Royal Agio Cigars announced today that they will be distributing La Flor Dominicana brands in Germany and The Netherlands. La Flor Dominicana will be formally featured in the Royal Agio Cigars booth (#4.B18) at this year’s InterTabac tradeshow in Dortmund, Germany, which takes place from September 21st – 23rd.
This partnership between two passionate premium cigar makers from the Dominican Republic kicks off at InterTabac, Europe’s largest tobacco-related trade show. With the addition of the prestigious La Flor Dominicana line-up, Royal Agio expands its Dominican premium cigar portfolio in Europe, complementing its own Balmoral Anejo XO and San Pedro de Macoris handmade lines produced at their boutique factory in San Pedro de Macoris, Dominican Republic. Royal Agio also currently has a strategic distribution partnership with Drew Estate, the Nicaraguan based cigar manufacturer for brands such as Liga Privada and Undercrown, in select European markets.
La Flor Dominicana is one of the most sought-after premium cigar brands in the world, further highlighted recently by Cigar Aficionado’s #1 Cigar of the Year ranking in 2016 with Andalusian Bull. Since Litto Gomez and his wife, Ines, started the company in 1996, they have had an enduring focus on quality, creativity and innovation, which has laid the foundation for the success story of La Flor Dominicana. The basis for all unique La Flor Dominican cigar blends is the use of premium tobaccos from their own plantations, combined with select top tobaccos from all over the world, resulting in renowned blends such as Ligero, La Nox, Double Ligero and – of course – Andalusian Bull.
When asked about the new distribution partnership, Boris Wintermans, 4th generation CEO for Royal Agio Cigars, stated, “We are honored to partner with Litto and Ines in Europe and have a tremendous amount of respect for the high level of quality and craftsmanship for their handmade cigars. La Flor Dominicana’s innovative portfolio of products nicely complements our current line-up of handmade cigars in Europe and we look forward bringing these great brands to cigar lovers in Germany and The Netherlands.”
Litto and his son, Tony Gomez, will be present in the Royal Agio Cigars booth #4.B18 at InterTabac to help launch and support the new distribution partnership.
