La Flor Dominicana’s Tony Gomez has had a successful run over the last few years. After training in both the U.S. and the Dominican Republic, Litto Gomez let the younger Gomez begin to take charge of certain projects for the company. It started with the highly successful Chapter 1, which was followed up last year with Capitulo II, two limited cigars in the company’s iconic chisel shape. This year, the cigar is neither a limited edition, nor a chisel. It’s called La Nox, Latin for the night. The release is probably best known for its packaging: a round, black circular box that uses magnets instead of hinges. As for the cigar itself, it’s a 6 1/2 x 50 toro extra with a dark Brazilian wrapper, Mexican San Andrés binder and Dominican fillers from the company’s La Canela farm. La Nox was first shown off at the 2015 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show in July and began shipping last month.
