CLE 1916 Tabacalera Eiroa Robusto Cigar - 1 Single

1916 TABACALERA EIROA

1916 Tabacalera Eiroa marks a new project from Santi Eiroa, the fourth generation of the Eiroa family to work in tobacco. The name points back to 1916, when Generoso Eiroa began growing cigar tobacco, giving the cigar a connection to more than a century of family history.

The blend uses five-year-old Habano H2000 leaf tobacco for both the wrapper and binder, with Corojo and Pinareño-seed tobaccos in the filler. Pinareño has a long history in Honduras, but it is also known for being more delicate and lower yielding than Corojo, making its use a unique part of the cigar’s recipe. For Santi, the blend is meant to sit between the fuller profile preferred by his father, Christian Eiroa, and the milder style favoured by his grandfather, Julio Eiroa.

EIROA

The Eiroa family farm is one of the most technologically advanced tobacco farms in the world. Adhering to strict hygiene and environmental standards set by the Bayer Company, Julio and Christian Eiroa still roam the fields together to ensure they are delivering only premium tobacco, grown in the best of earthly conditions. The Eiroa Family farm is located in the Jamastran Valley, and yields only Grade A tobacco.

The C.L.E. Cigar Factory is a landmark in Danli for originally being one of two theaters owned by Antonio Kafati, Christian Eiroa’s grandfather. “Cine Aladino opened in 1975 and converted into the CLE Cigar Factory where the EIROA cigars are made.

The manufacturing technique has been perfected by a small group of rollers where the tobacco is bunched in a way to guarantee perfect construction. This method, perfected by the Eiroa family assures the burn, construction and blend is exactly the same in every single cigar through every size. The manufacturing process is only the last step of a process that began five years prior to the very first cigar being rolled. The tobacco itself is truly the key ingredient because it was grown and fermented specifically for this blend in the Eiroa Cigars.
