Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,” “hold,” or “sell.” The following is a Guest Quick Smoke, submitted by a StogieGuys.com reader. If you’d like to submit your own for publication, please contact us.

The Lx2 Rob (5 x 52) has a beautiful-looking dark wrapper and an aroma of strong, spicy tobacco. The draw is easy and the burn slightly wavy, which I attribute to the ligero. The ash holds easily for an inch. Dark chocolate, pepper, and leather are the main flavors with a truly enjoyable balance. This blend, for lovers of full body and full-flavored cigars, is best after a light meal with a single malt to bring out its underlying sweetness. Just as good as the La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero.

Verdict = Buy.
