The Weekly Word on Pipes & Cigars
September 30, 2013
Cigar of the Week:
La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero
La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero
$14.99
La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero cigars were introduced in 2003 using a powerful blend of Dominican longfiller and binder leaves finished in silky Ecuadorian wrappers that shimmer with a dark and oily patina. Flavors of wood and coffee bean dominate with sweet notes on a long, spicy finish.
These are strong cigars – LFD recommends you eat before you smoke.

Cigar News of the World
Cuban cigars made in Miami sell for $700 in Europe
Inside a Little Havana cigar rolling business in the heart of Cuban Miami, Maria Sierra’s gnarled fingers perform the same dance they did for more than three decades for Havana’s famed El Laguito cigar factory.
She cuts a teardrop from a broad tobacco leaf then glues, wraps and twists it onto the end of a near-finished cigar, forming the small fan that’s the signature of high-end Cuban cigar rollers.
More than five decades after a trade embargo banned imports of cigars from Communist-ruled Cuba, the majority of US cigar imports come from other Caribbean countries as well as Central America.
Yet in Miami a niche industry is growing, centered on a few dozen elite Cuban rollers who make special edition cigars that sell for as much as $700 per box in Europe.
