On February 19 and 20, we opened our doors with the same excitement as always to welcome those who chose to experience our Factory Tour during the Procigar Festival 2026. For us, it is more than a visit; it is an invitation to discover firsthand our essence, our passion, and the commitment to quality that defines us.
The experience began at the farm, where it all starts: from seed selection and soil preparation to cultivation, harvesting, and the curing process. There, we reaffirmed that quality is never a coincidence, but the result of dedication, time, and respect for every stage of the process.
Inside the curing barn, a grading tasting session took place — a space for analysis and learning about tobacco, guided by our Master Blender, Manuel Inoa. Participants explored in depth the nuances, construction, and character that distinguish each cigar, understanding that truly appreciating it requires knowing its origin, its process, and the intention behind its creation. In an intimate setting, tradition and expertise came together in a single smoke, reaffirming the value of knowledge as an essential part of the ritual.
At the factory, the experience reached an even more special level. Each participant crafted their own cigar, selecting the bunch, blend, and wrapper, guided by our artisans, who proudly share their expertise and dedication. Watching each cigar take shape in their hands reminds us, year after year, of the purpose behind our work.
We thank everyone who chose us, took an interest in our story, and decided to experience it with us. Each edition inspires us to continue sharing the very best of Dominican tobacco culture, with the same commitment and passion that have guided us since day one.
