Quintero Panetelas

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.

Made using the short filler or tripa corta technique from Vuelta Abajo and Semi Vuelta tobaccos. Medium-bodied and a good starter for novices.

TASTING NOTES

This slender, medium-bodied smoke is aromatic and features notes of cedar, toasted nuts, and sweet spice, with an underlying creamy sweetness.

The light-bodied profile is best complemented by a classic morning pairing like a Black Coffee or a simple, dry Amontillado Sherry.
