Description
The La Flor Dominicana TCFKA Mysterio Natural is a 7 x 54 perfecto with a pale-brown Nicaraguan body and darker leaf capping the head and foot. Cigar Coop’s October 2013 report calls those caps oscuro; Neptune Cigar names them Connecticut broadleaf maduro and lists binder and filler grown in the Dominican Republic.
What It Tastes Like
We found no Cigar Aficionado score for this Natural. Neptune Cigar calls it full-bodied, with spice, earth, cream and sweetness. For family context only, Cigar Coop’s March 2016 review of the 2015 TCFKA M Collector’s Edition, a separate barber-pole blend, found cedar and cream up front with black pepper building late.
Who It’s For
- Fans of shaped cigars who like a perfecto that shows dark tips at both ends.
- LFD smokers wanting the lighter-colored half of the pair.
- Anyone with a free evening, since a 7-inch perfecto is no quick smoke.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Two-tone build: Nicaraguan body, oscuro caps (Cigar Coop, 2013)
- Also made in an Oscuro wrapper for a side-by-side test
Cons
- No major-magazine score for this exact cigar that we could confirm
- Only Neptune Cigar names the leaf on the dark caps; Cigar Coop just calls it oscuro
About the TCFKA Mysterio
Cigar Coop’s 2016 review traces the M Collector’s Editions to Mysterio, a set of artisan-style La Flor Dominicana perfectos, and says trademark issues prompted the TCFKA label. The outlet’s 2013 and 2014 coverage of the 7 x 55 Mysterioso Collector’s 2013 describes that barber pole as Connecticut broadleaf maduro spiraled with Ecuadorian Connecticut shade.
Pairing and Storage
Since Neptune Cigar calls it full-bodied, try a heavier pour from our cigar and drink pairing guide, like aged rum or peated single malt.

La Flor Dominicana TCFKA Mysterio Natural FAQ
What does TCFKA stand for?
The Cigar Formerly Known As. Cigar Coop reported in December 2014 that the phrase points back to the Mysterio and Mysterioso names, dropped earlier that year.
How is the Mysterio Natural different from the Oscuro?
The colors are reversed. Cigar Coop described the Natural as a Nicaraguan leaf with dark ends and the Oscuro as an Ecuadorian oscuro with natural ends.
What leaf caps the ends of the Mysterio Natural?
Cigar Coop’s 2013 report simply calls it an oscuro wrapper. Neptune Cigar is more specific and names Connecticut broadleaf maduro, laid over a 7 x 54 Nicaraguan-wrapped body.
How strong is the La Flor Dominicana TCFKA Mysterio Natural?
Neptune Cigar, the only source we found that grades it, calls it full-bodied. That describes body rather than nicotine strength, and we found no Cigar Aficionado review of this Natural.
