Litto Gómez and Inés Lorenzo built a brand defined by bold character and daring shapes; their Andalusian Bull became Cigar of the Year (2016) and a cult object due to its figurado form, rolled by only a few torcedores.
La Flor Dominicana was founded in 1996 by Litto and Inés Gómez after entering the industry from scratch, establishing a vertically integrated model in Tamboril that positioned them as leaders of strong, character-driven Dominican tobacco. From the beginning, LFD focused on growing its own tobacco in La Canela and mastering intense ligero blends—setting a new tone for Dominican strength.
With iconic lines like Double Ligero, Air Bender, and the award-winning Andalusian Bull, LFD has come to represent power, innovation, and meticulous craftsmanship. Their unique vitolas—like the patented Chisel—and their intentionally small-batch production keep LFD firmly in the boutique, connoisseur-favorite category.
