DON PEPIN
Born in Cuba in 1950, third generation master blender Jose ‘Pepin’ Garcia rolled his first cigar at the young age of 11, and it was then that his passion for tobacco and premium cigars was born. After becoming a world-renowned master roller in Cuba and earning many accolades, Garcia began his journey toward even bigger goals.
In 2003, Garcia came to Miami and opened a small cigar factory called El Rey de los Habanos with his son, Jaime, and daughter, Janny. His early blends received critical acclaim and rave reviews. This was the perfect foundation for the company to grow, and it grew quickly. Leveraging the expertise that Jose Pepin gained from launching the Tatuaje, San Cristobal, or La Aroma de Cuba brands, he had the expertise to bring this vision to life. Along with his eponymous Don Pepin Garcia brand, all the pieces were in place for Pepin to take the company to new heights.
GARCIA VC IMPERIALES
The Series VC Imperiales represents Don Pepín García's more accessible side - still crafted with Cuban-inspired complexity, yet tempered for smoother delivery. The torpedo format accentuates flavour concentration, bruising spice into zesty wood, leather, and subtle toast. Ideal for those seeking depth without full-on intensity, it’s a reliable and flavourful expression in the Series VC range.
This is a full bodied cigar with a unique composition and blend where zesty notes of leather and cedar accompany a medley of hot peppers.
