Charatan
London Claro Toro Single Cigar
The Charatan story began in 1863 when Frederick Charatan opened a tobacco shop in Mansell Street, London. There are many stories to tell; from the Charatan family's involvement until 1960 to the exclusive, highly popular cigars produced by Dunhill Tobacco of London in the 90's that made Charatan cigars the #1 Nicaraguan brand in the UK. Over 150 years later the story continues...
Charatan has been blended uniquely for the British cigar smoker using a subtle blend of Seco, Ligero and Volado filler leaves bound with an Indonesian binder from Besuki and wrapped in shade grown Java.
A few years ago, Tor Imports Ltd acquired Charatan from Dunhill Tobacco of London with the ambition of improving the product offering and reinvigorating the brand.
In 2018 they took the first step and transferred the production of Charatan cigars to Joya De Nicaragua; the country's oldest and most prestigious factory. This allowed them to maintain the unique blend of high-grade tobaccos and ensured that they could offer a premium handmade cigar at an affordable price.
As we enter the Roaring Twenties, Tor Imports are giving Charatan a new look that combines legacy and mythology with a bright future for the the brand.
CHARATAN CLARO - Tea Time's Perfect Companion
A blend inspired by morning and afternoon rituals, the Charatan Claro is adorned with a silky, light-tanned wrapper leaf. Derived from the tobacco term "Claro," meaning "light-coloured" in Spanish, the name captures the essence of our mildest blend, offering a smooth and creamy smoking experience. Cultivated under the natural shade of Ecuadorian skies from the renowned Connecticut seed, this exquisite wrapper is complemented by the Nicaraguan character of its binder and filler tobaccos, resulting in a brilliantly balanced profile that is both gentle and richly satisfying. Enjoy this small indulgence of grand flavours. Cheers!
