Fourth Generation. Craft in Motion.

Our History

A Legacy of Craft, Hospitality, and Cuban-Inspired Tradition


The Foundation of Tradition

Second-generation cigar maker shaping the foundation of the Cigar Paradise family tradition

Early family tradition in handcrafted cigar making laid the groundwork for what would become the Cigar Paradise philosophy. From selecting and aging tobacco leaves to understanding balance, construction, and flavor development, each generation refined its knowledge through patience and practice.

This foundation was never about mass production. It was about respect, for tobacco, for time, and for the ritual that surrounds a well-made cigar.


From Heritage to Identity

As the craft passed through generations, Cigar Paradise evolved beyond tradition alone. Each generation preserved ancestral techniques while adapting to changing environments, markets, and expectations, bridging heritage with innovation.

This period defined the brand’s identity: honoring where it comes from while preparing for where it was going.


Where a New Chapter in American Cigar Culture Began

In 2008, Cigar Paradise entered the American market with a clear purpose: to introduce authentic cigar culture to Florida’s most iconic destinations through thoughtful hospitality, refined environments, and uncompromising quality.

What began as a single location in Madeira Beach has since grown into a multi-location hospitality ecosystem, encompassing multiple cigar lounges, each designed to reflect its surroundings while maintaining a unified brand identity.

              

Where Craft Meets Hospitality

Cigar Paradise is more than a cigar brand. Each location is intentionally designed to offer a refined yet relaxed atmosphere where premium cigars, carefully crafted cocktails, and attentive service come together naturally.

Hospitality is not an accessory to the experience, it is the experience.
