On this week’s podcast, Nick and Greg smoke two well-known cigars using tobacco from the Dominican Republic, all while discussing their thoughts on the tobacco that comes from that beautiful Caribbean nation. The two went in-depth as to where tobacco from the Dominican Republic ranks next to other growing regions such as Nicaragua, Ecuador, and over here in the United States. The popularity of Dominican Republic tobacco has grown so exponentially, that some say it’s on par with Cuban cigars.

During the episode, Nick smoked the Davidoff Small Batch #3. The Davidoff Small Batch Series consists of nine different variations that range in tobacco strength from mellow to medium, and to full-bodied. When it comes to the Small Batch #3, you’re getting a wrapper from Ecuador, binder tobaccos that hail from Mexico, and fillers from the Dominican Republic. This smooth yet flavorful smoke is just as good as advertised.  With limited quantities available, hurry over to JR today and get a bundle of 10 of the Davidoff Small Batch #3.

Greg on the other hand smoked the zesty La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero. Cloaked in a delicious Ecuador Habano wrapper and Ligero Dominican fillers harvested from the very top of the plant, the Double Ligero Churchill Especial is one of the heaviest hitters in the industry. This full-bodied smoke that comes in a 7 × 48 size coats the palate with flavors of wood, peppery spice, coffee, leather, and caramel. This brand also includes the Chisel, which is a unique shaped torpedo with a flat head in the shape of a chisel. The shape alters the smoke slightly making it a more complex smoke. If you think your palate can handle the Double Ligero, then the La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero in any size is the cigar for you!
