Premium Cigars at Match Cigar Bar
La Flor Dominicana
The Flower of the Dominican Republic. Bold, intense, and unapologetic — grown from their own soil, rolled by their own hands.
From Basketball Courts to Tobacco Fields
Litto Gomez was a basketball player from the Dominican Republic who fell in love with tobacco — and with Ines Lorenzo, whose family had been growing it for generations. In 1994, he married into the Ledesma tobacco dynasty and founded La Flor Dominicana, a brand that would change the cigar world's perception of Dominican tobacco forever.
While other makers chased Nicaraguan leaf, Gomez bet everything on his own soil. Today, LFD grows its own tobacco on over 3,000 acres in La Canela, controlling every step from seed to finished cigar. The result: blends with a character you simply can't get anywhere else.

The Collection
Signature Lines
From award-winning figurados to massive double ligeros, every La Flor Dominicana line is a statement. Here are the ones worth knowing.
Andalusian Bull
#1 Cigar of the Year 2015
The cigar that changed everything. A powerful figurado that earned Cigar Aficionado's highest honor. Complex, rich, and built for the serious smoker who appreciates craftsmanship at its peak.
Air Bender
Chisel Torpedo • Full-Bodied
A chisel-pressed torpedo that consistently pulls high ratings. Full-bodied with layers of pepper, leather, and dark espresso. The kind of cigar that demands your full attention.
Double Ligero
Massive Ring Gauge • Intense
Thick ring gauges packed with ligero-dominant filler for maximum intensity. This is LFD at its most aggressive — waves of pepper, earth, and raw Dominican power. Not for beginners.
Ligero
The Original • Bold
The line that built the brand. Bold Dominican character with a balance that made cigar lovers take notice of what Dominican tobacco could really do. Where the LFD story began.
La Nox
Dark Maduro • Nighttime Smoke
A dark, brooding maduro wrapped in mystery. Full-bodied with notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and dried fruit. The perfect cigar for late nights in the lounge with a pour of aged bourbon.
Chapter One
Small-Batch • Limited
A small-batch, limited release that showcases what LFD can do when they pull out all the stops. Refined yet powerful, with a complexity that unfolds slowly across the entire smoke.
Litto Gomez Diez
Personal Blend • Litto's Selection
Litto Gomez's personal blend — the cigar he'd smoke himself. A testament to decades of experience, blended from the finest tobaccos in the LFD inventory. As close to the man's vision as you can get.
“We don't follow trends. We grow our own tobacco, we make our own blends, and we do it our way.”
— Litto Gomez, Founder
