Rojas Cigars was founded by Noel Rojas, who earned the nickname “King of the Small Gauge” for his expertise in rolling small ring gauge cigars. Noel Rojas originally came from Cuba, after fleeing from it. In Cuba, he learned the art of cigar making at home, and after leaving, he moved to the United States and established an independent factory in Nicaragua. After a while, he made enough money and used it to smuggle more friends and family out of Cuba. Noel incorporated friends and family who also came with the knowledge from Cuba into the company and together with him raised the Rojas brand to new heights. The company currently operates from Nicaragua, in a former theater, where it produces premium series based on selected tobacco, with a strong emphasis on complexity, balance and the unique character of each blend. Rojas' uniqueness: - Specialization in Nicaraguan tobacco - most blends are based on Nicaraguan tobacco with touches from Mexico and other regions. - Small-diameter vitolas - a philosophy that highlights the richness of the tobacco's own flavors, not just its strength. - Diverse line of series - from the popular Bluebonnets and Street Tacos, to Statement and Anniversary, which are designed for lovers of more complex and deep cigars. - Meticulous production - each cigar is hand-rolled using high standards of quality control. In recent years, the company has become a strong name in the American and global markets, thanks to the combination of Cuban roots, Nicaraguan craftsmanship and constant innovation.
