Quintero - Favoritos - Box of 25
A box of 25 cigars, the connoisseur's choice for laying down and ageing.
Quintero's robusto: an approachable, everyday Habano.
Quintero was founded by Agustín Quintero and his four brothers in Cienfuegos, one of the few Habanos brands not born in Havana. Totally handmade with short filler, it is classed by Habanos as medium in flavour.
