Cuban Cigar Workshop

Get ready to learn about one of Havana's important traditions! We'll meet at Faco Rivera and make our way to the Cuban cigar workshop.

Upon arrival, we'll welcome you with a complimentary drink and start to reveal the origins of tobacco in this Caribbean country. Pre-colonial civilizations were already inhaling the smoke of these plants 500 years ago. We'll tell you how Christopher Columbus' expedition changed the world of cigarettes forever.

We'll explain the different types of cigars that exist so that you can learn to differentiate them correctly. Then it's time to start making our own cigars! The technique may be a bit complex, but you'll enjoy the experience.

You'll also find out the best way to accompany a cigar when we serve you some Cuban rum and coffee. We'll learn the difference between the most typical local products and, as a highlight, you'll receive 2 Havana cigars as a gift.

Finally, we'll finish the activity after 2 hours of learning.
