"Wonderful..."
The LFD Chisel series are amazing smokes. The shape requires a side hole which brings smoke in at right angles and exposes taste buds to the smooth flavour far different than normal cuts. The construction is very nice and is a smooth experience.

"Great smoke"
I m semi new to cigars, I ve usually smoked low end cigars and cigarillos and have been trying to find a premium cigar to keep in my humidor. Picked one up to try, along with a few others, out of three premium cigars, this was by far my favorite. It has a good semi sweet taste, and it smokes smoothly. Sense the trial run this has been my go to premium cigar.

"Best Freaking Cigar (from Dominica) Ever!"
I have had the pleasure of tasting cigars from all over the planet. I absolutely love authentic Cuban cigars... however... yes, in this case there is a however, the La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero Chisel cigar has got to be one of the best cigars I have ever smoked. It is a bit pricey for a Dominican, but it is well worth it. I usually end up smoking these till they literally burn my fingers... yes, that good. These cigars go way beyond full-bodied and should be smoked outside with a nice breeze going, preferably in the evening, with a nice glass of peaty Scotch and on a full stomach. It should take a few hours to smoke one of these, do not rush it or you won't be able to finish it. It takes me 2 1/2 hours roughly to smoke one of these and I enjoy every hit. This is absolutely an astounding cigar. Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to buy a box of 10.

"Full review by the Sasquatch: La Flor Dominicana D"
The strength of a honey bee is not in the sting but in the wing. Bees appear to be aerodynamically incapable of flight. But they don?t let that bother them. They overcome gravity, not just with furious flapping of their undersized wings, but with a tiny, nearly imperceptible flourish at the peak of each wing stroke that shifts the balance of air pressure just enough to send them airborne. There?s a lot of talk about the distinction between strength and power. Power comes from position or influence, strength comes from effort and sacrifice, from willpower and drive. Of course, such platitudes are the stuff of motivational posters and army recruitment videos. But there?s a reason for that. There is strength in might, but also in tenderness. There?s strength in passion and in subtlety. And there?s strength in control. A car?s power comes from the engine, but where would we be without brakes? The La Flor Dominicana Chisel (6?54) exemplifies strength in cigars, with power and control. There?s no doubt, this is an intense cigar, but there?s more there than just power. There are subtlety and nuance, and the acknowledgement that power is not enough. The Chisel features LFD?s signature all-ligero blend, with Dominican fillers and binder, and a dark oily Ecuadorian wrapper. I selected the dark natural, but it?s also available in a maduro. The most notable initial feature of the Chisel is its shape. It?s, well, a chisel, tapering to a half-inch wide point designed for a pleasant embouchure. There is some debate about the proper way to open the Chisel, whether to cut a notch across the ?blade? or to use a punch to open a hole in the flat ?face? near the end. Don?t do either of these. The Chisel can be opened by simply pinching the head of the cigar parallel to the axis of tip, creating a perfect slit opening. If you?re worried about the wrapper splitting or some other problem, don?t. It works perfectly every time. The draw from the pinch is open and light, with no cracking or splitting. The head can also be moistened, softening the capa, and further simplifying the procedure. The initial flavors are of intense dark tobacco, with heavy roasted earth and leather, and a hint of tangy bourbon. Pace yourself: you can feel a nicotine tingle from the heady ligeros. The burn wanders persistently, and requires regular maintenance, producing a gray ash which is flat and generally not well-formed. Within the second inch, the flavors developed a thick layer of dark caramelized wood, with an extraordinary deep, rich character which continues to darken and intensify throughout the long slow burn. The finish is long and oaky. I rate this cigar 8.6. It?s a unique figurado, with intensity and depth, strength and flavor. It loses points for persistent burn issues, which might improve with slightly drier aging. Until next time, this is the Cigar Sasquatch saying, ?Love what you smoke, and smoke what you love.?

"Worst Cigar I have ever Smoked"
Smoked 1 of these and got sick from it. The taste was harsh and bitter and not what everyone is raving about. These cigars are not worth 50 cents apiece. What total garbage and a waste of money for sure.

"Awesome"
I occaisionally try other smokes, and I don't know why?! These are the only champions I need to allow to entertain my senses. All the rest are just second best.

"Speechless."
Ok, maybe not speechless, but this cigar was pretty amazing. I wasn't sure how I was going to like the chisel, but it really grew on me. It spread the smoke across the pallet nice. This cigar lasted, and lasted...and lasted. And the flavor- wow. I have been a smoker of all sorts of tobacco for a good 15 or more years so my pallet took to this cigar really well- ok, my mouth watered after lighting it. This isn't an every day smoke, but, if it was I probably would be in heaven.
