Cigars and cigarmaking are one of the few traditional Old World crafts that remains unsullied by the passage of time. If anything, cigars are enjoying a renaissance period where quality and selection are better than they\u2019ve ever been before. But due respect is always paid to the time-honored traditions, so what better way to pay homage than to take a look at the world\u2019s oldest cigar brands?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>A Cigar History Snapshot<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Most historians agree that cigars originated in the Caribbean and Central America. Some say it was the Mayans wrapping cured tobacco in plantain leaves more than 1,000 years ago. But the first known exposure the Old World had with cigars came with Columbus\u2019 landing in Hispaniola (Cuba) in 1492. The indigenous Taino people of the island introduced Columbus and his men to the predecessor to the Cuban cigar, which were rolled in tender palm leaves. It\u2019s believed that Rodrigo de Jerez, one of the crew of the Santa Maria, was the first European to actually smoke tobacco and he helped introduce it to the Old World.<\/p>\n<p>For many years tobacco was exported to Spain and cigars and tobacco products were made there. About 200 years after Columbus\u2019 first voyage a man named Israel Putnam would bring the first cigars to what would become the United States shortly before the Declaration of Independence. He would also begin the first cigar production in the United States and brought tobacco cultivation to the Connecticut River Valley. From there the story gets complicated and heads in lots of different directions. But that&#8217;s part of what makes the cigar world what it is, rich and diverse, right?<\/p>\n<p><strong> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1040\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smokeinn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/oldest-cigar-brands-in-the-world-300x208.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"738\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smokeinn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/oldest-cigar-brands-in-the-world-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.smokeinn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/oldest-cigar-brands-in-the-world-1030x714.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/www.smokeinn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/oldest-cigar-brands-in-the-world-768x532.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.smokeinn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/oldest-cigar-brands-in-the-world-110x75.jpg 110w, https:\/\/www.smokeinn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/oldest-cigar-brands-in-the-world.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 738px) 100vw, 738px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Oldest Cigar Brands Ever<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With our cigar history primer in place, here is our list of the oldest cigar brands on the planet.

Before that, all legal tobacco destined for the Old World went through the Spanish Monarchy which dominated the tobacco trade out of Cuba and the production of cigars.<\/p>\n<p>Caba\u00f1as managed to survive a lot, but it effectively ceased to exist as we knew it when Castro nationalized the Cuban cigar industry.

They are the oldest Cuban cigar in continuous production. Founded in Cuba by Ignacio Larra\u00f1aga in 1834. Like many, if not most of the oldest Cuban cigar brands, the Por Larra\u00f1aga brand effectively split into Cuban and new non-Cuban entities following the revolution. These splits happened for a number of reasons, but The U.S. embargo on Cuban products is likely one of the biggest causes.<\/p>\n<p>The original Cuban branch went through some hard times with a serious decline in quality in the 1980s when they became machine-made for a time, but it has since returned to it\u2019s roots and the Cuban Por Larra\u00f1aga\u2019s today are considered very desirable.

This storied brand took its name from the medieval Punch and Judy puppet shows (like we said, odd). Unlike some of brands which split from their original Cuban connections, the non-Cuban Punch cigars out of Honduras are widely considered equal to, if not superior at times, to the Cuban original.<\/p>\n<p>Punch was one of the very first of the classic Cuban brands to reestablish itself in Honduras after the revolution and we\u2019re so glad they did.

They were known as pioneers and innovators in the cigar industry with many firsts. They have one of the more interesting backstories and histories among the oldest cigar brands in the world. For example, they were the first to introduce the cedar box as a preferred cigar storage medium. Hermann was a banker by trade, and gifted his bank customers with cedar boxes of his new cigars as a means to promote the bank, at first.<\/p>\n<p>The H. Upmann Demi Tasse was also President John F. Kennedy\u2019s favorite cigar. Legend holds that the night before he signed the Cuban Embargo, he had Pierre Salinger clean out the supplies of all 1,200 examples of the The H.

Easily one of (if not <em>the<\/em>) most recognized names among the world\u2019s oldest cigar brands. Even people who\u2019ve never smoked a cigar know Romeo y Julieta and Montecristo. The brand was founded towards the end of the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century by Inocencio Alvarez and Manin Garc\u00eda. But it was Jose \u2018Pepin\u2019 Rodriguez-Fernandez, former head of the \u00a0Caba\u00f1as factory in Havana who brought the company to higher heights and gave them their name.<\/p>\n<p>The name unsurprisingly, comes from Shakespeare\u2019s romantic tragedy. In fact, Rodriguez-Fernandez was so obsessed with the story of Romeo and Juliet that he even tried to buy the Palazzo Capuleti in Verona, Italy, Juliet\u2019s ancestral home to turn it into a cigar lounge. The local government weren\u2019t fans of the idea so it never materialized, too bad. His consolation prize was building an exacting replica of the Palazzo Capuleti in Havana.
