El Criollito by A. Flores is a cigar with a story. Originally made for the European market it became so popular it went worldwide. Abe Flores wanted something approachable, flavorful and truly Dominican at heart—and El Criollito delivers just that.
This blend wraps an Ecuador Criollo ’98 wrapper around a Mexican San Andrés binder and a rich mix of Dominican Criollo ’98 fillers. The smoke is right in the sweet spot of a medium body giving you plenty of flavor without being overpowering. Each puff has notes of cedar, earth, natural tobacco, coffee and a touch of white pepper. Some say they get hints of almonds or cinnamon too, every stick is a little adventure.
In 2021 the blend was updated to include more Dominican tobacco, to highlight the brand’s roots in Santiago, Dominican Republic. The result is a cigar that feels authentic, smooth and satisfying—crafted with the same care and passion that has made PDR famous around the world.
If you like cigars with character, balance and a touch of Dominican pride, El Criollito is ready to impress. Light one up and see why it’s a global favorite.
