To explain why Altadis USA, the largest cigar company in the world,
has earned its way onto Robb Report’s Best of the Best list no fewer
than 12 times, you need only look the at the passion, quality,
creativity and craft that go into making its smokes.
For creativity begin with Altadis USA’s master cigar blender, Jose
Seijas. Known as “the cigar makers cigar maker,” Seijas says, “We want
to produce the best cigars ever constructed.”
Helping Seijas fulfill the promise of every Altadis USA cigar are
3,500 people living in the lush La Romana region of the Dominican
Republic. “More than employees,” says Janelle Rosenfeld, VP
Advertising, “they are considered family. They are also true virtuosos
devoted to their craft.”
Of course, it takes great tobacco to make a great cigar, and with
its considerable financial resources, Altadis USA procures stocks of
the world’s best tobaccos. Seijas likens the full flavor and smoothness
of Altadis USA tobaccos to cognac.
From the immaculately constructed, Romeo y Julieta Edicion Limitada,
to the Jose Seijas’ Signature Series, any number of Altadis USA premium
brands qualify as “great cigars,” or as Rosenfeld describes them,
“Affordable handmade luxuries.”
In addition to its passion for making the world’s finest cigars,
Altadis USA also has a passion for assisting those in need. Its
centerpiece event, the Montecristo Cup pro/am charity golf tournament
has been helping victims of natural and economic disasters in the
Caribbean and elsewhere for 10 years.
Passion, quality, creativity and craft, they are what make Altadis
U.S.A. cigars great cigars. And as smooth as the finest cognac.
