Cuban Cigars

Cuban cigars are produced and distributed by Habanos S.A., offering 27 brands including Cohiba, Montecristo, Partagás, and Romeo y Julieta. Havana House imports these cigars to the UK, verifying authenticity through quality checks.

Production Process

Made from Cuban-grown tobacco leaves cured and hand-rolled by skilled Torcedores. The precise hand-rolling technique ensures consistent construction, airflow, and combustion.

Quality Factors

Cuba's volcanic soil and tropical climate yield tobacco with distinct mineral content. Leaves undergo dual fermentation and aging processes ranging from 6 months to 5 years. Government-regulated production through Cubatabaco maintains standards, with Habanos S.A. implementing anti-counterfeit holograms and box codes.

Flavor Profiles by Brand

  • Bolívar: Full-bodied with earthy notes
  • Hoyo de Monterrey: Mild with creamy undertones
