The slogan of Henri Wintermans cigars is short yet very vivid – «100 years of experience rolled into each cigar». When you try one of their cigars, no matter which size and kind you go for, you can actually feel the history behind every draw. The company manufacturing this brand was founded in 1904 and is currently among the top producers of high quality cigars in the world. Once the tobacco leaves are harvested the process of curing takes about 3 to 4 weeks, which is when the leaves become brown. During the period of fermentation that ensures full development of the tobacco flavor and taste the dried leaves are stacked in big piles. Following the fermentation stage the tobacco leaves are sorted by their color, size and even texture and prepared for shipping. During transportation and after they have been delivered the dried leaves are kept at temperatures below zero. The exact composition of the cigars’ filler is an industrial secret of the Henri Wintermans company, but it is known that it can contain up to 30 different kinds of tobacco imported from different countries of the world. Each cigar comes individually wrapped and combines the unique blends from Cuba, Brazil and Indonesia as one of the company’s founders traveled a lot to secure its company a large share of the domestic market.
