The first week of the NFL playoffs is in the books and we are now less than a month away from the Super Bowl. As it has done since 2015, La Flor Dominicana is sending a special football-themed cigar to retailers in the state that is hosting the Super Bowl.

This year’s event, Super Bowl LVII, will take place on Feb. 12 in Glendale, Ariz. Next week, the La Flor Dominicana Special Football Edition 2023 will head to stores. It’s a 5 5/8 x 54 perfecto vitola that uses an Ecuadorian habano wrapper over a Dominican binder and filler. Like previous Special Football Editions, this cigar features an image of a football made out of tobacco; for this year’s release, La Flor Dominicana is using Connecticut broadleaf tobaccos for the accents.

It has an MSRP of $20 and is limited to 1,000 boxes of 10 cigars.

Note: The following shows the various La Flor Dominicana Special Football Edition vitolas. Some of these cigars may have been released after this post was originally published. The list was last updated on April 17, 2024.

La Flor Dominicana sends the Special Football Edition to stores in the host state. This is the second time that the Arizona Cardinals stadium in Glendale, currently known as State Farm Stadium, has hosted the event since La Flor Dominicana launched the Special Football Edition Series.
