About  Casa Magna Liga F The Casa Magna Liga F Robusto is a remarkable creation in the world of cigars, conceptualized by the renowned Manuel Quesada Jr., a master blender noted for his top-rated and award-winning cigars. This particular line, Liga F, where 'F' stands for 'Fuerte' (meaning 'strong' in Spanish), was designed to offer a more robust and potent version of the Casa Magna series. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these cigars are handmade at the Quesada family's Dominican factory. They feature a blend of aged Nicaraguan and Dominican long filler tobaccos, encased in a hearty Dominican binder and completed with a top-quality Ecuadorian Corojo wrapper, known for its rich sun exposure during growth. Released in the fall of 2021 as an extension of the Casa Magna line, the Liga F Robusto offers a unique and intense experience for cigar enthusiasts.

  About  J.C. Newman Brick House In 1937, Julius Caesar Newman, the founder of the J.C. Newman Cigar Company, introduced the Brick House brand in honor of his family's residence, a brick house located in the Hungarian countryside.

Despite facing a decline in popularity, the brand saw a resurgence in 2009 under the leadership of third-generation owners Eric and Bobby Newman. They made the transition to incorporating Nicaraguan tobaccos into their blends. This effort gained recognition, leading to the cigar being named the Best Bargain Cigar of 2009 by Cigar Aficionado.

About La Galera  Anemoi In the Dominican Republic, the winds have their own stories to tell. The ancient Greeks called them the Anemoi and gave names to the winds coming from the North, South, East, and West - Boreas, Notos, Eurus, and Zephyrus, respectively. Here, we're going to focus on Zephyrus, the West wind. When Zephyrus blows, it's a sign that rain is on the way. This rain usually comes from the south of Cuba and flows along the coast between the Cordillera Septentrional in the north and the Cordillera Central in the south. These rain clouds are low and can't escape the valley. Before we had fancy tools to predict the weather, the people here knew that when the west wind blew, rain was coming. As the valley gets higher, the rain falls in places like Santiago, Tamboril, and Moca. These cities are important for growing tobacco in the Dominican Republic.
