La Aroma de Cuba transcends roots that date back to the late 1880s in Cuba, where the brand became an early favorite of Winston Churchill. In the midst of Cuba’s rebellion against years of Spanish conquest, Churchill arrived on the island in 1895 as an eager young lieutenant. There, the genesis of his brilliant military career and his avid passion for handmade cigars emerged.

Master cigar-maker Jose ‘Pepin’ Garcia and his son, Jaime Garcia, blend the entire La Aroma de Cuba brand to an award-winning standard from only the finest premium aged tobaccos. The Garcia family grows and harvests a magnificent variety of binder, filler, and wrapper leaves in Nicaragua’s most desirable tobacco-producing regions, including Estelí, Condega, Jalapa, and Namanji.

The original La Aroma de Cuba blend is drawn from a premium aged recipe of select Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos patiently assembled beneath a shimmering Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. The ultra-popular blend has scored numerous top ratings in a variety of classic shapes. Its rich and earthy finish is medium-bodied and reveals subtle, succulent distinctions in every shape. Indulge in a classic profile lauded as the summit where taste and value converge.
