View from the Masaya Volcano, a landmark that captures the richness and exoticism of our beloved Nicaragua.
IN1968<br />
WE IGNITED NICARAGUA<br />
It has been a turbulent but rewarding journey.<br />
We pioneered an industry, arraised from a gunned and burned<br />
down factory, dealt with a decade of embargo, and a lot more.<br />
OUR HISTORY<br />
The history of Joya goes hand in hand with Nicaragua’s evolution over the<br />
last five decades as one of the most complex and enchanting countries in<br />
Latin America. The richness of our history allows us to be conscious and<br />
humbled of who we are, while allowing us to talk about our experience<br />
with authenticity. We invite you to explore our beginnings and our<br />
traditions as we continue to build towards a future full of hope.<br />
1970<br />
The Golden Years<br />
Joya de Nicaragua becomes the official cigar brand<br />
of the White House. Nicaraguan cigars start to be<br />
known as an exquisite alternative to Cuban cigars<br />
after the Embargo, with Joya leading the bunch.<br />
During this decade, Joya de Nicaragua gained great<br />
popularity among cigar smokers all over the world<br />
1968<br />
The birth of Joya<br />
On February 29, J.F. Bermejo and Simón Camacho<br />
established Nicaragua Cigar Co., the country’s<br />
first cigar manufacturer, at the heart of Estelí.<br />
They produced Joya de Nicaragua, the first national<br />
cigar brand to be marketed worldwide.<br />
1979<br />
Revolution and Civil War<br />
On 1979, the Sandinista Revolution brings the<br />
Somoza’s dinasty to an end. The factory, destroyed<br />
during the war is rebuilt by the workers and the<br />
production starts again.
WE ARE<br />
THE SPIRIT<br />
OF NICARAGUA<br />
We are proud of our history. We’ve learned a lot from years of crafting.<br />
Our process and people are the escence of Joya de Nicaragua.<br />
OUR CRAFT<br />
Our cigars are handcrafted by the most skilled tabaqueros using the<br />
finest tobaccos. They have been handcrafting cigars, on average for more<br />
than 28 years. The Joya process is completely human centered, with each<br />
leaf processed and every cigar rolled and cared-for by hands; it’s focused<br />
on consistency and special attention to details. All of our cigars are filled<br />
with the essence of our people; their experience and passion are what<br />
makes Joya what it is.<br />
1980<br />
The Reconstruction<br />
The company was nationalized. A commercial<br />
embargo by the US government forced Joya de<br />
Nicaragua out of its most important market.<br />
To surpass this obstacle, Joya de Nicaragua<br />
and its other brands are exported to European<br />
countries and Canada.<br />
PRESENT<br />
Evolution & Innovation<br />
Under the leadership of Dr. Alejandro Martínez Cuenca, Joya<br />
has seen great succes with cigars reminiscent of its glorious past.<br />
Antaño 1970, Dark Corojo, Cabinetta Series, CyB and more<br />
recently Cuatro Cinco and our latest JOYA RED just to name a<br />
few of the great cigars we’re proud of.<br />
Our growing executive team, together with Drew Estate and<br />
our international partners, ewstablished the perfect alliance of<br />
authenticity and innovation.<br />
We are the Spirit of Nicaragua.<br />
1992<br />
A New Era<br />
The revolutionary government is no longer in power and the<br />
war ends. After a decade of embargo, the authentic Joya de<br />
Nicaragua returns to the United States with great success.<br />
In 1994 Tabacos Puros de Nicaragua S.A, owned by Doctor<br />
Alejandro Martínez Cuenca, acquires Nicaragua Cigar Co.<br />
There is a growing demand for Nicaraguan cigars.<br />
Dozens of factories open in Estelí, and the rebirth of the<br />
Nicaraguan tobacco industry begins.<br />

THE ORIGIN<br />
Joya de Nicaragua Clásico was the very first Nicaraguan puro exported from Nicaragua,<br />
and the only brand to have ever been officially recognized as the country’s national cigar. It<br />
is currently the best selling cigar for Joya de Nicaragua in the European market.<br />

intricately blended to be a smoke comprised of the finest tobaccos from four independent<br />
countries of origin. CyB is the first joint cigar creation of the Joya de Nicaragua factory<br />
