Quick Smoke: La Flor Dominicana Colorado Oscuro Chisel

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.”

Exclusively sold as part of the fourth CRA Sampler to support the defense of cigar rights, this is the La Flor Dominicana Colorado Oscuro blend (Ecuadorian ligero Sumatra wrapper, Dominican Sumatra binder, and Dominican and Nicaraguan filler) in a Chisel (6 x 54) size. It features syrupy molasses flavors along with leather, coffee, and floral notes. Construction is flawless. I think I prefer the traditional sizes of this blend a little better, but it’s still a well-constructed, tasty smoke. Plus, the proceeds go to a good cause.

Verdict = Buy.
