La Flor Dominica 6×54 Double Ligero Chisel Review

This La Flor was a strong little treat on a sunny afternoon in San Diego. Lots of flavor and spice with a healthy punch and high nicotine level. The burn was nominal and I had a little bit of a hard time with the Chisel tip but all in all it was a great smoke. [...]

Omar Ortez Original Toro 6×54

This was a pretty solid low priced smoke.  Nothing fancy, just some simple earthy flavor with medium body and a great burn.  I think it was even a little better than I expected it to be.  At a local shop you will find them in the $5-$8 range and online you might find them as [...]
