Enjoy the rest of this visual drink inspiration!The Entrada cigar was hand crafted exclusively for Casa de Entrada by Casa Fernandez. Using Cuban seed in their fertile Nicaraguan fields, Entrada is born from over three decades of experience. Entrada was specially blended only for Casa de Entrada by the master himself, Arsenio Ramos.

As a vertically integrated business, Casa Fernandez is able to control every step of the cigar making process ensuring that every time you light up an Entrada, you will get a consistently delightful smoke. From the authentic Cuban-sourced seed, seedlings are transplanted to fields and nurtured by hundreds of skilled tobacconists to harvest. In every inhale of Entrada, you will notice the care and love that went into the production of your cigar.

My cigar blending journey began in February 2013 discussing multiple cigar blending options, researching companies, and I could not find a better suited match than Casa Fernandez. Now I needed a blending partner who could match my experience. That person is my friend and general manager of S.G. Roi Tobacconist, Rusty McAulay. He fits like a glove. It’s almost as if he was in a box of cigars shipped specifically for me. He has an excellent palate, discernable taste, and definitely knows his way around a humidor. Our vision of blending a cigar was certain but the blend we would settle on was quite unclear. We were very methodical in making our tasting, sampling, construction and blending notes. Just remember you can sample all you want but until you are in the moment and see the facilities of your manufacturer, you can never be certain where to begin.

After a quick tour of the Casa Fernandez facilities, Rusty and I sat at a table where in front of us laid many cigars. We were about ready to get down to business. Arsenio Ramos master blender was sitting at the end of the table puffing on a cigar. He was examining and tasting the cigar like famous musicians Tito Puente and Machito as they mastered their Afro-Cuban Jazz and Salsa masterpieces. I have no doubt that it was a cigar he crafted just minutes before as he anticipated our arrival.
