Cigar festival announced

Granada, one of Nicaragua’s main cities, will be the first stop on the seventh Puro Sabor Cigar Festival, which is due to be held on January 22-27.

The Puro Sabor Festival is organized by the Nicaraguan Tobacco Chamber (CNT) to celebrate, and provide the opportunity for international recognition of, the tobacco grown and the cigars manufactured in Nicaragua.

“The festival has become a way of presenting our wealth of culture, history and traditions,” said CNT president Anielka Ortez. “We want our friends and clients to enjoy and learn more about our country and to let themselves be seduced by Nicaragua’s natural charms.”

On the third day, the festival will move to the city of Estelí, where those attending will have the chance to savor cigars on the farms and in the factories where they are produced.

They will have the opportunity to enjoy also gala dinners, cultural events and panel discussions of interest to those who want to learn more about cigar production in Nicaragua.
