Aloha brothers! As I'm sitting here at The Row Bar in Restaurant Row on the island of Oahu enjoying the breathtaking views of the turquoise sea and lush tropical foliage all around, I have a special cigar I'd like to share with the Bruhs - the La Flor Dominicana Andalusian Bull. During my travels to “The Gathering Place” of Oahu, I was introduced to this exquisite cigar by the Aloha Ques.
Zachary Rogers (Beta Psi ’96) told me it had quickly become a favorite among Da Bruhs, known for its smooth but bold taste that pairs perfectly with island life. Based on ’96’s recommendation, I had to get my hands on a few of these to enjoy while taking in the natural beauty that surrounds us here in Hawaii. As the rich aroma fills the air, it transported me straight to the Dominican Republic. I want to share this find with the Cigar Bruhs. Kick back, P.S.S.I.T.A, and let me tell you about this amazing cigar.
“La Flor Dominicana Andalusian Bull is hard to find in stock but totally worth the effort of hunting down. Probably the most sought-after cigar in the world.” - Bro. Marquis Jones, 2-12-Mu Alpha.
La Flor Dominicana Andalusian Bull was created by Litto Gomez in 2006. It is named after the famous Andalusian bullfighting breed. The Andalusian Bull features a torpedo-like head and tapered foot. It is10 inches long with a ring gauge of 52 at its widest point. Only two skillful Master Rollers produce the LFD Andalusian Bull box of 10. It is made in limited (yet ongoing) production batches, meaning it’s only available in much smaller quantities, making them the most coveted cigars for sale in the industry.

![The Spanish Fighting Bull (Toro Bravo, toro de lidia, toro lidiado, ganado bravo, Touro de Lide) is an Iberian heterogeneous cattle (Bos taurus) population.[1] It is exclusively bred free-range on extensive estates in Spain, Portugal, France and Latin American countries where bull fighting is organized. Fighting bulls are selected primarily for a certain combination of aggression, energy, strength and stamina. In order to preserve their natural traits, during breeding the bulls rarely encounter humans, and if so, never encounter them on foot.](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5ff067_83991a2db63148ba85a3a87f7a07d727~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_980,h_980,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto/5ff067_83991a2db63148ba85a3a87f7a07d727~mv2.jpg)
