La Galera Chaveta 6 inch by 54 Ring Guage
The La Galera Habano is an authentic Dominican cigar, hand-made by the best rollers of Tabacalera Palma, and it shows the construction is flawless. Blended around an outstandingly flavorful Ecuadorian Habano wrapper with a Dominican grown Corojo binder and filler made up of Piloto Cubano, Criollo 98, and Pelo de Oro from Blanco’s prized Dominican farms. The result is a medium-to-full bodied aromatic blend, a spicy smoke, that deliver rich tobacco flavors that are very well balanced between strength and flavour.
José “Jochy” Blanco III is a fourth-generation tobacco grower and second-generation cigar maker, currently serving as CEO of Tabacalera Palma in Tamboril, Dominican Republic. His family’s tobacco legacy began with his great-grandfather, Manuel Blanco Lozada, who emigrated from Spain to the Dominican Republic in the mid-1800s. In 1925, Jochy’s father, José Blanco II, founded Tabacalera Palma, becoming one of the country’s first cigar manufacturers.
Jochy, passionate about tobacco from an early age, has spent decades perfecting the craft of growing and producing cigars. His factory, Tabacalera Palma, has earned global recognition for its high-quality cigars. Inspired by a painting of cigar rollers from nearly 80 years ago, Jochy created La Galera cigars, symbolizing the birthplace of his products and the culmination of his family’s dedication to the craft.
