About My Father

Founded around the García family’s blending and rolling tradition and launched in 2008, My Father is a Nicaragua‑based, family‑run brand led by José “Pepín” García and Jaime García. The core My Father line — often finished in Ecuadorian Habano‑Rosado over Nicaraguan binder and filler — is known for a pepper‑forward profile balanced by cedar, earth, coffee and chocolate transitions. The brand has earned notable industry recognition, including Cigar Aficionado’s Cigar of the Year honors for Flor de las Antillas (2012) and My Father Le Bijou 1922 (2015).

Nicaragua

My Father is the Garcia family’s signature expression—Habano‑Rosado leaf over a Nicaraguan core—designed to sit in the medium‑full to full lane. The Garcia fingerprint is unmistakable: an upfront black‑pepper edge that settles into toasted cedar, creamy passages and cocoa/coffee undertones. Construction is a recurring highlight—solid packs, steady burn and strong smoke output—while the brand’s vitola variety (including a box‑pressed Toro Gordo and a long Lancero) demonstrates how the blend shifts with ring gauge. Across runs the line has earned high marks for consistency and bold, well‑paced flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions
