We are a 100% Costa Rican company with experience since 1997 in the manufacture of premium tobacco cigars, we have own brands and we produce private brands, which are achieved from the creation of a personalized blend next to the client, the selection of the colors of the wrapper and the sizes that the customer prefers, in addition to the above the client provides the packaging, designs and names of his preference and we pack and ship the product to any part of the world.
We are a company that has own plantation since 2009, mainly to produce wrapper and binder. This plantation is in Ecuador because the climate benefits the plantation. We perform a permanent inspection and control of our curing and fermentation processes. Our products reach thousands of users around the world through our brands, and the more than 15 private brands we manufacture.
We are a company that has a box, ashtray and humidor factory since 2016, located in the same property where the cigar factory is. We use wood of great quality and beauty to manufacture the humidors, boxes and other accessories that accompany our products.
Our history began by growing quality tobacco, it is in our blood, it is our strength, and this is how we got involve in this exciting world of premium cigars. The first crops were developed in Costa Rica, years later it was in Ecuador and today we are proud to have two big farms where we produce some of the finest wrappers, exceptional binders and flavorful fillers.
Our wrappers and binder fermentation process takes place in two countries with two completely different climates and environments. The first four to eight months the fermentation take place in Ecuador, when each priming has passed at least half of its process, the quality tobacco is packed and shipped to Costa Rica. Once the tobacco arrives and is properly prepared, like a chef in his kitchen, Mr. Olman cures and finalizes each priming, seeking to satisfy the tastes of each client and the countries to which our premium cigars are committed.
Our unique factory is located in Puriscal, a small town in Costa Rica, where since 1997 our cigar artisans have been handcrafting some of the best premium cigars in the world. From the beginning, the factory adopted traditional Cuban techniques, but over time a culture and structure were created between Cuban and New World traditions. The factory has 7 structured and defined departments where together they manage to make around fifteen thousand premium cigars per day.
In 2016, the box factory was created in order to offer classic and modern alternatives for premium cigar boxes for our customers. Today, more than two thousand boxes are made per month, 50 different types of boxes, with world-class finishes and quality. The development of the box factory is a fundamental part of Tabacos de Costa Rica’s vertical integration plan.
Since our beginnings, the development of quality products has remained our daily work and the backbone of the daily operations of the entire organization, as well as one of our greatest challenges and satisfactions year after year.
Today we have a design and packaging team, this team helps and advises our clients in the process of creating and developing these products, following the quality standards that characterize us.
