La Antiguedad (Spanish for The Antiquity) is blended with filler tobaccos from three areas in Nicaragua—San Rafael, Las Quebradas and San Jose—all on farms privately owned by the Garcia family. It has a double binder, one of Nicaraguan criollo and one of Nicaraguan corojo. The wrapper is an Ecuadoran Habano Oscuro leaf. These tobaccos undergo a very strict and rigorous curing process of no less than three and a half years to guarantee exceptional quality.
