Born in Cuba in 1950, third-generation master blender Jose "Pepin" Garcia rolled his first cigar at age 11, sparking a lifelong passion for premium tobacco. After becoming a renowned master roller in Cuba, he moved to Miami in 2003 and founded El Rey de los Habanos with his children, Jaime and Janny. Drawing on his experience with the Tatuaje, San Cristobal, and La Aroma de Cuba brands, he also launched his own label, Don Pepin Garcia.
In 2008, Jaime Garcia created the My Father blend, an instant success. In 2009, the family moved production to a state-of-the-art factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, named My Father Cigars S.A. In Miami, a skilled team handles rolling, quality control, and distribution.
Today, My Father Cigars is one of the most acclaimed brands in the premium cigar industry, boasting numerous 92-plus ratings and two "Cigar of the Year" awards a rare achievement.
Product Detail
Originally released in 2012, the Flor de las Antillas was named after Cuba; the largest and most beautiful of the Greater Antilles islands. With artwork from the early 1900’s, the Garcia family once again honors the island / their birthplace with this latest creation. This ¾ to Full-Bodied blend is a perfect combination of Ecuadorian wrapper with Nicaraguan binders and fillers. The Habano sun grown Oscuro wrapper and the gentle box pressing give the cigar complexity and balance. The filler is a combination of tobaccos harvested from farms in La Estrella, La Bonita 1 and Las Marias, owned and operated by the Garcia Family. This cigar has an ideal combination of strength Exquisitiness / Elegance / Delicacy, with notes of creamy leather and a sweet and salty finish that resounds on the palate, producing a beautiful white ash giving it a great finish.
