Meeting Litto Gomez…again

Thursday night found me in the heart of Jayhawk land as I took one of my best friends to meet his hero, Litto Gomez of La Flor Dominicana cigars.

I met Mr. Gomez for the first time a little over 3 years ago.  Many of you know that I regularly attend cigar events where I get to meet and talk with the “celebrity” manufacturer of the cigars being featured.  There are usually special retail offers available that day and plenty of food and libations.  Mr. Gomez was the honored guest at one my first cigar events in the summer of 2007.  He is a quiet man who is truly passionate about his product and a real master.  At that event in 2007, I was introduced to his cigars and found a brand of cigars that is absolutely fantastic.

Like authors touring at book-signings, cigar manufacturers tour to promote a new line of cigars.  La Flor Dominicana has the Air Bender line (released earlier this year) and one particular size that was released just a few weeks ago.  I had that particular cigar last night and was transported to a higher level of enjoyment.  Sitting there with Krishna, Mr. Gomez, and all of the other cigar appasionados, I really enjoyed myself.
