About this cigar
Even a gentle breeze can ruin the experience of a handmade smoke, but don’t tell that to Dominican cigarmaker and tobacco grower Jose Jochy Blanco, who is looking to use the power of the wind with his new brand, La Galera Anemoi.
For those who have forgotten their ancient Greek mythology (or never knew it in the first place), the Anemoi were wind gods given names that represented the cardinal direction from which their breezes came. Due to the influence that the wind could have on everyday life, the Greeks worshipped the Anemoi to a degree. Winds can also play a minor role in how well a field of tobacco grows, hence the name.
La Galera Anemoi uses Dominican tobaccos grown by Blanco for its filler and binder. The filler is a mix of Criollo 98 and Piloto Cubano grown in La Canela, while the filler is a Corojo binder from Blanco’s farm in Jacagua. These elements are covered by a dark, oily Connecticut broadleaf wrapper that Blanco says has been ageing for many years.

Questions we get asked
Provenance, packing and storage, answered plainly.
Is this genuine, and where does it come from?
Yes. We buy La Galera from the authorised UK distributor, so it arrives with duty and VAT paid and nothing in between.
How will it be packed?
It goes out in a sealed pouch with a free Boveda 69% humidity pack, which holds the cigars at roughly 65 to 70% humidity while they are in transit. We ship Royal Mail Tracked 24, or Special Delivery if you would rather.
How should I store it once it arrives?
Keep it in a humidor or an airtight box with a 65% or 69% Boveda pack, somewhere around 18 to 20°C. British houses get very dry in winter once the heating goes on, so a sealed container makes a real difference.
