Vegueros Centrofinos Tin of 16. The ‘Centrofinos’ is a classification for the leaves of the sun-grown tobacco plant harvested from around mid-way up the plant. This cigar is a unique size within the Habanos portfolio and the largest of the Vegueros range.
A new vitola for the Vegueros portfolio ‘Centrofinos’ 5⅛” (130mm) x 50.
Introduced to the market in 1996 as a full-bodied brand, Vegueros pays tribute to the generations of men and women who have cultivated tobacco in the renowned plantations of Pinar del Río.
The brand was relaunched in 2013 with a slightly lighter medium-bodied blend in new sizes and presented in unique tins of 16 cigars. Since then packs of 4 cigars have also been introduced.
Vegueros, which translates to "Farmers" in English, proudly retains its rustic charm. Drawing inspiration from the vocabulary of Cuban farmers, the names of the new vitolas reflect this heritage, with "Centrofinos" being no exception. "Centro Fino" refers to a classification of sun-grown tobacco leaves harvested midway up the plant. Typically, these leaves, known as Seco leaves, contribute to the blend of a Havana cigar, valued for their satisfying taste and aroma.
Vegueros Entretiempos are creamy as they flow into your mouth with a strong earthiness and grass flavourings. As you go through the cigar, you are met with pepper flavourings with a growing intensity.

The Vegueros have a special intensity in its blend that reflects the taste of the local people. Long filler, totally handmade using filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo tobacco zone, which is the main source of tobacco for Habanos and the only zone in Cuba that grows all types of leaf: wrappers, filler and binders.
Originally made for the Cuban market in mind, this belicoso cigar has strong earthy notes and later on more notes of pepper combined with thick smoke.
