Fellas, I have developed a new addiction - LIGERO!!!! Recently discovered them, and ever since very little seems to satisfy. Have tried the LFD Double Ligero, El Mejor Emerald, Gurkha Triple Ligero... and when I tried the Cain NUB, I swear - if it could cook, I would have proposed marriage right then & there! LOL

So Im curious - what ligeros is everyone loving, and are there any ligero gems out there that Im missing?

    Love the LFD Ligero sumatra and Oscuro. If you like what I like about ligero, then you've got to try the Joya de Nicaragua Antaño Dark Corojo, that's a good, ligero-heavy cigar.

    Ligeros? What do you mean? Like, what farms produce the best ligero primings?


    If you mean ligero heavy cigars, I like the Kristoff Criollo Ligero a lot, and of course the LFD DL is amazing.

    Try the cains in larger ring gauges. Big fan of diesel, ruination, diesel unlimited, LFD DL, Oliva V....all mentioned already. Is the opus ligero heavy? Those suckers are strong.

    You've probably had more than you realize. Any medium-full or full strength cigar you've had has probably had a healthy dose of ligero, in addition to awesome flavor, ligero adds a lot of the strength we get from cigars due to its higher positioning on the plant and how much sunlight and nutrients those leaves get relative to lower positioned leaves.

    That's the way it goes, you come for the cigars and company, but you come back for the shrimp, you can think of the shrimp as the glue that holds the Socal herf together. ;)

    My local shop owner makes a kickass triple ligero cigar he calls the "Lake Erie Monster" and it's awesome. Whenever I go in I end up buying at least 5 of them.
