Vegas Robaina Cuban Cigars
Named after Don Alejandro Robaina who has become a legend in Cuba. An average of 80% of the tobacco he grows is deemed worthy of wrapping Cuban cigars for export as opposed to the 35%other plantations in region produce.
These cigars have a very strong tobacco flavor and the larger cigars are fuller bodied then the smaller sizes in this line.
The Robaina family have farmed tobacco continuously since 1845 on their precious vegas (fields) at Cuchillas de Barbacoa situated in the San Luis zone of the Vuelta Abajo tobacco region.
Vegas Robaina cigars were introduced in 1997 as a tribute to the legendary ability of the family's patriarch Don Alejandro Robaina, who is pictured on every box. They salute not only his skills but also those of his whole family and the great community of farmers on whose labours the reputation of Habanos is built.
All five Vegas Robaina vitolas are dressed with wrappers from the Robaina family's farm and are totalmente a mano, tripa larga - totally hand made, long filler.
