The sun god “Dios del Sol” appears in all Central American cultures and symbolizes the essence of beginnings, life, and positivity. He is depicted in stone carvings on pyramids, temples, and stone calendars, and is considered one of the most important deities of the indigenous peoples.
With this beautiful cigar, KOPP Tobaccos has not only released its first in-house cigar but also a incredible value for price.
Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese technique for repairing broken ceramics using lacquer mixed with gold, silver, or platinum, highlighting the cracks instead of hiding them. The method emphasizes the beauty of imperfection and the history of the object.
The 1888 Series originally starts in 2008 with domenican tabacco (red band) which was introduced to the 120th Aniversary, the series has been expanded with Nicaraguan tabacco (blue band).
Paradiso cigars are a collaboration between Don Pepin Garcia and Ashton Cigars. The Paradiso Elegancia cigars are produced at the Tabacalera My Father factory in Estelí, Nicaragua. In the United States, all Paradiso cigars are known under the name San Cristobal, as this name cannot be used outside the U.S. due to trademark restrictions.
Beautyful to look at, but also with a historical background. Stauffenberg Edition 3, handmade in Honduras in the bold Toro 6 x 54 format. Produced in the family-run La Pequeña Vega factory in Danli.
When I’m faced with an unfamiliar cigar, it’s not just the appearance of the wrapper (cigar) that needs to convince me, but also the design of the band. For me, the band is just as much a part of the cigar as its flavor—both are personally important to me. What about you?
Saved from oblivion, to remain forever in our memory...
This Matilde-cigar celebrates both the beginning of something new and the “revival” of
something old.
Behind *Renacer* (rebirth) lies a legacy from the Dominican Republic and the
comeback of a master of his craft – Jose Seijas.
In the Dominican city of La Romana, Jose was vice president and master blender of the
world's largest cigar manufacturer, Tabacalera de Garcia, for over 30 years.
After countless premium blends, including for Cuban cigars, he finally took his well-
deserved retirement at the end of 2011.
However, the deeply rooted idea of producing his own cigars remained. Jose wanted to
use all his skills to create the best cigars.
No unnecessary compromises, only the finest tobaccos, and taking the time to create
the perfect blend. And so it came to pass, as it had to and should...
Jose began the journey to “Matilde” together with his two sons, Enrique & Ricardo.
But “Matilde” was no stranger. Jose chose this name because of its deep roots in the
Dominican Republic.
The “La Matilde” was first founded in Santiago de los Caballeros in 1876 as one of the
first cigar manufacturers on the Dominican island.
The cigar era ended with the death of its owner in the early 1900s; all that remained was a faded memory of days gone by.
With the *Renacer*, after more than 100 years, the focus is back on the essentials: For the flavorful filler of this comeback, Jose chose tobaccos grown in the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. The “wrap” is bundled with a binder from its Dominican
homeland and crowned with an Ecuadorian H-2000 wrapper.
