Twenty years ago, Luis Cuao began building a cigar brand that would carry more than his name. It would reflect his roots, his journey as an entrepreneur, and his belief that the best moments in life are shared.
Born in Riohacha, La Guajira, Colombia, Luis has called the United States home since 1996. LC Cigars became a personal expression of that journey, bringing together his Colombian heritage, his life in America, and his passion for fine cigars.
Handcrafted in Nicaragua, our cigars draw on the distinct tobacco traditions of Estelí, Condega, and Jalapa. Each blend brings its own character, connecting the craftsmanship of Nicaragua with the vision of a Colombian founder.
“Twenty years after the first idea, we continue with the same purpose: to craft cigars we are proud to share and build relationships that last.”
LC Cigars — Legacy rolling forward.
