A legend was born when Julio R. Eiroa tamed the infamous Corojo seed and, with help from his son Christian, brought the new Honduran leaf into the mainstream through the Camacho brand. The Eiroa family has since moved on from Camacho, yet their exclusive Corojo tobacco is alive and well forming the basis for a broad spectrum of fine creations. While son Christian now heads up his own C.L.E. Cigar Company, Julio joined forces with another of his sons, Justo, to create JRE Tobacco Company and the company’s award-winning Aladino series.
Blended by Julio to capture the elegance and complexity of Cuban cigars of old, each Aladino cigar is composed entirely of Authentic Corojo tobaccos grown on the Eiroa family farm in Honduras. A smooth, medium-bodied smoke loaded with earth, spice, berry, leather and wood notes topped by a dusting of pepper and sweet cream. Named in honor of the theater in Danli, Honduras once operated by Julio’s father, which is now Christian Eiroa’s Aladino cigar factory.
