mignon you don’t care much for chopped beef. The Double Ligero is just so complex. Starting off with the spice bomb and settling into some oak wood flavors. For the price I think you get an “E” ticket ride with the Double Ligero. Just my humble opinion.

Tinderbox currently has them listed at $140 for a box of 24 (with free shipping). And, until they went out of stock, Cigars International sold them for $125 per box. Otherwise, the price varies by B&M and location.

I am curious about the pricing you listed. When I lived in California I couldn’t find these sticks at less then $10 each. Here in east Tennessee, the price is about $8. I’d love to be able to find them for the $5 you mentioned–I’d buy a whole box!

Thanks for the review, Patrick. I’ve found the same – good overall flavor, but lacking complexity. I think my taste buds adjust to the flavor and by the end, it tastes pretty bland to me, like charred wood. I think if the blend had more dimensions to its flavor, I would find it more interesting and those little changes in flavor would keep my taste buds from habituating. I ended up doing exactly what you suggest in the review: smoking them in the evening when I wanted a cigar that didn’t really demand my attention but still had some pop to it.

I knew there would be at least a few readers who would disagree with my conclusions about this stick.

I’m glad, dmjones, that you’ve found something you enjoy. But if, as you say, this has been your favorite for over a year, you and I likely have different tastes and expectations when it comes to cigars.

Thanks for your input.
