Excellent cigar. Great earthy flavors. Spiced earth, cinnamon, and a wonderful oiliness of the wrapper. This gave puffs of thick smoke with a nice white ash. I got about an hr and 34 minutes from this and construction was spot on. Great burn and draw. These I always keep on hand in my humidor.

This one was right up my alley. Baking spices, cinnamon, nutmeg, cocoa and a nice sweetness to round it off. Typical Drew Estate construction 👊🏻

Wonderful smoke with complex flavors! Great draw and perfect construction make this an excellent choice in the price range. Full body eith notes of nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla. Retro is a bit spicy and somewhat overwhelming past the middle third. Another homerun from Drew Estates.

I’m not a huge Liga fan outside of the papas frittas and dirty rat, but the T52 was right up my alley. Very complex blend of bakers spice, vanilla sweetness, and cocoa. The retro has a good kick to it as well. I know the drew estates Ligas are known for their insane amounts of smoke production but smoke times is too much. Good mouth feel though just an over bearing amount of smoke

Liga privada uma das marcas sem ser cubanas, que aprecio bastante. Depois do blend N9, este é meu top10 noncuban. Charuto forte e com sabor. Sensacional do início do fim

This seems a more balanced and ‘zesty’ cigar when compared to the Liga Privada No. 9 – whereas that cigar is bold black coffee and rich tobacco, this cigar offers more notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and baking spices – there is more going on. It’s not that one is better than the other, as they’re both complex cigars, but I’d give the nod to this one if you want a more nuanced experience.

Next time the L40 and the Dirty Rat, this is my favorite Liga. Rich, flavorful, stalkcut tobacco. Puts out clouds of smoke, just like you would expect from DE.

Love the T52! Full, dense smoke with a slightly tighter draw then the usual LP’s but it’s still excellent.
