JOYA DE NICARAGUA

Joyo de Nicaragua Cigars represent the enduring spirit of the entire industry. The power that rolled tobacco has to change lives and lift weary spirits. Like many, the brand began its journey when its creators fled the oppression of the Communist government in Cuba.

Simón Camacho and Juan Francisco Bermejo arrived in Nicaragua and soon set up shop. Taking notice of the fertile fields
in Estelí, Condega, and Jalapa, the two began what was then called the Nicaragua Cigar Company. The success was almost instant, and cigars from their company soon graced such hollowed homes as The White House.

But tragically, much of what the company built was destroyed during the Sandinista Revolution. As the country was consumed by civil war, the Nicaragua Cigar Company was forced to close its doors and seek safety. Things would not improve for some time, as nationalization of the industry and an embargo kept the company from returning to its former glory.

Things finally began to turn around when Dr. Cuenca was given control of the company. Under his stewardship, coupled with the mid 90s cigar boom, Joyo de Nicaraguan began to regain some of its past luster.
