Passion and Craft: The Romeo y Julieta Journey Through Time by Cigar Keep Ambassador Hassan AlTamimi

The captivating tale of Romeo y Julieta cigars begins with the two Asturian Spanish immigrants, Inocencio Álvarez Rodríguez and Jose "Manin" Garcia, who journeyed to Cuba at a young age. Álvarez spent many years honing his craft at the H. Upmann factory, eventually climbing the ranks to a director position. This deep-rooted knowledge of the tobacco industry would prove instrumental in his future endeavours. Driven by his passion and experience, he left his post at H. Upmann, and joined by his partner, Garcia, established his own cigar company inspired by Shakespeare's timeless tragedy.
