Viñales, Cuba

A family tradition, a century know-how, tangled between the dry leaves of Viñales.

Viñales' tobacco cultivation traces its roots back through generations, where each family's story is intertwined with the growth of this plant. The historical significance of these fields is not just agricultural; it's a narrative of resilience, perseverance, and cultural pride. Beyond being a cash crop, tobacco holds immense cultural importance for the families of Viñales. The passing down of farming techniques, rituals, and the art of cigar-making from elders to youngsters forms the cultural backbone of the region.
