An extremely limited release with only 700 boxes produced, this is an experimental blend by master blender Litto Gomez using his Salomon wrapper and La Canela Dominican binder and filler. This cigar has a solid core of cedar and coffee notes, with a hint of caramel sweetness and spice on the finish. The attractively oily, milk chocolate colored wrapper is impeccably rolled with a triple cap, promising a smooth and pleasurable smoking experience.

Strength: Full          Origin:  Dominican Republic                   Wrapper:  Ligero

If you like your cigars with punch and power as well as full, rich flavor, you won't be disappointed with the "Icepick". Formerly a cigar you could only get personally from Litto Gomez at exclusive events, the LFD Cheroot is now being sold exclusively by Empire Cigars. Expect strong peppery notes along with subtler hints of woodsiness, toasted nuts and leather, and an excellent draw despite its rough appearance.
