blend with four kinds of tobacco from 4 different countries to
remind the brethren that we all must travel (at least spiritually)
from the four corners of the universe to seek the truth.
Recently, you moved your entire production from Nicaragua
to the Dominican Republic. Why did you do it?
Many factors played a role in the most challenging decision
that we had to take by moving our full production from one
country to another. During Covid, we had a tough time getting
production (cigars and boxes) from Nicaragua. Before that, we
initiated an excellent relationship with Abe Flores (member of
the ProCigar association) in the Dominican Republic, who at
that time started rolling a few limited releases for us that were
very successful of the highest quality tobacco and construction
and delivered in a timely fashion. This move proved crucial in
continuing to build on our successes, with the new rebranding
of the boxes and bands but keeping most of the profile intact.
We consider that having a factory willing to go the extra step
with us is an essential component of building and keeping that
relationship. So far, we believe that our requirements are well
established at the new place.
What does the future hold for you and fans of the brand?
The touch of mystery curiously enough worked in the company's
favor. Hiram & Solomon Cigars became a discussion
topic among smokers and the media that discovered that our
biggest secret is that you don't have to be a mason to appreciate
the fruits of a creative process inspired by the Freemasons.
We hope that the creation of these cigars will bring a
positive experience to all types of people who love cigars all
over. Our experience may inspire someone else to follow their
dream and never give up. At the very least, we are confident we
have provided a consistently tasty, quality cigar that appeals to
everyone's palate. We will continue to do so with more complex
varieties and unique cigar accessories and continue to donate
back to charities.
