Back in 2001, while visiting a small farm tucked away in a valley on the Honduran, Nicaraguan border; I was shown a wrapper leaf being harvested in very limited quantities. Grown on just a few acres and not intended for commercial production, I knew this wrapper was something special.

Over the next several years, I worked very closely with the farmer and purchased only the best wrapper from each harvest. I decided to keep a watchful eye and invest in this wrapper leaf for a special project. The time has come and that is why we call it Tempus. The tobacco used in this work of love are all from the finest fields in Central America.

These harvests have been small and not massed produced by the “commercial” growers usually tapped for such a project. The results are clear. Aged tobacco with a full bodied yet smooth, satisfying smoke sure to appeal to the most discerning smoker.

Available in 5 popular Cuban shapes (from Latin meaning):

From us to you. It’s time to enjoy Tempus.
