Texas businessman Al Micallef has long been a cigar fancier. When a chance meeting with members of the Gomez Sanchez family happened as they were establishing their cigar making operation in Nicaragua, it was a match made in heaven. With Micallef's financial backing, they were able to put together an operation capable of making some of the finest and most innovative cigars available. All of their varied lines are superbly constructed and use some of the finest leaf in the world.
