Suspiro CT Short Robusto Cigar (4 x 50)

Manuel Quesade became the first cigar manufacturer to work out of the Santiago Free Trade Zone in the Dominican Republic when he launched his Manufactura de Tabacos S.A. cigar factory there in 1974. The story goes that he made it all happen armed only "with $100, a chair, and a phone!" With over 50 years now in the business, his children, nieces, and nephews have now begun working in the business as well to carry the company to the next generations.

The Suspiro line is named after a Dominican sweet treat that was a favorite of Raquel and Patricia Quesada that they enjoyed at the factory when they were growing up. The cigar has a sweet tip and comes in two blends, Connecticut and Oscuro. Shown here is the Connecticut Short Robusto, also offered in a Toro vitola. The blend features a Connecticut wrapper, Dominican binder and a mix of Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers. This dessert might just be exactly what your sweet tooth is looking for!
