Description
The La Flor Dominicana Oro Maduro 6 Tubo is a bold and luxurious premium cigar created for experienced smokers who appreciate deep flavour, impressive strength, and refined presentation. Measuring six inches with a substantial 54-ring gauge, this full-bodied Toro delivers a long, satisfying smoking experience. It is presented in an elegant gold-coloured aluminium tube, reflecting the meaning of Oro, the Spanish word for gold. Handcrafted in the Dominican Republic, the Oro Maduro 6 features carefully selected Dominican binder and filler tobaccos grown on LFD’s La Canela farm. These rich tobaccos are covered by a dark, oily Nicaraguan Habano maduro wrapper that contributes both visual appeal and considerable intensity.
The flavour profile is complex and robust, opening with notes of black pepper, earth, and charred oak. As the cigar develops, layers of espresso, cocoa, leather, subtle sweetness, and dried fruit emerge, creating a balanced combination of spice and richness. Despite its considerable power, the La Flor Dominicana Oro Maduro 6 Tubo maintains excellent depth and character throughout the smoke. Its rich blend and handsome presentation make it an outstanding choice for a special occasion or a relaxing evening when a strong, flavourful cigar is desired. Size: 6 x 54. Note: these are now shipping in plain packaging with authentic bands underneath.

About La Flor Dominicana Cigars
La Flor Dominicana (or LFD) is a family-owned company started by Litto Gomez and Ines Lorenzo-Gomez in 1994. Before making cigars, Litto was in the jewelry business. A traumatic experience convinced him to switch careers—he was bound and robbed at gunpoint in his jewelry store. When he began his new path, his cigars were called Los Libertadores, and they were quite mild. Things have obviously changed.
Today, La Flor Dominicana is defined by its ligero, the strongest type of leaves found on the upper portion of a tobacco plant. It’s always been an industry term, but Gomez normalized the word and brought it to the cigar-smoking public with his Ligero and Double Ligero brands. Inside those cigars are binder and filler that he grows today on his farm in the Cibao Valley of the Dominican Republic. According to Gomez, he couldn’t find the strong ligero tobacco he was looking for, so he decided to grow it himself.
Gomez’s desire for self-sufficiency has paid off and he’s become as much farmer as he is cigarmaker. He grows his tobacco in La Canela, a dry, hot microclimate within the Dominican Republic’s Cibao Valley. It’s precisely these conditions that make his tobacco stronger, spicier and more concentrated. Gomez runs La Flor with his wife, Ines, and two sons, Tony and Litto Jr.
