LA FLOR DE CANO

La Flor de Cano is a brand that was born in Havana during the first half of the 20th century. It all began in 1932 when Juan Cano Sainz and his wife Consuela decided to hire the services of a cigar roller to make cigars, literally, on their kitchen table.

With the help of close relatives, Juan and Consuela’s business grew into a sound family company and in 1936 they registered the brand in Spain, which went on to become their largest export market.

In 1939 their young son, Ernesto, joined the business and, after he had obtained a degree from Havana University in 1947, he became an equal partner in the company, which was re-named J. Cano E Hijo.

In the early 1950s, the company invested in machines to make many of their cigars and then in the 1960’s the family moved to the United States where Ernesto pursued a successful career in the cigar industry.

In Cuba, La Flor de Cano cigars continued in production and, aside from a brief period (1988-1992) when a small range of hand-made sizes were produced, the emphasis was on machine made sizes. More recently this also included short filler, handmade sizes.

Today, although the brand has been selected on several occasions to produce a Regional Edition for various markets (including the UK), all La Flor de Cano are Tripa Corta. Totalmente a Mano – short filler, totally handmade – Havanas composed of Vuelta Abajo and Semi Vuelta leaf.

All cigars within the La Flor de Cano range are handmade using leaves grown in one of the most popular Cuban tobacco regions, Vuelta Abajo and Semi Vuelta zones. 

SELECTOS NO. 

The Selectos No.3 is the third UK Regional Edition from the brand, following the Short Robusto (2010) and the Gran Cano (2013). 125,000 Selectos No.3 cigars have been produced, each sporting a unique band printed with the size name. They are presented in 5,000 cabinet boxes of 25 cigars (SLB’s).

The relatively long and slim vitola provides a perfect format for Flor de Cano's elegant blend to evolve throughout the hour or so that it takes to enjoy. It is a pleasure to smoke now but will no doubt age with the grace abd refinement of its illustrious predecessors.

The Selectos No. 3 has a sweet floral beginning that includes a citrus freshness. As the cigar progresses, this develops into a rich spiceness without ever losing its charm and tipping into bitterness.
