CREOLE ART DE VIVRE

Our Cigars

All our cigars bear exclusive names that refer to Reunion Island, through its history, its heritage or the endemic species that inhabit it. They are hand rolled in the Dominican Republic by talented torcedores. The mix of the different Corita lines has been carefully developed in collaboration with renowned Dominican Maestro de Liga such as Felix Reyes de Leon and William Ventura, whose expertise gained from the prestigious houses Arturo Fuente and Davidoff is recognized by all.

Hand made in Dominican Republic

The story of Corita Cigars began with a trip to the land of cigars, Cuba. Mythical country which gave its most beautiful letters of nobility to the legendary history of cigars.

True artisanal works of art, bearers of noble values, cigars and more broadly the universe related to them instantly charmed our founders Sabrina Fontaine and Jerome Monetti.

This discovery quickly turned into a real passion, and led to the organization of tastings and events between aficionados, on the small island in the Indian Ocean from which they come, Reunion Island. The immediate success of the events also highlighted the difficulty of obtaining supplies, not only of cigars but above all of quality cigars.

Thanks to their extensive travels around the world and their connections in the Caribbean, the project of designing their own brand of cigars became obvious.

Driven by the values ​​of Reunion Island society, quality of life, sharing and generosity, the birth of the Corita brand (COmpagnie Réunionnaise d'Importation de TAbac) is part of a long local agricultural tradition. Indeed, long before the cultivation of sugar cane, tobacco was the dominant crop on Reunion Island.

To pay homage to this heritage and to the values ​​to which the founders are attached, the first range of the brand could only carry the unique identity of the island of Reunion and the Creole art of living. The names of the various Corita modules testify to this and bear loud and clear the traces of this anchoring.
