Ricamontes, founded in 2014, is a Puerto Rican company that is deeply passionate about cultivating and crafting exceptional cigars. Led by owner Ricardo Ortiz and his daughter Risbel Cristina, our journey began with a dream of producing high-quality cigars that embody the authenticity and rich flavor of Puerto Rican tobacco. What sets us apart is our dedication to preserving an 80-year-old tradition while infusing it with a modern twist for the 21st century. Our tobacco is carefully cultivated, and each cigar is a work of art, blending Puerto Rican seed tobacco with an Indonesian Besuki wrapper. We offer a range of unique flavors and also provide the opportunity for private events where our master cigar artisan can craft cigars on-site, creating unforgettable moments.
