The small, beautiful Central American country of Costa Rica is a popular destination for tourists, and an occasional producer of premium tobacco. Cigars with Costa Rican tobacco are fairly rare.
Indeed, even fewer cigars are produced in Costa Rica, meaning true “Costa Rican” cigars are hard to come by. For reference, roughly 2 million of the 380 million cigars imported to the USA come from Costa Rica (.5%). There are few — if any — major Costa Rican cigar brands.
Nevertheless, thanks to its extreme elevations, volcanic soil, and unique climate, Costa Rica has become an increasingly popular region to grow tobacco due to its smooth, balanced flavors.
Cigars with Costa Rican tobacco will usually have them as part of their filler section.
