La Flor Dominicana Andalusian Bull is Cigar Aficionado’s #1 Cigar of the Year for 2016, scoring 96 points. That award validated what the cigar community already knew: this was something different. Not just a strong Dominican — a fully considered piece of work with a story built into every detail, from the shape to the band to the name.
The size comes from an antique mold Litto Gomez found in Belgium. It’s a Salomón — a true figurado that starts at 64 ring gauge at the foot and tapers down to 54 at the head. Most rollers can’t make this shape correctly. Only two master rollers at Tabacalera La Flor produce the Andalusian Bull, which is part of why availability is perpetually limited. The name is a nod to Andalusia, the region of southern Spain where Litto was born. The band’s emerald green mirrors the Andalusian flag, the font is based on Pablo Picasso’s handwriting, and the matador silhouette completes the visual story.
The Ecuadorian Corojo wrapper is a reddish-brown mahogany — oily, toothy, and striking. The binder and filler are 100% Dominican from LFD’s La Canela farm: Criollo ’98 and Pelo d’Oro. Litto and his son Tony spent significant time on the blend. As the taper changes through the smoke, the draw resistance changes with it, producing genuinely different flavor phases from foot to head. Leather, black pepper, and caramel dominate the wide section. Hickory, spice, and subtle sweetness develop as the cigar narrows. The finish is long, dry, and complex. Full-strength throughout.
