HVC Selección No. 1

Earlier this year, HVC Cigars opened up its own factory in Estelí, Nicaragua and now the company is ready to release the first line from the new factory.

The factory is called Fábrica de Tabacos HVC S.A. de Reinier Lorenzo and the cigar will be called Selección No. 1. It uses a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and fillers from Estelí and Jalapa, Nicaragua. Reinier Lorenzo, HVC’s founder, told halfwheel that he wanted to pay tribute to the old Cuban style.

Lorenzo told halfwheel that as of now, Selección No. 1 is the only line being made at the new factory, which currently has five pairs of bunchers and rollers.

“I went to the old classic Cuban style,” said Lorenzo. “I never forget where I came from Havana City and also I don’t want, later in life, to regret not opening my own cigar factory.”
