The West Tampa Tobacco Company White cigar is the creation of Rick Rodriguez, a well-known and greatly admired 25-year veteran of the cigar industry. In 1950s Cuba, Rick’s grandparents were involved in the cigar making business and migrated to Tampa, Florida where they established themselves and their craft. They passed their knowledge and love of tobacco to Rick. The White is a medium-bodied premium that features a smooth pink-hued Habano wrapper covering an Ecuadorian Habano binder and a Nicaraguan filler from Pueblo Nuevo, Ometepe, and Jalapa. With its rich creamy profile, the cigar will appeal to the contemporary as well as the traditional smoker. The cigars are handmade in Nicaragua at the Garmendia Cigar Co. factory.
