Puro Sabor 2021: The virtual edition
Dear amigos, our world has changed during the past months, and that pushes us to find new ways to do what we love. That is why this year, the festival that reunited cigar lovers from around the world in Nicaragua has taken place in a virtual format.
With great pleasure, we reunited with some of our amigos worldwide for an inspiring and insightful conversation about the cigar industry’s positive impact in our country. We will tell you all about it here!
Puro Sabor 2021: second episode with Juan Martínez.
On Monday, March 29th, our very own Juan Martínez joined our friends Reinhard Pohorec and Raed from The Leaf Master Dubai to talk about the value and the economic importance that the cigar industry provides our country.
The conversation started with a video of our beloved Panchita. Juan stated how important it is her testimony to showcase the strength that cigar makers have to change the lives of the people in Estelí and Nicaragua.
Later, Juan introduced us in-depth to the raw numbers of the industry. He also explained how important are cigars and tobacco for the Nicaraguan economy. He shared with the audience significant data such as:
- Nicaragua has become the No. 1 exporter of Premium Cigars Worldwide.
- Nicaraguan cigars are available in 96 countries worldwide.
- +40k people are permanently employed.
As Nicaraguan, this is something we feel very proud of.
Cigar making is like a cluster…
Many factors and people make it all possible, from cigar makers, box makers, and many more. We will let Juan explain this part in the following video.
