Description
The La Flor Dominicana La Nox is a 6 1/2 x 50 toro built around a dark Brazilian wrapper that its maker calls sweet, laid over a San Andrés binder and Dominican filler. La Flor Dominicana says that filler blends Piloto and Pelo de Oro tobaccos from its own farms, and lists La Nox as its own line.
What It Tastes Like
We could not confirm a dated Cigar Aficionado or halfwheel review, so these notes come from the maker and two retailers. La Flor Dominicana describes a cigar dark in both color and taste, smooth yet rich. Holt’s tasting summary points to dark cocoa, clove and anise resting on walnut and cedar. Neptune Cigar names coffee, cocoa, leather and raisin. Holt’s grades its strength as full, and Neptune calls it full-bodied.
Who It’s For
- After-dinner smokers wanting a blend its maker pitches for nighttime.
- Fans of Brazilian maduro leaf over Dominican filler.
- La Flor Dominicana regulars exploring beyond the Ligero lines.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Filler grown on La Flor Dominicana’s own land, per the maker and Holt’s
- Cocoa appears in both the Holt’s and Neptune tasting descriptions
Cons
- No independent published review or score we could verify
- Full strength may overwhelm a newer smoker
About the La Nox
According to Holt’s, La Nox is a Dominican-made Litto Gomez blend, and its band carries starry night artwork that nods to Vincent van Gogh.
Pairing and Storage
Those cocoa notes and full strength point toward an aged rum or peated single malt, both suggested for full cigars in our strength-based pairing guide. Keep it at steady humidity with help from our humidor basics.
