Fantastic cigar filler direct from 2015, grown in the Dominican Republic . This filler has been perfectly fermented. Quality of leaf like this is very hard to find. This tobacco comes “frog legged” which means some of the mid-rib has been removed from the leaf.
Ligero is the 3rd priming of the tobacco plant and is stronger in flavor and strength than Dominican Viso and Dominican Seco.
One pound of cigar filler will make about 40 – 50 x 7″ cigars.
As with all Whole Leaf Tobacco products, this leaf is shipped in thermal sealed vapor-proof bags and arrives in the proper moisture content for working.

This ligero seems to be the best one for me. I’ve tried several and found I like this one in most my blends. Of course i usually smoke my cigars within 24 hours of rolling them so your results may vary if you age your rolls. I guess that means this ligero is already that smooth right off the truck!

I like it. The Traditional Corojo is my fave ligero, but right now this one and the new C98 ligeros are also getting some use in my kit, for variety. Not nearly as potent as the Corojo, but sometimes that can be a good thing.

I’ll update my review to say this is currently my favorite and most go-to ligero for my blends.
