La Flor Dominicana Suave Maximo (6×54)

Summary

Litto Gomez built his reputation on big, ligero-loaded, full-throttle Dominican bombs. So when the original Suave came out in 1994 as LFD's first-ever release, a genuinely mild, delicate smoke, it was almost a different brand entirely. For 2025, Litto and Tony Gomez went back and asked a simple question: if we built that cigar today with everything we know now, what would it be? The answer is the reimagined Suave Natural. Gone is the old Connecticut-seed wrapper.

In its place is an Ecuadorian Corojo leaf over a Mexican San Andrés binder and fillers grown on Gomez's own La Canela farm in the Dominican Republic, all rolled at Tabacalera La Flor S.A. The result in this 6x54 Máximo is mild-medium in strength but anything but mild in flavor. Halfwheel called it a fantastic cigar and gave it a 92. Cream, cedar, campfire smokiness, toasted nuts, and a thread of spice that builds beautifully toward the finish. This is LFD with the volume dialed back and the craftsmanship dialed all the way up.
