Raices Cubanas, as the name suggests, was born from true Cuban roots. The Fábrica de Tabacos Raíces Cubanas factory was established on May 5th, 2003, in Danlí, Honduras by Romay Endemaño, his wife Maria (Lipa), and their son Hugo Endemaño. With a deep-seated heritage in Cuba's tobacco industry, the Endemaño family continued their legacy in Miami before setting out to create something of their own in Honduras.
Ralph Montero, also a native Cuban, came to the US in 1970 and began working in his uncle's cigar distribution business shortly after high school. With family ties to Cuba's thriving pre-revolution tobacco trade, Ralph's passion for cigars has spanned decades, contributing to the creation of several distinguished brands.
The paths of the Endemaños and Montero crossed in 1998, forming a bond that has only grown stronger over the years. From that first meeting to countless collaborations, they've shared a dedication to producing exceptional cigars. Today, we're excited to announce the official partnership between the Endemaño family and Ralph Montero, bringing together their experience, craftsmanship, and heritage.
We proudly invite you to savor every rich flavor and unforgettable moment within our premium lineup of cigars — crafted from roots that run deep.

Liga de Reyes - A blend truly fit for kings. Crafted with sophistication, this cigar offers a complex medley of flavors born from a masterful combination of seven distinct tobaccos. Each variety was meticulously chosen to harmonize perfectly, delivering a rich, layered experience that evolves with every draw, from the first light to the final note.
Though Clasico leans toward a mild to medium strength, it doesn't shy away from delivering a richly satisfying flavor profile. Each puff greets the palate with smooth, creamy notes, balanced by a subtle sweetness that lingers. Hints of toasted nuts and a whisper of spice create a refined complexity, making this cigar a perfect choice for those seeking both elegance and depth in their smoke.
C5 Black draws its name and inspiration from “el Corte Cinco”, or the Fifth Priming - when the last and upper most leaves known for their rich, full-bodied character are harvested from the plant. This premium wrapper is the cornerstone of C5 Black, infusing it with a deep complexity and bold flavor profile. Paired with carefully selected tobaccos from two renowned regions in Honduras, the result is a cigar that's both intense and captivating, delivering an unforgettable smoking experience from start to finish.
