“Havana + Tobacco Factory” Tour
Description
The cigar is part of Cuba's culture for many reasons. It is a tradition inherited, in an organic way, from its first inhabitants, the Cuban aborigines. Its cultivation and consumption was transmitted from generation to generation creating a domain of the most complex in America. Its exceptional quality worldwide became a source of wealth. Its cultivation was a source of work for many peasants, while in the cities the sophisticated Havana cigar was produced, thus the culture of tobacco shops emerged. The rings and lithographic labels, which identify them, show great beauty and colour. But they are much more, they occupy an indispensable place in the visual heritage of Cubans.
For this reason we propose the following tour so that you can discover this fascinating world of cigars and why not, a tour of the largest city in the Caribbean: Havana. Creativity, authenticity, empathy and knowledge are our keys to provide you with a unique and unforgettable experience of Cuba.
