Founded in 2013, Dominican Big Leaguer Cigars founder Francisco Almonte was introduced to tobacco by his father, a master roller for Arturo Fuente Cigar Factory.  The factory is located in Tamboril, a small town where its main activity is the manufacturing of cigars; it is believed that most of the cigar rollers in the Dominican Republic come from this town.

This cigar had a chocolate wrapper with a slight oily sheen and a heavy pre-light aroma that smelled like sweet hay.  An effortless draw produced a lot of smoke.  There was just a slight resistance, allowing a nice introduction to creamy smoke.  Spices developed on the palate as well as through the nose.

 It is a medium bodied cigar packed with great flavor.  Its sweet aroma was very rich, consistent and alluring – it is what really makes this cigar stand out.  The Dominican Big Leaguer is not only an extremely well made cigar, but it will leave a lasting impression with any cigar smoker.
