About
"Vegas de Santiago"
Cigar Manufacturing Factoria
Our families have been growing quality tobacco, in the volcanic
mountains of the Puriscal region of Costa Rica since more
than 80 years.
The volcanic soil and the special climate of this mountainous
area with its right proportion of rainfall and humidity, combined
with a period of dryness is ideal for growing tobacco
and curing
it naturally. Another benefit is that we do not need to use any
pesticides
in this altitude.
Several years ago, one of the great Cuban masters, in manufacturing premium cigars, Don Luis Santana Lamas,
joined our
company. He brought us his life-long experience in seeding,
growing, drying and curing tobacco and manufacturing world-class
cigars. All in
all, it takes nearly 4 years to create a
Vegas de Santiago cigar.
The Longfiller and Binder of our cigars
are entirely made
from our own tobacco Costa Rica Ligero, grown here in
the mountains of Santiago de Puriscal.
The outer
leaf is from specially selected plants in Nicaragua,
Mexico, and Ecuador.
However, we do not try to
imitate Cuban cigars. We are simply setting new standards in quality, taste and
aroma for cigar
aficionados around the world, and our new
"Chaman" (Shaman) Line is our
testimony.
Our tobacco is 100% Costa Rican Gold! Our cigars have a
very smooth draw, and can be smoked to the finger tips!
That is why so many
Cigar Aficionados
love cigars
from Vegas de Santiago!
