Cuaba, like
Cohiba, is an Indian word used by the Tainos in Cuba at the time when
Christopher Columbus arrived to the Island. The Cuaba tree had a highly
combustible wood that was used to light their cohibas.
The Cuaba
brand recreates the style of cigars that existed in the 19th century,
when Habanos pointed at both ends became fashionable. All Cuaba cigars
have that peculiar form denominated double figurado. One century later,
in 1996, this traditional style was taken up again at the Romeo y Julieta
factory, where the Cuaba brand is completely made by hand following the
most traditional methods. For that reason, Cuaba brand has been chosen
for the recovery of a format so highly appreciated in the range of Habanos:
the Salomones.
Because of
their complex manufacture, the double figurados are at the height of the
rollers cigar-making art. If only for that reason, they deserve
to be a part of the selection of every fan who prides himself on it.
Manufactured
with the best leaves from the region of Vuelta Abajo in Cuba and submitted
to a rigorous selection, the Salomones de Cuaba stand out for their excellent
taste and flavor, with an evolution and complexity in their smoking that
will be enjoyed by Habanos lovers.
Presented
in boxes of 10 units each and with the traditional medium to full flavour
of Cuaba, they are a very valuable option for the true Habano fans, who
will find an attractive format in its 184 mm in the length and 57 ring
gauge that will please the most demanding palates.
Salomones
de Cuaba will be available in the upcoming weeks at the most select sales
points around the world.
