El Credito Cigars

Since the 1960's, Little Havana has been home for many Cuban exiles. Although Cuban immigrants have found comfort in other areas of Miami, Little Havana is still a taste of back home for many people. The El Credito Cigar Factory was founded in Havana, Cuba in 1907 and has been in the Carillo family for generations. Ernesto Carillo left Cuba in 1959, and has yet to be back. His El Credito Factory doesn't look like the most appealing place from the outside. Comprised of stones from the 1950's, it's not exactly where you'd think that La Gloria Cubana and El Credito cigars were being made. Inside of the factory it seems almost as if you're going back in time. Cuban folk songs can be heard through the factory, and there's no "modern" offices in the facility.

El Credito cigars are actually factory seconds from this amazing place. Distributed by General Cigar, Carillo also makes El Rico Habano. El Rico Habano and La Gloria Cubana are some of the most popular, affordable cigars in the world. For a little over a dollar a stick, La Gloria Cubana is a amazing cigar. These El Credito cigars use the same tobacco, but rather than only sell the firsts, Carillo has decided to offer these excellent cigars for even cheaper! Carillo even once said, "We sell at a price that we are not getting rich on..." Fortunately for us, he also decided to put El Credito cigars in bundles, to make them even more affordable.

Carillo claims that his cigars are some of the closest to the classic Cuban cigars. We can't really argue with him, and most of our customer's can't either. His cigars are are consistently among the most popular sellers. For the perfect, affordable, medium-bodied smoke, El Credito can do no wrong. Using only the finest Dominican tobacco, and offered in either natural or maduro, El Credito cigars are a must for any smoker.
