Description
The La Flor Dominicana Carbon Flower is an ultra-limited, full-bodied cigar collaboration between La Flor Dominicana (LFD) and ProjectCarbon, a boutique brand renowned for high-end carbon fiber cigar accessories. Debuted at the PCA 2026 trade show, this project seamlessly blends historical tobacco craftsmanship with sleek, modern functionality.
Packaging & Concept
The name "Carbon Flower" creatively pieces together the "Flor" (flower) from LFD and "Carbon" from ProjectCarbon.
- The Case: Instead of a traditional wooden box, these cigars are sold exclusively in a custom, two-piece pure carbon fiber travel case.
- Utility: The case is airtight, exceptionally lightweight, highly durable, and holds up to a 58 ring gauge cigar. It is intentionally designed to be kept and reused as a rugged weekend travel carry long after the initial cigars are smoked.
Blend & Specifications
Tony Gomez of LFD designed a dark, imposing blend explicitly to match the "ominous, solid, and textured" presence of raw carbon fiber.
- Size: Toro Extra (6" x 54) featuring a distinctive pigtail cap.
- Wrapper: Rich Mexican San Andrés Maduro.
- Binder: Mexican San Andrés.
- Filler: Powerful, estate-grown Dominican tobaccos harvested from LFD's famous La Canela farm.
Flavor Profile
True to the legendary reputation of La Flor Dominicana, the Carbon Flower is a full-bodied powerhouse. It delivers a deeply savory and bold smoking experience.
- Core Notes: Expect an intense profile dominated by dark cocoa, heavy espresso, and earth.
- Transitions: The smoke evolves to reveal complex layers of molasses, cracked black pepper, and charred wood, maintaining a refined balance without turning aggressive.
