“There’s a distinct cinnamon and coffee cake quality to this small cigar, which burns evenly and produces a lot of smoke. Notes of chocolate and citrus also come through, building to a spicy finish.” Cigar Aficionado, 92 points.

This cigar was named in honour of the legend, and family patriarch, Don Carlos Fuente Sr and so naturally had to be a masterpiece of a cigar.  It features hand selected rare and vintage tobaccos and aged as much as 10 years, creating rich and flavourful cigars.

Cigar Aficionado Rating 95

The Flor De Las Antillas brand was released by My Father Cigars in May 2012 in the USA using a variety of Nicaraguan tobaccos, their trademark double binder and a wrapper leaf grown in  the open sunlight. They named the brand for Cuba, the largest of the Antilles Islands, which are called Antillas in their native Spanish.

These box pressed cigars are delicious from the first puff, with notes of nutmeg, white pepper and just enough strength without being overpowering. They start with the signature My Father spice and have a rich cocoa flavour. They produce a beautiful white ash giving a great finish.

"Sophisticated and rich with a savory, leathery core that complements every sweet note of marzipan and white chocolate without losing its bold character. The finish is toasty and delicious."-Cigar Aficionado

Wrapper: Sun Grown

Binder: Nicaragua

Filler: Nicaragua

Strength: Medium to Full

"This miniature perfecto is made with a nipple foot. Its salt-and-pepper character is brightened by creamy notes of vanilla, brown sugar, nuts and some coffee that segues into a sweet caramel finish. It has a lush draw and burns evenly."- Cigar Aficionado (90 Points).

"Wrapped in a very toothy cover leaf, this dark mini-perfecto draws beautifully, showing a spicy smoke of black and red pepper. Sweetness enters at the halfway point with notes of raisin and marshmallow. The finish is earthy."- Cigar Aficionado (91 Points).
