Sosa

The Sosa family began producing cigars in the early 1900's in Cuba. Originally the Sosa’s were tobacco growers, but began gaining knowledge and transitioned into a company that was dedicated to manufacturing and distributing quality hand-rolled cigars. By the early 1920's, the small village of Santa Julia, in... - More the Las Villas region that the Sosa family called home, began to get recognition for it’s superior tobacco. Duan Joan Sosa, the man who began the Sosa cigar business, was assisted by his son Arturo Sosa, as well as his grandson Juan Sosa. They worked for many years ensuring that their Cuban cigar was an elite product made from quality tobacco. Unfortunately, the Cuban Revolution forced the Sosa family to flee. The Sosa’s spent the next few years trying to locate a region that would contain soil that was as rich as the native Cuban soil that they spent their lives cultivating. They found this in the Santiago region of the Dominican Republic. The Sosa’s also decided to open a factory in Miami, Florida as well, and within no time, they were back in business. Although many new manufactures are attempting to institute new ways to blend cigars, the Sosa’s have stayed true to the traditional cigar, claiming that there is no point in altering perfection.
