Description
The LFD Double Ligero DL-700 Natural is a 6 1/2 x 60 cigar under a sun-grown Ecuadorian Sumatra leaf, with binder and filler grown on La Flor Dominicana’s own Dominican estate. Famous Smoke Shop files it as one of two toro sizes in the Double Ligero line, which, as the name signals, builds its filler around ligero, the leaf taken from the plant’s upper primings.
What It Tastes Like
Famous Smoke Shop sums up the Double Ligero blend as a full-bodied smoke led by black pepper and earthy tones with a rich cocoa side. Holt’s also rates the line full.
Who It’s For
- Experienced palates that find most toros too tame.
- Fans of wide gauges who like a 60-ring cigar in the hand.
- LFD regulars who favor the Natural wrapper over the darker Maduro.

About the Double Ligero
The name comes from the filler: Famous Smoke Shop says the blend holds twice the normal dose of high-priming ligero. Holt’s names Litto Gomez as the blender, and La Flor Dominicana’s site notes that each Double Ligero vitola is made in both Maduro and Natural.
Pairing and Storage
Match its weight with a peated Scotch or well-aged rum from the full-bodied list in our cigar pairing guide. Between smokes, rest it in a humidor kept the way our humidor basics guide describes.
