Don Lino Africa

Description

Back from the Safari with a whole new look.

Nestor Miranda of Miami Cigar Co. was inspired to create the Don Lino Africa after spending time traveling the African continent, and falling in love with the culture and scenery. The cigar was blended to capture the spirit of Africa, and became one of the brand’s most popular lines. Now, more than a decade after the original release, Don Lino Africa is being reimagined with a little help from AJ Fernandez.

Made by hand at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez Cigars de Nicaragua S.A. in Esteli, the revamped Don Lino Africa blend starts with a hand-selected long-filler blend of Dominican Piloto and Nicaraguan leaves from Ometepe, Jalapa, and Esteli. The binder is sourced from Cameroon in Africa, covered by a sultry Habano 2000 wrapper grown in Ecuador. Medium-full in body, box-pressed, and smooth as silk, you’ll be greeted by a fantastic draw and notes of exotic spice, cedar, roasted nuts, and leather. Grab a box and experience a blend inspired by one of the most beautiful places on Earth, the African Savanna.

Good news! Don Lino Africa has received an impressive 93-rating, noting: “Solidly packed and symmetrically pressed, this bronze robusto smokes evenly, delivering a creamy smoke that layers the palate with notes of black and white pepper, caramel, toast and fruit before the long finish of chocolate and leather.”

I loved this cigar. It paired great with the black-spiced rum I was drinking and would pair well with bourbon. Overall, I would say it had a great flavor, good even burn, and a great draw. I smoked this baddy to the last 3/4", honestly. It came in my Cigar of the Month box for July, 2023, and I will be keeping an eye out for these to go on sale. I love to shop deals, but would also consider them for a special occasion. Just made the Wish List, thanks.

I remember having bought a box of these Dumas way back around 2010. Of course this was the Nestor Miranda original. What an outstanding smoke that was. I couldn't find enough good words to say about it. Then I believe it was discontinued around 2014 or 15, and unfortunately, never to be heard from again until just recently. This AJ Fernandez version is absolutely top shelf, and well worthy of five stars, but nothing near the cigar that the original was... In my opinion.

The Africa Kifara was my go to stick years ago then for some reason it was discontinued. The Don Lino Africa line was brought back so I immediately got a box of the Tembo’s. It’s a very good smoke. Not exactly the same as the original but still great. Well constructed, burns perfectly from beginning to end. I like a full bodied smoke and on a scale of 1-10 I’d say it’s just about a 9. My only complaint is that I like an oily finish. That build up of flavor in the last 1/4 of the stick is what I really savor and enjoy. That said I highly recommend this smoke if you haven’t tried it yet or if you didn’t know the Africa line was back!

Great tasting cigar. Cigar storage at CI was perfect. Slow & even burn after resting for 10 days. I live 1800 miles away and all my purchases rest. I would buy another box.

The Cameroon binder paired with the Caribbean tobacco, always a win for me.
