Don Emilio Ahmsted established this brand in 1852, then during the
1880's the factory was purchased by Ramon Allones, who kept it's
labelling, the traditional trimmings and, more importantly, remained loyal to it's consistently superb quality. These cigars are named
for the character Sancho Panza in "Don Quixote" the famous novel by
Miguel de Cervante.
Sancho
Panza cigars are medium bodied, with the classical Cuban mellow flavour.
Toffee, dark chocolate and coffee bean notes can be detected alongside
salt, pepper and spice, they are slightly floral, perfumed and distinctly
aromatic . All of this range are handmade and, if you wish for a
dramatic effect, try the famous, enormous Sanchos or the shaped head
Belicosos. Be warned, they are not for beginners but oh such wonderful cigars!
