This Geek Critique has been generously sponsored by mpurtle01 (Matt).

The Cigar: La Flor Dominicana 1994 Conga (5.0 x 52)

The Hype:  This cigar is to celebrate the 20 years Litto & Inez have been in the cigar business.  They started the company Los Libertadores in 1994 and started producing a Dominican cigar.  The brand La Flor Dominicana wasn't started until 1996 when the original investors parted ways.  The cigar is comprised of a binder and fillers from La Canela farm with a Mexican San Andres wrapper.  They come in five sizes, with one of those being a special size released in a beer stein.  They are packed in boxes of 20.

The Reviewers: We are picking reviewers who have not done a any geek critique in the past two months nor are scheduled to do one in the near future.

1. CrazyK (Karl)
2. Camshaft83 (Cam)
3. Rebecca Silverwolf (Rebecca)
4. jharrisx5 (Jason)
5. Kevin48438 (Kevin)

Due Date: August 10, 2015

Note: A reviewer who posts their review late will receive neutral feedback. A reviewer who does not post at all will receive negative feedback. There are always exceptions to the rule and a reasonable excuse for tardiness or a no show will be respected and thus not counted against the reviewer. Our sponsoring members and our administrators make the choice of who is to participate in any particular Geek Critique and can be better informed of their choices with this new initiative in place.

Thanks again to Matt for taking this one on and providing the cigar. THANKS!! And happy smokin'  :cigarguy:

I'm sure you'll get this one filled up quick. Anything LFD is pretty tasty.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

Every loaf of bread is a tragic story of a group of grains that could have become beer but didn't.

looks tasty, good luck reviewers! The beer stein looks cool as well.
I used to sit outside all night and drink bud lite and smoke Marlboros and everyone thought I was a bum. Now I sit outside all night and drink craft beers and smoke cigars and everyone thinks I have class.
