La Aroma del Caribe Pasion
La Aroma del Caribe Pasión is crafted by Jose 'Pepin' Garcia and Jaime Garcia from the finest premium tobaccos. The premium tobaccos used come from the family's prized lands, located in Nicaragua's best growing regions: Estelí, Jalapa and Namanji. La Pasión is wrapped in a beautiful, glossy Shade Grown wrapper from the fields of Namanji. The tobacco plants thrive in a unique microclimate, located 18 miles east of Estelí, where the Garcias recognised the untapped potential of the region more than a decade ago. The hot days, cool nights and fertile black soils produce tobacco with exceptional taste, quality and aroma. Today, more than a third of the 300 hectares of private property are dedicated to growing Shade Grown wrappers.
About La Aroma Del Caribe
La Aroma Del Caribe (known as La Aroma De Cuba in the US market) traces its origins back to the late 19th century, when Cuba was fighting against Spanish rule. Today, the brand is forging a new legacy in Nicaragua, preserving the passion and expertise of the first Cuban torcedors.
Jose “Pepin” Garcia, a master torcedor and master blender originally from Cuba, oversees the production and blending of the brand’s cigars at the factories in Esteli (Nicaragua).
