Charatan Cigars

History & Heritage

The Charatan name is steeped in British cigar tradition, originally associated with fine pipes and tobacco dating back to 1863. Revived as a premium handmade cigar brand, Charatan is now produced at the renowned Nicaraguan factory in Estelí, where master blenders combine quality and consistency to meet the discerning standards of UK aficionados. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Blend & Construction

Charatan cigars are crafted from a carefully selected blend of ligero, seco, and volado leaves - each contributing a distinct element to the profile. The ligero leaves add body and aroma, the seco adds balance and smoothness, and the volado enhances combustion and structure. The result is a cigar with perfect construction, excellent draw, and a flavour profile that’s both rich and approachable. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
