• Cigar Shape
  Toro

  The standard Toro shape is 6 inches by 50 ring gauge.
• Cigar Section
  Box-Pressed (Square)

  A box pressed cigar is a cigar that has a square shape. Originally, this shape came from the practice of packing round cigars tightly in cardboard boxes which are then compacted using a manual press. The cigars are thus pressed into each other and become a "squarish" or semi-square shape. Today, cigar makers use square shaped molds or a wooden trunk press for their box pressed cigars, achieving a more defined square section.

  6"

  This cigar is 6 inches long, or 152.4 mm.
• Origin
  Nicaragua

  Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
  Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.

This leaf is rich and flavorful thanks to the temperate climate of Ecuador and the quality of its volcanic soil.

  Ecuador is the perfect place to grow binders, because it is located on the Equator and it has rich soils too.

Ecuador supplies Connecticut and Sumatra type binders to many cigar factory in the world.
