San Cristobal Cigars

San Cristobal is a premium Nicaraguan cigar brand launched in 2007 through a landmark collaboration between the Levin family of Ashton Distributors and legendary Cuban-born master blender José “Pepín” Garcia and his son Jaime, making it Ashton’s first-ever Nicaraguan offering. Handcrafted at the Garcia Family Industrial Park in Estelí, Nicaragua using proprietary tobaccos grown on Garcia family estates, the portfolio spans multiple strengths: the original San Cristobal (Ecuador Habano Oscuro wrapper, full-bodied with dark chocolate, black pepper, espresso, and black cherry), the Elegancia (Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, mild to medium-bodied), the Revelation (Ecuador Habano wrapper, medium-full), the Quintessence (Connecticut Broadleaf), and the ultra-rare Ovation (triple-fermented San Andrés Oscuro wrapper with notes of dark cocoa, hickory, cedar, and coffee bean)—each showcasing Pepín’s signature Cuban-inspired complexity and impeccable construction.
