Joya de Nicaragua
Founded in 1968 by Simón Camacho and Juan Francisco Bermejo, the factory was originally called the Nicaragua Cigar Company. One of the very first companies to process tobacco, it withstood the Sandinista revolution and the civil war, which set fire to it and dropped bombs on its roof.
Once the revolution was over and reconstruction completed, the company returned to private hands and a new era began.
Under the influence of Dr. Cuenca (and now his son), the company grew from strength to strength and gained its current reputation by supplying a wide range of hand-rolled cigars to delight even the most seasoned cigar aficionados.
