HISTORY
Quintero’s smooth, medium-bodied taste makes it ideal for those seeking to experience the flavour of Havana at an affordable price.
It is one of the few Havana brands not born in Cuba’s capital city. Instead, its founder, Augustin Quintero, with his four brothers, set up shop in the south coast city of Cienfuegos, known as the “Pearl of the South”. The tobaccos selected for Quintero’s filler blend came from the Vuelta Abajo and Semi Vuelta zones.
All Quinteros are made using the ‘tripa corta, totalmente a mano’ – short filler, totally handmade technique.
This diminutive cigar still delivers all of the brand’s signature flavour. A great starting point for those entering the world of premium cigars.
TASTING NOTES
This short, medium-bodied cigar provides notes of earthy tobacco, cedar, and a savoury spice, often with a hint of bitterness and dark chocolate.
It makes it an ideal pairing for a powerful shot of a full-bodied Espresso or a rich, sweet Dark Rum.
