La Flor Dominicana Double Claro is LFD’s playful return to the old‑school Candela tradition, dressed in an Ecuadorian wrapper cured to keep its natural green glow. Litto Gomez built the blend from tobacco grown on the La Canela farm, pairing that wrapper with a Nicaraguan binder and Dominican fillers that stay true to the brand’s roots. The cigar is rolled in Tamboril, where LFD controls every step from seed to final inspection. On the palate, it brings grassy tea notes up front with earth, spice, and a touch of sweetness drifting through the smoke. You’ll also catch hints of cedar, pepper, and graham that round out the medium‑bodied profile.

If you’ve avoided Candelas, this one makes a pretty convincing case to rethink that decision.
