Mombacho Cigars is one of the few Nicaraguan cigar manufacturers with a destination factory that’s not located in Estelí. The historic building the company calls him is in Granada, Nicaragua, where tons of tourists happen upon Mombacho’s story and subsequently (at least we all hope) fall in love with the craft of cigar making.
The company’s not just a tourist destination, though. They’re making serious cigars, including the Mombacho Liga Maestro, which Cigar Snob called the No. 12 cigar of 2018. Mombacho master blender Claudio Sgroi dropped by our office with cigars and doughnuts for a chat.
