About Us
In the sun-drenched fields of Estelí, nestled within the rugged terrain of Nicaragua, a tale unfolds. It is a story of passion, heritage, and an unyielding commitment to excellence, a story that gave birth to Epico Handmade Cigar, an emblem of true craftsmanship and the embodiment of Nicaraguan pride.
Deep within the verdant valleys, where the soils bear the secrets of generations past, stands Finca Dorada. This sprawling tobacco estate, bathed in golden sunlight, is where the journey begins. Under the watchful eye of Don Roberto, a seasoned tobacco farmer with hands weathered by years of dedication, the finest leaves are cultivated, nurtured, and harvested. Don Roberto's unwavering dedication to the land and its bountiful harvest ensures that only the most exceptional tobacco finds its way into Epico cigars.
Leaving the fields behind, we find ourselves in the heart of Estelí, where a small, yet extraordinary, workshop hums with the symphony of creation. Here, Maestro Alejandro, a maestro de tabaco renowned for his expertise, orchestrates a meticulous process. Each leaf is hand-selected, carefully inspected, and sorted to ensure that only the pinnacle of perfection graces the fingertips of the skilled artisans.
Within the workshop, a select group of torcedores masterfully blend the leaves, binding them together with unrivaled precision. Among them is Juanita, a fourth-generation cigar roller whose deft hands dance gracefully, imbuing each Epico cigar with her family's legacy. And there's Miguel, a young apprentice whose passion for the craft is fueled by the desire to carry on his father's legacy as a tobacco artisan.
As the cigars take shape, the air fills with the rich aromas of spice, cocoa, and subtle hints of sweetness—an intoxicating symphony that lingers long after the final ember has faded. The cigars are then nestled within aromatic cedar-lined boxes, awaiting the moment they will be released to enthusiasts who crave the extraordinary.
Epico Handmade Cigar is more than just a smoke; it is a testament to the spirit of Nicaragua—a land where untamed beauty meets unwavering determination. From the vibrant city streets of Estelí to the lush valleys of Jalapa, each puff of an Epico cigar carries the essence of this extraordinary region.
As you savor an Epico Handmade Cigar, you become part of a rich tapestry of flavors, history, and tradition—a testament to the hard work and passion of Don Roberto, Maestro Alejandro, Juanita, Miguel, and countless others whose unwavering commitment crafts every unforgettable moment. Indulge in the pinnacle of Nicaraguan craftsmanship. Experience the allure of Epico Handmade Cigar—an extraordinary blend of heritage, passion, and the true spirit of Nicaragua.
