Santana Cigars

[B. Sellers]

Greetings--

In January my wife and I vacationed in the Dominican. While I was there, I bought a small box of 10 vanilla cigars made by Tabacalera Santana for a colleague and friend of mine. He loved them, and would like some more. Does anyone know where I might be able to purchase more of these without having to make another trip south? Thank you.

Part of the trouble with the name Santanais that there are at least three Santanas making cigars in Tamboril, Dominican Republic. That said, we make a very well received vanilla cigar that has been requested quite often.

If you wish, I can supply you, but you have to know that shipping will be heavy, unless I canfind someone going to the states.

Dear Mr. Sellers, The cigars you are talking about are made by Victor Santana and are made in the next tow towards Puerta Plata from Villa Ganzalez. I know he has a web site so try to lookin him up, he also advertises in Cigar Aficienado and Smoke Magazine, it should not be hard to find him, and his cigars are sold throughout the US He also makes cigars for Chucj Norris by the way, I am in the cigar business and have bought cigars from his factory Terry

Re: Santana & Luis Mindence's Cigars

I have smoked the cigars made at the Santana factory run by Luis Midence and can tell you that these are premium quality hand rolled cigars and are some of the best made in the Dominican Republic!!!

Mr. Moran, if you are referring to Victor Manuel Santana, I am sorry to informe you that he is no longer doing business with Chuck Norris-who is no longer doing Lone Wolf Cigars, either, except that there are some in stock-, and his factories are closed down as of right now. He is now working for Davidoff as a fraud inspector....The town you referred to was Navarete. There are three other Santanas that are doing cigars right now: The one making Victor Sinclair Cigars. The one making Puros Clasicos Dominicanos and Los Maestros Cigars. And one other one that makes private labels and short filler cigars. That's it.
