Enrique Sanchez-Icaza, the founder of Global Premium Cigars, is known for crafting cigars of exceptional quality such as the 1502 brand whose cigars are named after gemstones. However, he wanted to offer a more affordable cigar that can be enjoyed every day. Thus, he created the Cachitos a wallet-friendly cigar that showcases some of the finest Nicaraguan and Honduran tobaccos. Short in stature, but big in flavor, the Cachitos is perfect for when you want to take a moment to relax and enjoy. The Chachitos is handmade Nicaragua by Plasencia Cigars.
Cigar Origin
Nicaragua
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.
