La Flor Dominicana Double Claro

The golden (green) days of yore

Seeing green? No need to adjust the ol’ monitor settings, your eyes are working just fine. The Double Claro from La Flor Dominicana features the criminally underused Candela wrapper. If you’re unfamiliar with Candelas, I’ll break it down nice and easy. These wrappers are delicate, tasty beasts that deliver flavors unlike any other leaf. Flip the calendar back a few decades, and Candela was the most-popular wrapper on the market.

But I know what you’re really here for. You want to know what this weird looking green cigar tastes like! So let’s get into it. The Candela wrapper delivers a soft grassy note that’s similar to tea, while the Dominican long-fillers provide a complex balance of earth and spiciness. You probably read this statement a lot, but there’s no other way to say it — Double Claro is a completely unique experience from LFD, that any and every cigar lover should try.
