Flowing lava has shaped the landscape of Nicaragua for millennia. Its fruits are still bearded today in many forms, but most notable is Her Volcanic Soil. The gift of the volcano to Nicaragua has been the contributor of her finest fruits. The nutrient filled soil, tumbled with volcanic rock, is responsible for growing some of the worlds finest black seed tobaccos. With these tobaccos came possibly the largest eruption known in Nicaragua's history, where she has taken center stage as the worlds largest exporter of premium cigars.

In 2006, a successful & adventurous Beverage Industry Pioneer was fortunate enough to stumble upon that little-known wonder of Granada, Nicaragua. Climbing to the peak of Volcano Mombacho, with only a fine Nicaraguan cigar in hand and the brilliance of Granada as a backdrop, the cigar was blissfully cut and lit. The pureness of the altitude and aromas of the smoke forged a unique reflection on the impact of his journey and brought about the grand beginning: a clear vision that this experience must be shared with the world.
