Flor de Las Antillas

ByPerry Zeilinger

Legendary father-and-son cigar-makers Pepin and Jaime Garcia blend Flor de Las Antillas from the finest Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos tucked under an oily, reddish-brown Sun Grown Nicaraguan wrapper in a series of soft-box-pressed sizes. Enchanting notes of cayenne pepper, nutmeg, and cinnamon with a medium finish. Flor de las Antillas means “Flower of the Antilles,” and is a reference to the Garcia family’s native Cuba, where their cigar-making journey took root generations ago. This cigar is my go-to favorite cigar from my fathers out of a sun grown to smoke.
