力圖·戈麥斯在制造雪茄之前是一名珠寶商人,而且生意做的還很成功,。直到有一天,,他的商店遇到了劫案,他的職業(yè)之路改變了,。他開(kāi)始生產(chǎn)雪茄,,成為雪茄制造商。為了紀(jì)念他之前的生意,,他在2012年發(fā)布了多米尼加之花的金色(Oro)系列,,一款裝在金色鋁管里的雪茄。在西班牙語(yǔ)里,,Oro是黃金,、金色的意思。如今,,力圖·戈麥斯推出了新的包裝形式,,再次供應(yīng)市場(chǎng)。
以前,,金色系列是每盒五支,,鋁管裝,。如今,改用雪茄盒裝,,每盒20支,,不獨(dú)立裝在鋁管里。公司稱,,這種包裝是滿足客戶的需求,。
戈麥斯說(shuō),我們一直堅(jiān)信這款雪茄的品質(zhì),,它們代表的不僅僅是產(chǎn)品,,還是從逆境中誕生的標(biāo)志。
多米尼加之花的金色系列有三款,,都是54環(huán)徑,,6英寸。一款是不規(guī)則的形狀,,鑿子狀,,售價(jià)18.2美元。一款是6號(hào)自然色,,一款是6號(hào)馬杜羅色,兩款的零售價(jià)都是17.4美元,。
雪茄的茄衣是尼加拉瓜種植的位于植株高層的古巴種子煙葉,,茄套、茄芯都是多米尼加煙葉,。
力圖·戈麥斯告訴記者,,預(yù)計(jì)今年9月這個(gè)系列會(huì)有三個(gè)新品上市。
Before Litto Gomez made cigars, he had a successful business as a jeweler. One day, his store was robbed and his career path changed forever. In honor of his previous occupation, Gomez released La Flor Dominicana Oro in 2012, cigars packed in golden tubos (oro is Spanish for gold). Now the line is getting some new packaging options which are shipping now.
Previously, Oro was only available in boxes containing five cigars in tubes. Now, the line will also be available in boxes of 20 untubed cigars. According to the company, this change was in response to customer demand.
“We’ve always believed in these cigars. They represent something deeper than just a product; they’re about refinement born from adversity,” says Gomez.
La Flor Dominicana Oro presently comes in three vitolas, all of which measure 6 inches by 54 ring gauge: Chisel, a wedge-shaped figurado ($18.20); and two toros that both retail for $17.40, the No. 6 Natural and No. 6 Maduro. The blend consists of a high-priming Cuban-seed wrapper grown in Nicaragua with Dominican filler and binder.
These aren’t the only changes for the brand. “There will be three new sizes coming in September,” Gomez told Cigar Aficionado.
The La Flor Dominicana Oro Chisel was most recently the No. 12 cigar of 2022.
