La Flor Dominica?

[Sauer Grapes]

If this is the factory press III, then they are fairly new and it may just need some rest. However, if the cigar has been stored properly, there really isn't an excuse for this happening.

That being said, even the best companies have a few bad cigars in each box or bundle from time to time.

I've had very good luck with La Flor and enjoy them immensely. Me thinks you just had bad luck.
