Dominican Republic

[RobBooth]

Off to the Dominican Republic in a few weeks.
Seems there are a few factory tours available. La Aurora, LFD being ones I'd probably opt for. Can't see one for Davidoff unfortunately.
Anyone have any recommendations on places to pick up some cigars?
I've found this place online which has a store but any other recommendations would be gratefully received : https://cigarcountry.com/

Whereabouts in the Dominican? If you are going to Punta Cana you're going to be a long way from the factories. Duty Free was pretty good and had a separate section for Arturo Fuente and Opus X when I was there a few years ago. Cubans were still expensive and expect to pay US prices for NCs unless you buy local cigars which were pretty good actually. Lots of fakes available from the official vendors on the beach.

Cheers Peejay - yep, it's Punta Cana. I think it's a couple of hours from the hotel to the factories.
thanks for the info!
