La Flor Dominicana Salomon

I'm just down the road from you in Woodbridge. I picked up two of these last night across from Potomac Mills (not sure of the rules here about mentioning B&M's) for $24 each. I gifted one away and smoked the other one and I enjoyed it very much for almost two hours.

LFD rep just told me these are new cigars rolled from tobacco harvested in 06 & 07. Info is also on the box according to him.

Welcome to BOTL I'm curious, what shop did you pick them up from, I haven't looked at the shops in Woodbridge because it's to long of a drive to be a normal visit, but I am in that area every so often?

Nice, thanks for the info, I hope these are just as good as the ones released in 09 (probably try one during the playoffs, should last most of the game :cbig. I'll have to take a closer look at the box next time I go to the shop, I plan on going there again this week to pick up some more.

OVTC across from the Potomac Mills mall. It's only 15 minutes from Alexandria.

I can confirm LFD has recently started shipping Natural Salomons again but I'm not sure of the price point. Here in PA when we've had them over the years they've gone for about $24 - $26 and we don't have any additional tobacco tax added to our 6% sales tax. I recommend picking one or two up, one to smoke, one to sit.

Yep, picked up some more and the box says clearly on the front " The vintage filler and binders we used in this second edition of Salomones were grown in our farm in La Canela, Dominican Republic in 2006 and 2007, the wrappers are aged habano."

Thanks, never been to that one. Been to the one in Springfield and thought it was ok, but not to thrilled with their selection at the time. And probably a little biased against them because when the person range me up (who looked like a manager there) he pronounced the 2003 cojonu as Co-Joe-New when asking the other guy to look up the price at the register.
