What Makes Don Pedro the Best
-
History of Quality
Since the time of the Spanish sovereignty, Puerto Rican tobacco has enjoyed a reputation for good quality, which allowed it to sell in competition with the best grades of Cuban tobacco. As might be expected, over time Puerto Rico’s tobacco industry developed a culture for superior quality that still exist today.
- Our Blend
Puerto Rican tobacco is grown at higher altitude in soil that is virtually devoid of chlorine. Therefore, leaves produced from these soils are aromatic and free-burning, making a truly exceptional cigar.
As a result, a common practice for many years by cigar makers in Cuba as well as other parts of the world was to blend their tobacco with Puerto Rican filler tobacco to enhance the quality of the cigar. This blending practice is documented in numerous articles in Cigar Aficionado magazine.
However, over the years the agricultural sector in Puerto Rico has given way to industrialization leading cigar makers to turn to neighboring countries in order to supply the market.
The smaller pockets of tobacco still grown on the island allow us to maintain a traditional blending practice that makes our cigars so special.
