Boutique Brands Spotlight: Gran Habano Cigars
Saturday, March 03 2012

By Gary Korb

Gary KorbAs our boutique cigar series continues, this week we look at Gran Habano Cigars. Though sometimes mistakenly underrated, this Honduran-based tabacalera produces some of the most flavorful handmade cigars at pretty reasonable prices. They also make some of the best wide ring cigars. First a little back story, then we'll take a look at their three foremost selections.

Gran Habano Factory Miami 1It all started in 1920. At that time Guillermo Rico's grandfather was growing black tobacco in Bucaranga, Colombia. By 1946, Guillermo’s father had succeeded him, and today the company is run by Guillermo and his son George. The main factory in Danli, Honduras was opened in 1998, and this past January, the Ricos opened a factory on the famed "Calle Ocho" (8th Street) in the "Little Havana" district of Miami, Florida. This is where the company will produce their new "Gran Habano Miami" cigars. The first cigars will be marketed under the name "Black Corojo." Made as an extension of their Gran Habano #5 Corojo series, the cigars will don the cigar industry's first Black Corojo wrapper.
