Made by Litto Gomez in the Dominican Republic, La Flor Dominicana is one of the finer cigars being made today, despite the fact that it has fallen from grace a bit. The 2000 Series is rolled with an Habana 2000 wrapper - a hybrid of Havana seed tobacco and Connecticut shade. The result is a spicy, reddish-brown wrapper very close in appearance and flavor to Cuban cigars, yet the leaves are very smooth like Connecticut shade leaf. Sort of the best of both worlds. Taken in combination with the excellent craftsmanship and well-aged vintage fillers, the 2000 series is a remarkably delicious smoke. Medium-bodied in strength.


What did Litto do?

The 2000 was below par compared to LFD's other lines, imho. I dunno about "fallen from grace" since I'm not sure if the 2000 was ever a highly touted smoke. Do they mean the 2000, or the entire brand?

No clue, but I'm assuming they're talking about the 2000.
Still, a rather odd thing to say......

You are correct, it used to be a cameroon wrapper. Still have a box. Wish I could see the cbid listing, don't see it currently, and a lazy search doesn't reveal it on the mothership

Well, the 2000 line has been almost completely discontinued for a while now, so that's probably what they mean. This would be old stock with probably about 3 years of age on it.

LFD is trimming their portfolio, I remember reading that there were several cigars they were no longer going to be producing.

Their use of Habana 2000 as a wrapper is a de facto faceplant.

I just don't love that wrap. And it is very common.

I bought a fiver of them a while back on here, I had one so far, thought it was pretty good. I'll have to have another.
