Key Facts

The Story

Aladino cigars were launched in 2015 by Julio R. Eiroa, a distinguished figure in the tobacco industry since 1962. The Eiroa family's tobacco legacy traces back to Cuba, where Julio's father grew tobacco since the early 1900s. After the Cuban Revolution, the family relocated to Honduras, where Julio began cultivating tobacco in Danlí in 1963 for Camacho Cigars. By the mid-1990s, the Eiroa family controlled the Camacho brand, transforming it into one of the most popular names in the cigar world. In 2008, Camacho was sold to Davidoff, allowing Julio to focus on his passion for cultivating tobacco. Named after an old movie theater in Danlí owned by the Eiroa family for generations, Aladino was born from Julio's desire to create cigars entirely from his own estate-grown tobacco. Partnering with his son Justo at the Las Lomas Cigar Factory in Honduras's Jamastran Valley, they produce Honduran puros that capture the authentic terroir of their farms, with some lines featuring Cameroon and Connecticut wrappers.
