#ELOsoFumarTakes #356thTake This week, we're honored to welcome a next-generation voice in premium cigars — Litto Gomez Jr., son of founder Litto Gomez and Vice President of Sales at La Flor Dominicana. From the tobacco fields of the Dominican Republic to the boardroom — and back to the blending table — Litto Jr. is helping shape the future of one of the most respected boutique cigar houses in the world.   We'll dive into: • His journey growing up inside LFD and stepping into leadership • The story behind blending Solis — a deeply personal project that challenged him to define his own palate • How LFD is redefining full-flavor, medium-bodied cigars without sacrificing strength • Why staying family-owned, hands-on, and quality-driven still matters in a world chasing scale • What's next for LFD as the torch is passed to the next generation   Founded in 1994, LFD built its name by doing things differently — growing its own tobacco, embracing bold profiles, and making decisions the old-school way… often over coffee at the family table. Now, the legacy continues with a new perspective grounded in tradition.   If you appreciate cigars with power, purpose, and personality — this is an episode you don't want to miss. Tap in. Light up. Let's take it deeper.   #ELOsoFumarTakes #356thTake #LaFlorDominicana #LFD #BoutiqueCigars #FamilyLegacy

This unique moment, surrounded by history and the aromatic ambiance of Havana, solidified Kay's appreciation for the Partagas Series D cigars.

Our visit to the La Flor Dominicana booth at the 2025 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show continues an annual tradition for the Cigar Coop Coalition team. This year, the difference is that the LFD sales team has a new Vice President in Litto Gomez Jr, and a new branding and marketing Vice President in Eddy Guerra. Since sales is a primary activity at the Trade Show, this was Litto Jr's show. Watching Litto Jr, he handled his responsibilities with poise and confidence. We were thrilled to have the opportunity to sit down with Litto Jr. for our annual interview. There is plenty to look forward to this year, as La Flor Dominicana has revamped the Suave and introduced new packaging for the Oro line. Full PCA Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-wAx

The 2025 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show was the first for Bentley Tobacco. Bentley Tobacco traces its roots back to 1878, when it started out as a pipe manufacturer. After nearly a century in business, the company broadened its mission to include premium tobacco products, with a particular focus on high-end cigars. Martin Schuster, representing the Schuster family, leads Bentley Tobacco. Until recently, the company primarily centered its efforts in Europe. However, late last year saw the launch of a U.S. division, Bentley Tobacco | USA, with Jonathan Carney, the former Vice President of La Flor Dominicana, stepping in as CEO and co-owner. Although Bentley began its U.S. rollout last year, the 2025 PCA Trade Show marked a significant debut for Bentley Tobacco | USA. Full PCA Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-wwf

The 2023 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show was quite special for La Flor Dominicana. There was a lot of excitement over the return of owner Litto Gomez's eponymous line, the Litto Gomez (LG) Diez. It's the first time we've seen the LG in nearly eight years.
