Quick Smoke: Litto Gomez Diez Small Batch No. 2
13 Mar 2010
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.â€
This rare treasure topped our ranking of the ten best cigars we reviewed in 2009—a list we emailed exclusively to subscribers of our free email newsletter. It’s easy to see why. The profile of red pepper, cinnamon, and roasted nuts is exceptionally complex, and the fine physical properties only add enjoyment. The cost may be high, around $16 apiece, but you can’t afford to pass up the chance to buy an LG Diez Small Batch No. 2 (6.25 x 54).
Verdict = Buy.

I really like these cigars when I am in the mood for a complex full bodied smoke. It really is amazing how many subtle flavors come and go with these cigars.
Lito did a great job with these.
Solid take. Mr. Gomez & Co. make some of the best blends available. Although the 2 is a tough find the end result is worth the effort. Since I am not and will never be an expert, more research is required. Big crosses for big hosses!
I just discovered the Litto Gomez Diezes and tried the smallest one in the store's case– maybe a 5" cigar/ about $9. Delicious! never a dull draw w/ this cigar; one rich, flavorful puff after another.
