According to a report by Gregory Mottola at
CigarAficionado.com, La Flor Dominicana cigars previewed their new Factory Press III cigars at a privately held dinner last Thursday in Port Jefferson, Long Island, NY.
The dinner included a course-by-course tasting of La Flor Dominicana cigars and concluded with the unveiling of the Factory Press III, a large, sharply trunk-pressed 6 1/4 inch by 58 ring gauge cigar covered in a dark, oily Connecticut-broadleaf wrapper.
In addition to the broadleaf wrapper, the new release also distinguishes itself with its Nicaraguan binder. (Previous releases of Factory Press were made with Dominican binders.) The Nicaraguan tobacco was introduced to give the cigar a new strength and to vary the tasting profile from the last release. The filler tobacco comes from Gomez’s La Canela farm in the Dominican Republic.
