Don Lino Africa Kifaro Review

I've had a couple of the Duma's and really liked them, so I picked this one up last week to see if it was as good (noticed I've been trying a lot of torp's lately).

First of all, this is a drop dead gorgeous cigar, and built like a brick s#@thouse. Construction was nearly flawless. Can't tell ya what the pre-draw taste was like because I couldn't wait to fire her up after clipping the head. Lit up very nice and evenly.

First inch and a quarter was woody and leather like (to me), with just a hint of spiciness, and oh so smooth. About halfway spice became more prominate,
but I still could determine the aforementioned nuances.

Draw was perfect, IMO, with a satisfactory amount of smoke. Never got hot or harsh, even with an inch left. Let it go wishing it was churchill sized.

I highly recommend this cigar. I would rank it in the medium to full range, with plenty flavor.

Nice review. I like these myself. You should give the Kibiko size a try as well.

Nice review. Thanks! I really enjoy the Monte Afrique line and have been wanting to give the Don Lino Africa a try to see how it compares.

Re: Don Lino Africa Kifaro

nice review, I agree completely! I finished a box of Duma's last month, you just reminded me to get some more DLA's. Thanks!
