The La Flor Dominicana Litto Gomez Diez Americano hits like a Dominican flavor bomb, packing serious firepower in its 5¾"x46 parejo frame. This box-pressed stogie features LFD's signature dense roll with a nearly-black Pelo de Oro wrapper that glistens under light. At $324 per box of 24, it's built for enthusiasts who crave full-bodied kicks - though you might want to sit down before lighting up.
The first inch delivers LFD's trademark pepper blast - think black peppercorns crushed over bitter dark chocolate. Smoke output stays medium, but the nicotine punch comes through fast. Mid-way, it evolves into espresso-soaked leather with occasional sweet whispers of burnt caramel. Final third brings mineral earthiness that longtime smokers will recognize from LFD's volcanic soil tobacco.
Triple cap holds firm through multiple cuts. Burn line stays razor-sharp despite the oily wrapper. Compact ash holds past two inches, though you'll notice increasing tar buildup near the nub. Best paired with aged rum to balance the intensity.
Pure Dominican puro using LFD's estate-grown tobacco from Cibao Valley. The Pelo de Oro wrapper undergoes extended fermentation (2+ years) to develop that signature oily sheen. Blended with 4-year-old filler leaves for complexity that unravels best after 12-18 months aging.
