What does the marriage of a handsome, sun-toughened Cuban tobacco farmer and a beautiful young cigar roller from the Dominican Republic have to do with you? Forgive a bit of boastfulness, but, everything. 

Enrique Ynclan fled Cuba to the Dominican Republic to begin a new life, as Fidel Castro was taking hold of the “old island.” Here in the Dominican, he met Belitha Peralta, and so our story begins. The couple named their son “Felipe” after the oldest fort in the New World, Fortaleza de San Felipe, which happens to be in the home region of Belitha. Felipe, earning the tobacco business almost from birth, took over his family’s small factory at an early age following the death of his father. Unfortunately, Felipe met an early and tragic death due to his other passion, sailing, when he was lost at sea in a storm. But even in his short career, Felipe touched the people in the factory, inspiring their passion for quality and craftsmanship. Today, you will see part of our homage to him, “F.Ynclan,” on every box. The other part of our homage, you will experience in the quality, smoothness, and unique character of every cigar created under the “La Flor de Ynclan ” name. 

Today, La  Flor de Ynclan carries on a tradition of creating the finest hand rolled cigars from the best of tobaccos. Filler from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. Binder from Indonesia. Wrapper of Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade. La Flor de Ynclan, like the marriage of the Cuban farmer and Dominican roller so many years ago, marries the finest of tobaccos with the expertise of skilled craftsmen to bring you a fine cigar.
