In 1994, Dominican Republic was born our small independent producer of premium cigars, at that time called Corporación Tabaquera Dominicana. In 1998, our firm established itself in the local and international markets as manufacturers of our Rubirosas cigars.
In 2021 we became Rubirosa Company S.R.L increasing our capacity and ensuring quality control to guarantee that every one of our cigars is a work of art. Each Rubirosa is the result of dedication and expertise passed from generation to generation.
History tells us that the Tainos introduced tobacco plants to the conquerors, who sent them to Europe in the mid-16th century and valued them for their medicinal properties. By 1600, it was one of the main exports from this island.
By order of the King of Spain, in 1763, the first tobacco factory was established, and the fertile Cibao Valley became the agricultural heartland for tobacco cultivation.
The production and quality of Dominican tobacco have spread throughout the world. Currently, the country exports almost half of the cigars produced in the world.

Hand made cigars, using only 100% natural materials for their elaboration and processing.
“Having lived in the Dominican Republic for some time, I think I know the difference between a bad cigar, a good cigar and a great cigar. The first you find often, the second every once in a while and the third only if you’re lucky.
Well I must be lucky. I found Rubiorosas quite by accident, and I’ve never looked back. A clean draw every time, subtle yet rich flavors, an excellent finish; if you are looking for the next great cigar brand, you need look no further.”

Thanks for the tour of the cigar factory. Everyone that worked there was very friendly and took the time to demonstrate their craft. Cigar rolling is truly a form of art. Rubirosa cigars have a distinct flavor. As a female who enjoys cigar smoking, Ribirosa cigars are smooth and pleasant. I purchased the Polos and Caribes. These will make excellent gifts from the Dominican Republic for friends that live in the USA. Thanks again Ianir! See you in August when I return!

“For me, smoking a good cigar with a glass of Rioja or fine aged rum is a special experience, a time set apart from the ordinary daily routine. Since moving to Santo Domingo last year, Rubirosa cigars have become my favorites. I especially like the aromatic and smooth smoke of the medium-strength Caribe (43X6). I have visited the factory and have seen firsthand the expertise, the care and the pride that goes into each and every hand-crafted Rubirosa cigar. Whenever I return to Rhode Island, I carry a box with me to share with family and friends and it is always a big hit”

"I've been smoking cigars, good ones for over 30 years. Now that I am in Iraq smoking cigars is a serious business. Fortunately, a friend of mine sent me a box of Rubirosa Caribes. The experience was unprecedented, and I have ordered several boxes more. I doubt I will ever be able to go back to smoking inferior brands, no matter where they are from and who made them. Rubirosa is the best value, taste and quality that you can imagine. Rubirosa—thank you, you're the best."

I enjoyed very much the smooth flavour and the splendid aroma of Rubirosa cigars. They have the ultimate conbination between the strong bitter taste of a full body cigar and the easy going flavour of a light, rich tobacco blend.

"Rubirosa, more than a cigar, is a character piece, a slice of history
which comes to give us moments of exquisite pleasure without forgetting the essence of the land of men".
