This celebratory release, as the name suggests, is dedicated to the 30th Anniversary of La Flor Dominicana. What better size to commemorate this momentous achievement than the Chisel. This unique vitola is a well-balanced cigar while at the same time boasting an intense flavor profile, supported by a well-integrated strength and an almost everlasting finish.
It opens with marked aromas of chocolate and aged wood, with hints of white pepper in the background. Further into the cigar, the smoke develops a roasted coffee note, joined by earth and vegetal nuances towards the end.

HOW ARE THE AWARDS MADE?
Those who scored the highest among the cigars tested during the year in blind tastings and reviews get re-selected. These products are then tested once again in a new blind tasting, which means not knowing what they are during the tasting. The test results are then compared, and the TOP 5 are created.
Since 2015, CigarsLover Magazine has focused on terroirs in order to give the right space to all the producing countries. From 2018, the TOP 5 were paired with the TOP 50, which lists the 50 best cigars without distinction of origin. Together with the Best Brands, the Best, and the best Boutique Brands, this list will be published in CigarsLover Magazine issue #5.
