OUR CIGARS |
|
| |
"Tobacco from pre-Embargo Cuban
seeds are the foundation of all our present crops." |
|
| |
|
|
| |
We grow all our tobacco
naturally, from our 40+ genetically pure pre-Castro seed
varieties, or from new strains we've created from these
ancestral seeds. They represent the pinnacle of
Cuba's Golden Age of cigars, after 300 years of
refinement ... before Castro nationalized the island's
cigar industry. Cuban tobacco has never since matched
that standard of excellence. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
We've captured the
long-forgotten memory of true, 100%
pure Habano tobacco, before JFK made Cuban cigars
illegal. Nowhere else will you find cigars being
produced from these seeds, some going back 60 years.
These genetical treasures thrive in the unique soil and
microclimate of Santa Marta de Puriscal, Costa Rica.
Monitored, pampered, aged,
blended and manufactured using the best of the
traditional Cuban process, their inherent smoking
qualities are enhanced to perfection. Not many smokers
have experienced cigars like these. |

Fundación Ancestral™
|
|
| |
The most revolutionary cigar
introduction in 40 years! Limited edition cigars in 5
blends:
Pinar del Rio 1941
Vuelta Abajo 1940
Artemisa 1944
Remedios 1942
Santa Clara 1943 |
|
| |
|
|
| |
These varieties were the
archetypes for Cuban cigars for decades, until the Cuban
Embargo. Names honor the growing region and year Cuban
researchers introduced these new varieties to the
island's leading tobacco producers. Loaded with flavor
and brawny ... but with none of the harshness and bite
of modern Cubans.* These are pure, original Cuban
tobacco varieties, grown exclusively for seeds directly
off the island. Each is a true puro, containing only
tobacco from different primings (leaf-cutting) of that
one variety. 4 popular shapes, all long-filler and hand
made. The power, flavor, and aroma of the classic
Havanas of bygone days. |
