LFD is one of my favorite smokes. Their connecticut is creamy and spicy, and more interesting than any other shade-wrapped cigar (IMO). The #1 (maduro? that's what I'm describing here, anyway)is dominated by the wrapper, and I get a distinct anise taste from this cigar. The 2000 #2 is a smooth cameroon cigar, and the 2000 #3 is spicy enough to compare favorably to a short story.
