Nov 6, 2009 - La Flor Dominicana Limitado IV  A 6.3 x 52 beauty, the Limitado IV is the next evolution in the Limitado series.  Released in early April, the Dominican filler & binder grown by Litto Gomez is covered with an Oscuro Nicaraguan wrapper.  Reportedly only 2,000 boxes were made - beautiful white & black wooden boxes of 48 cigars for around $430, singles usually available at your local B&M for around $10.00 (not including your state’s OTP taxes). Look for a long lasting, full bodied smoke with spice, coffee and sweet wood flavors. Plenty of strength, balanced and bold, the Limitado IV is a special cigar!

Nov 13,2009 - Camacho Connecticut Figurado  Released at the end of May this year, Camacho brings out their first and only Connecticut wrapped cigar in response to consumer requests for a Camacho on the lighter side. However, there’s still plenty of flavor and spice, just not as much strength as is usual from the line. Perhaps some of the Oettinger Davidoff influence? The line is available in 6 formats  the 54-42 x 6.3 Figurado we feature this month, and a Robusto, Toro, Churchill, a 60 and the 11/18 Figurado. The filler tobaccos in the blend are Honduran and Dominican and a Honduran binder is used. The wrapper is an Ecuadorian grown Connecticut leaf that is refined and silky. Early reports peg it at mild-medium bodied with some recognizable Corojo base flavors and a smooth finish. Available in sturdy wooden boxes of 25 cigars, our Figurado retails in the $7-$8 range.

Nov 20, 2009 - El Titan de Bronze Redemption Maduro Coronitas  We’ve featured El Titan de Bronze a couple times on DWCR. The cigars are made in Miami by level 9 rollers, all cigars are made using the entubado method and are finished with the traditional Cuban triple cap. Another master roller then inspects the cigars and packages them, ensuring the cigars meet the highest standards. We have always been impressed with the Gold, the Maduro and Redemption lines, but now comes the Redemption Maduro! Nicaragua fillers & binder, gently finished in a San Andreas Black wrapper, provides a smoke that is one of the best new cigars of 2009. Five traditional formats are available, and we’ve selected the Coronitas (5.5 x 44) to review.

Nov 27, 2009 - Torano Virtuoso Maestro  The Virtuoso is the first ever Sun-Grown wrapper cigar to be both made and grown by the Torano family. Torano describes this line as being the most full bodied cigar in their portfolio. With fillers from Nicaragua, Honduras and Panama, a binder from Honduras and that Pueblo Nuevo SunGrown wrapper from their own fields in Nicaragua, Torano says you will get a smooth and well balanced cigar full of peppery spice, roasted coffee and cocoa flavors. Since Bob has been on a Churchill kick lately, our last selection for November is the 7 by 50 Maestro vitola.  Three other sizes are also available, all come in beautiful white finished cedar boxes of 25 cigars.
