La Palina Cigars

La Palina is a storied American cigar brand originally founded in 1896 by Ukrainian immigrant Samuel Paley in Chicago, later revived in 2010 by his grandson William “Bill” Paley Jr. as a premium boutique operation. Now under the stewardship of industry veterans Sammy Phillips and Clay Roberts, La Palina produces highly rated handmade cigars across Honduras, Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Miami—including the coveted limited-edition Goldie line rolled at El Titan de Bronze—spanning expressions like the Blue Label, Black Label, Classic, El Diario, and Nicaragua Connecticut, offering medium to full-bodied profiles rich with notes of earth, cedar, caramel, pepper, leather, and espresso that honor the brand’s 125-plus-year heritage.
