History of Cardenas Cigars
The history of Cuban cigars is one of uncompromising quality and skill,
handed down from generation to generation. Armando Cardenas is the son of
Marcelino Cardenas and has learned the craft over the past decade. Each
Cardenas Cigar is hand-rolled to perfection with the finest long leaf
original Cuban-seed tobacco.
Cardenas cigars are completely hand rolled in the Downtown Sacramento
family shop every day. Each and every cigar is a blend of the finest hand
selected tobacco ingredients. Using the best blend of Cuban seeds, fresh
tobacco leaves from the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Nicaragua and Honduras.
Cardenas cigars are carefully and lovingly prepared.
Cameron, Ecuador, Indonesia and Connecticut natural and maduro leaves are
used as wrappers to create a smooth and glossy finish. The optimum blending
in the fillers, binders and wrappers produce the special medium-to-full
body flavor cigars with pleasant, nutty taste that is the signature of
every Cardenas cigar. Being hand-rolled in America has given this product
line nationwide attention. The Cardenas Double Corona has been featured
and reviewed in the most popular cigar magazines and websites. Cardenas
Cuban Round is as close a representation to the quality and strength
of the finest cigars created in Cuba.
