Por Larranaga Cuban Cigars
"There's peace in a Larranaga, there's calm in Henry Clay" reads the first half of the fifth couplet in The Betrothed, an 1890 poem by the celebrated English writer Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936). From this high point,
the brand has shrunk to just one handmade model and a few machine-assisted styles. It was created in 1834 by Ignacio Larranaga, likely making it the oldest continuously-produced Havana brand still in existence.
Por Larrañaga is a brand with a long history. Founded in 1834 it enjoys well-earned reputation for its quality and the attractiveness of its presentation.
All the tobacco in the Por Larrañaga range comes from the Vuelta Abajo region and the cigars are made using methods of production - "totalmente a mano, tripa larga" - totally hand made, long filler, "totalmente a mano, tripa corta" - totally hand made, short filler.
