From the Earth to the Heavens
FOR OVER 150 YEARS
It’s not just our passion. It’s our reason for existing.
Since 1865, we’ve been
mastering the art of tobacco
growth and craftsmanship.
From the rich fields of Cuba
to the sun-kissed soils of
Nicaragua and Honduras, we
have tilled the land to create
the finest handmade cigars –
from the earth to the heavens.
For five generations, the finest
tabaquero tradition has been
rolled into every cigar that
bears our name. Tobacco is in
our blood, in our soul, and in
our relentless determination
to perfect every step of the
cigar-making process from
seed to smoke.
