It is therefore a tribute to all the Cuban farmers who have been growing tobacco in Pinar del R\u00edo for generations. Vegueros is produced in the \u201eFrancisco Donatien\u201c tobacco factory, a solid building in Pinar del R\u00edo. Cigars have been rolled here since 1961. The building was constructed in 1868. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The brand, which has completely reinvented itself more than fifteen years after it was founded, is now enriching its range with the Centrogordos Vitola (54 ring gauge x 100 mm length). An attractive option for anyone looking for a Habano with a medium to strong flavour. The cigar is affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Vegueros Centrogordos are offered with a new brand image in a metal tin of 16 pieces. This is a trendy format. It is highly appreciated by today's smokers and made accessible to a wider audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All Habanos of this brand are produced \u201etotalmente a mano con tripa larga\u201c - entirely by hand with a long filler - and have a medium to full-bodied flavour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"titel-1\">Vegueros Centrogordos celebrates its world premiere on Cura\u00e7ao<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-karibischer-habanos-tag-fur-vegueros-centrogordos\">Caribbean Habanos Day for Vegueros Centrogordos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"710\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Vegueros-Centrogordos-5-Event.jpg\" alt=\"The world premiere was celebrated in Cura\u00e7ao.\" class=\"wp-image-66948\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Vegueros-Centrogordos-5-Event.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Vegueros-Centrogordos-5-Event-768x545.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Vegueros-Centrogordos-5-Event-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Vegueros-Centrogordos-5-Event-624x443.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:1em\"><strong>The world premiere was celebrated in Cura\u00e7ao.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:1em\">The third edition of Caribbean Habanos Day took place at the Kontiki Hotel as part of a weekend full of activities.
